DD has suddenly decided that she is not going to fall alseep on the boob anymore, in fact she is not going to fall asleep at all after her last feed, for about an hour, but I Can't leave the room until she does!!!
Driving me mad!!
Had to send DH up for his shift of sitting pointlessy in the room until she drops off a little, then try to sneak away only to be foiled by our shadows crossing the door!!
Oh my god! What am I to do with a creature like that.
But seriously! Help!!

CC, how long do you let them scream?
DH can only manage 10mins!

Oh, I know what you mean
To hear them (DH/DP) sleeping soundly whilst you are jolted from your sleep the moment you LO makes a sound.
You just want to give them a shove, so that you are both up!
Then, when you do get that extra hour in the morning when Dh is off out to work, you feel guilty for feeling that way.

Can't win, for this guilt thing, can you!!

Oh my goodness!! She is bad tonight!!
She won't even stay lying in the cot unless I stand looking over her. If I even move an inch she is up.
And the Screams!!

I can't take it, it is making me cross and I really don't want to be that way. Think I might cry with frustration instead!

Oh!
Hang on a minute!
Silence!?
Wow!

I left the monitor in my room though, now I am afraid to go up my creaky stairs for fear of disturbing her!

Wow, though! Can't believe she has gone down!
Will let you know if it lasts
