I just let ds sleep after, think it takes it out of them. It's good of them to give calpol though!

Has ds1 chicken pox gone? Ds2 hasn't got it?

OP posts:
Cupcake92 · 07/01/2016 22:54

Yeah bless him he's slept loads! But will cry every so often.
And I know I was shocked they gave him calpol!

DS1's chicken pox are almost gone he still has a few spots left :) and DS2 hasn't got it yet! But apparently it's 14-21 days till he could come out in them after DS1's have scabbed over. So he could still get it Grin

How's ur DS ducky? I hope u get a good sleep tonight!

Where's Lulu ? :(

zombiemeow · 08/01/2016 07:40

Omg ds actually slept last night Shock he woke up twice for his dummy then woke up at 6.20 (which is the latest hes slept in ages) and for the first time in months he didn't wake up screaming! He was just chatting to himself ShockShockShockShock

Yaaaaaay!! Well done Ducky's DS!! Grin
Bet u both feel better after having sleep! :D woo!

zombiemeow · 08/01/2016 10:42

I actually feel really tired Grin strange isn't it.

Now comes the tricky part.... Getting him to have a nap Hmm

OP posts:
Cupcake92 · 08/01/2016 21:46

Hope u managed to get DS to nap!

DS1 has been asleep in bed since 9 tonight hoping he stays asleep!
DS2 is also asleep but I need to give him his antibiotics at 10:30! His eyes are still infected bless him.

Cupcake92 · 08/01/2016 21:46

Lulu where are youuuuuuuuu? :(

zombiemeow · 08/01/2016 22:13

Fingers crossed for you cupcake! Ds had a nap but woke up tired.

Ohhh luuluuuuuu?

Hope your ok sunny

Cupcake92 · 09/01/2016 07:32

I completely jinxed it. DS was coughing all through the night and sounded like he was choking! So I spent the night running into his room every 10 mins to check he's not choking. Then DS2 woke up at 2am because I kept going in and out the room. So I'm exhausted right now Grin
How did ur DS sleep?

Sunny how's ur DS doing? Is he sleeping?

zombiemeow · 09/01/2016 10:11

Oh no cupcake, this awful cough seems to be doing the rounds!

Ds had probably one of his best nights ever last night Shock he went to bed at 7.30, woke up twice but went back to sleep before I got there, then he woke up for about 10 mins in the night screaming until he did a big fart then slept til 5. He got up 5-6 then slept in our bed taking up almost a whole King size bed until 7.20 ShockShockShock

I don't know why he doesn't sleep because he obviously can do it Hmm

OP posts:
Cupcake92 · 10/01/2016 03:43

Oh wow well done to ur DS!! Grin

I'm having an awful night.
It's 3:38am and I've not been to sleep yet!
DS1 has a cough and he forces it out on purpose so makes himself sick!
And of course wakes his brother up so I have both of them up all night.
Feel like breaking down as I'm so so tired and I need to sleep.
I'm fed up that I get all this and their dad gets nothing! He gets to have full night sleeps every single night cuz he won't have the boys sleepover because of work as apparently he needs his sleep when he's not at work the next day because he's up at 4:30am when he is at work and if he doesn't sleep In on his days off he'll be to tired for work.
Pisses me off.

Sorry for my rant but I'm so annoyed and tired. :(.

zombiemeow · 10/01/2016 13:07

Cupcake AngryAngry your exh is an utter knob. He is not the only one who needs sleep. So unbelievably selfish. I hope you managed to get some kip.

Have you spoke to any solicitors about divorce?

OP posts:
Cupcake92 · 10/01/2016 19:49

Don't get me started on that lol Grin because he hasn't done anything wrong there's no grounds for divorce so I can only divorce him once we have been separated 2 years then I can file for one. It's nearly been a year tho!
But court costs about £410 and that's a lot for me!
But I've been told I could get help with the costs if I'm still earning what I earn now.

DS 1 has a temperature :( I'm sure my kids are always ill Grin

zombiemeow · 10/01/2016 20:43

Couldn't you do unreasonable behaviour based on his behaviour when he was with you? Or can't you divorce based on something or other differences (can't remember the word) or have I been watching too many movies?

