3yo has been crying for no obvious reason
6 month old now up even earlier than normal wanting milk, which will mean she’ll wake even earlier for another one
I’m so tired. How will I cope on my own with them tomorrow? Who knows
anyone else?

Oh no. Can you give your 3 year old some calpol?
Maybe in pain?

Thanks everyone. I survived and tonight has already been much better - toddler quiet and just the one get-up now with the baby so fingers crossed we get back to sleep til morning!

Re surviving the day, we used to have a sleep together during the day, maybe with Kipper or Bob the Builder on video in the background, snuggled together under a duvet while DD was in her cot. I would give up trying to achieve anything while they sleep.
