please say someone did?

dd4 was up between 11pm and 3am. not settling, wanting to stroke my arms, kickingme, clambing about, getting in and out of hers and my bed (we are part-time co-sleepers and never have this problem usually).

then once she fell asleep, dd3 woke up sick, and spent the next 4 hours up and down being sick.

dh is working the late shift and wont be back till gone 10. dd3 is now asleep again, dd4 looks ready to go soon. i want to sleeeep.

DD 18 months also refused to sleep last night.
I put her in bed with and she must have fell asleep at some point as I woke up with a stiff arm from holding onto her.
Hope you have a better night.

i have broken out the chocolate and the kettle is on.

friends are rallying around getting older dd's to their xmas parties tonight, and my dad is picking them up from school shortly as well.

poor dd3 has been running a temperature all day.

just hoping baby doesnt decide to arrive tonight as i am exhausted.

Am very sorry you had such a bad night but having been on here for a few years, I had a wee smile at your DH being out at work. I remember a time when that wouldn't have seemed possible!

but dd3 is feeling better, and no more vomit.

making sure dh takes his keys with him tonight