Oh no I hope he's feeling better soon. I think there's a lot going round at the moment. My ds still had a cold at the moment Sad he's always ill too!

OP posts:
Cupcake92 · 10/01/2016 21:31

See it says under unreasonable behaviour verbal abuse, which I would have said it was but then says threats etc. But it was many threats it was insults mainly. I guess i could just start the petition form and see but I still need £410 for court fees so would need to start that first n fill in the form for legal aid.
I don't know why they can't just be simple lol!
But now DS2 is here I can concentrate on getting this done. Plus I feel stronger in myself to do it now.
If that makes sense.

It's so strange how similar our DS's are Grin

Cupcake92 · 10/01/2016 21:32

I wonder where Lulu is? :(

Cupcake92 · 11/01/2016 05:20

I'm so exhausted with them both being constantly ill :(
It's never ending.
So tired I can't type properly Grin keep having to delete a word and re write it a few times Grin
DS1 woke up at about 2am, he cried and was quite upset so I let him come in my bed.
An hour later he woke up suddenly again and just threw up all over the bed :(
So had to do a late night bed change and Wack sheets in the wash and then wash DS!
DS2 has been fast asleep through all this lol.
Then DS wanted water and his beaker was downstairs so I just decided I'd move us all down stairs as its be easier and DS2 can sleep I his Moses basket down there.
As soon as I'm downstairs and I'm filling his beaker up with water he throws up again all over the floor Sad
So of course I had to wash DS again and clean up.

I'm so exhausted I've not slept properly for days :( and it's not even my newborn baby keeping me up. He sleeps the whole night through!
I just don't get why DS1 is always ill or just doesn't sleep!!
Am I doing something wrong?

Oh here we go again :( he's just sat up and said 'poorly'
And doesn't look too good.

zombiemeow · 11/01/2016 10:31

Afaik legal aid doesn't exist for family matters now unless there is dv or your classed as vulnerable, but I'm not too stew. May be worth speaking to a solicitor, most of them offer free 30 min appointments.

Oh no, poor ds... And poor you! Did ds2 sleep through the whole thing? Maybe you should speak to your gp about seeing a sleep consultant? You must be exhausted SadThanks

Lulu has vanished Sad

OP posts:
zombiemeow · 11/01/2016 10:32

*sure

Not stew. I'm definitely not stew.

OP posts:
Cupcake92 · 11/01/2016 13:26

Oh no I think ur right there! Ah buggar. I'm gonna see who I can speak too.

Yes DS2 slept through it all Grin he's an amazing sleeper! Just wish DS1 was too. Think I might make him a doctors appt and speak to them. He goes to school next year so would rele like this to be sorted by then as he'll rele need his sleep then

Cupcake92 · 12/01/2016 21:53

How is everyone?

DS2 is still ill, full of cold :(
DS1 fine as usual Grin
And I've started sliming world today! I weigh a lot more than I expected!!

Cupcake92 · 12/01/2016 21:54

Slimming**

zombiemeow · 13/01/2016 00:49

Did he get over his sickness cupcake?

I was going to do slimming world but thought it was very expensive then ds stopped sleeping so the stress made half of me fall off.

Very tired here, ds is up and just won't settle Sad

OP posts:
Cupcake92 · 13/01/2016 06:11

Yeah he stopped being sick, he even went to nursery yesterday but hes been left with an awful cold :( keeping him up all night.
I'm so tired I've had no sleep for quite and few days.

Yes slimming world is expensive online, I'm going to the meetings which are £4.95 each time which isn't too bad. I'm only going to go till I've got all the tips etc then I'll stop going and just carry on doing the diet at home.

Oh no u have a wide awake DS too :(
ducky I think u and me need to go to a nice spa where u have calm massages and heated sun beds and also a sleep therapy thing where u wake up and feel like uve slept a whole year!
Grin I'm just dreaming now haha!

zombiemeow · 13/01/2016 06:14

Haha sounds like a plan going until you have all their secrets Grin

OMG that spa sounds amazing ShockShock such a bad night last night!
