May 07 Darling buds of May crawl this way...

Sorry, best I could come up with in between making tea and trying to get Lils off to bed before the football starts...

don't know if this helps but the only way we got G to setle himself to sleep in his bed was by leting him cry - we did it for day naps first so that his whole night routine wasn't upset and we were then trying to do it with an overtired cross babes,

he cried for 30 mins both day naps on day one and one of the day two naps, he cried for ten mins on second nap of day two and then five to ten mins on day three.

after that he was more or less ok, and that included nightimes, where we could finally put him down awake. This was when we was about seven or eight months old. Over a couple of weeks before that we got him used to a blankie and took the dummy away at the same time as changing the nap routine - cruel parents that we are. I hated listening to him cry so did it on a weekend whilst dh was there to sit on me!

PJ get some earplugs and go for it just imagine having your bed all to yourself again without a wriggling monster in it. Defo do it this weekend while DH is not there they do complicate things. Good luck with it and remember we are here to keep you occupied should she throw a mahoosive tantrum at being left to cry it out.

LG&T glad you went to the docs, I promise you will come out the other end a stonger even more amazing woman than you are now.

Now can anyone help me gave the whinging fabby Archie some nurofen at 8am now when is it he can have calpol with it he really is a miserable sod baby today.
