I used to be the bedtime queen! I've got dd1 7yo and dd2 14 months. Used to have a bath then lie with baby and give her milk whilst dd1 gets in pjs, baby goes to sleep so I could lie and read with dd1. Both asleep by 730-8pm
For the last month or so neither of them will go to sleep! I bounce between the 2 bedroom returning dd1 and trying to settle dd2. It's taking 2 to 3 hours! I work and have to get up at 6am and they have to go to nursery and school. It's ridiculous. I was fully prepared for controlled crying with baby tonight, only to discover she can climb out of het cot!
I'm so stressed I'm panting! They ate asleep now but now I have to get everything ready for tomorrow. And I really really can't cope without Amy relaxing time.
Any suggestions?
