LaL, I rememebr whe i was PG with G and I had a antenatal appt, I had to take all 3 dsses with me and they were, without a doubt the most appallingly behaved children there. I even phone the MW after to apologise.
I was sooo embarrassed and soooooooo unbelieveable angry I could have takem to the clinic and abandoned them, it was that bad. They were horrible, annoying, rude little f*ckers....and to make you feel better I pretty much told them that in the street when we got outside with the whole town as an audiance.
Anyway, what i'm trying to say is that we've all been there, DS1 is the one who I find hardest work but I expect so much more from him being the eldest. I know how crap it is when they play up when you really need them to behave and the do the exact opposite.
Unfortunatley I haven't found the solution yet...I think you just have to start each day from scratch amd forget the shite day you had with them yesterday.
And anyway I'm a really crrp mum because ds3 starts school in sept and the school has had 2 open days for them to come in a meet the teachers, play in the classrooms and make friends with their new class mates and I FORGOT BOTH DAYS.
Now that is crap parentimg.
