Can't control my temper when I'm this tired.

Ds is 9 months. We've just moved to a much smaller flat for various reasons and his cot is in my bedroom. I bf to sleep, then he is up 2 or. 3 times a night. He has started to bite me. I give him formula too in the hope that it will fill him up but he won't sleep unless I bf him (I know I know, that is all wrong. But that is the situation I am in now. If I could turn the clock back I would).

I am back at work. I am so so so so tired. Ds is up for the day at 5.30. I cannot take it. I feel so angry - angry at dp for not doing his share (he constantly complains about tiredness, and is always working so doesn't help during the day, although he does make a big effort to do more). But what is more worrying is that I have started to feel angry at ds. I feel like I want to run away and/ or punch a wall. I dread going to bed because it is like going into a torture chamber. Getting enough sleep is not an option. Wtf can I do? Has anyone else felt like this and got through it?

Oh, that last post was me again - I didn't realise I had somehow managed to mess up my own username!
