Well you took so long I'm about to make my second, I'll get you one too
You quite regularly have nights where you're up every couple of hours at least, don;t you?

geordiemacminx · 25/11/2007 07:03

Oh yeah - its seems to be worse at the momet for some reason. And like I said, dp doesnt really help things - if he had given him a dream feed at 1 the chances are he would have slept til at least 4 maybe even 5... which is crap but a lot better than last night. Still he's quiet happy sitting on the floor playing with a packet of baby wipes at the moment - infact he has kept himself entertained for almost an hour which is good - become a lot better on that front sice he learnt to sit up - before that he would get fed up after 5 minutes!!!

StealthPolarBear · 25/11/2007 07:10

at your dp
mine's similar, once he's decided to do or not to do something logic won't change his mind
We've found that T's a lot more able to entertain himself now, and we get a lot less crying for no apparent reason, in fact yesterday he didn't have his dummy at all , apart from at night. If this night problem thing ever gets sorted I might use it as an opportunity to wean him off it

StealthPolarBear · 25/11/2007 07:11

it does seem like most babies are having sleep issues at the moment, must be a growth spurt!
well my cold is better, I can smell stinky nappy again

geordiemacminx · 25/11/2007 07:26

Well I made him some porridge with chopped up banana - he didnt want that - thought he must be tired so lay him on the sofa next to be to try and feed him back to sleep - the little toad thought I had made him an assault course an proceeded to climb over me and the sofa and the laptop... ARGHHHHH I'm sure he must have 666 tattooed on his body somewhere...

This is the problem with him having a bad night - he gets all out of his routine programme

StealthPolarBear · 25/11/2007 07:30

lol at human assault course

StealthPolarBear · 25/11/2007 08:03

I didn't realise I was being so unreasonable.

Am in tears now, dh in work and the boys wondering why mummys crying.

Guess I'm not over the pnd if things like this are getting to me

PillockOfTheCommunity · 25/11/2007 11:53

you are not being that unreasonable at all runny, unfortunately threads where people get free childcare often go that way!

I will try Octo, not promising it will work though!
