....that fellow sleep deprived mums are giving advice to others in a similarly desperate position. I mean, I can't fathom it myself so not sure what useful advice I can really give anyone else. I will however continue to spread my pearls of 'wisdom' and hope you others do too.

It's because we're all too tired to realise that our advice is useless

I know, I cling to any glimmer of hope no matter how small

It is a bit ironic, I admit, but have really appreciated advice from people who a) have been there and b) don't have it all sown up. Somehow advice from anyone else is hard to take because it is either easier said than done type stuff or often amounts to 'oh do controlled crying, you big wuss' type suggestions!

Ahh Lilysma, you are so right. There is comfort in knowing we're all in the same muddled boat.
