Feeling SO down today.

[lourobert]

I rarely have these days anymore but when one hits me its like a two ton truck. I think alot of it has to do with current sleep deprivation. My ds seems to be sleeping through 2 out of 7 nights and I know I should be grateful for those 2 but the 5 nights of broken sleep are taking its toll. My MIL is having him tonight and Im going to bed at 7

My colleague who sits over had just asked me if im ok...I was until he asked that. Im fed up with the constant appointments. We had 3 yesterday and although they were very encouraging in terms of how DS performed,my one day off work in the week so was rushed. Im having to take half a day today as we have a big meeting at my ds's nursery and above all I feel so guilty for shouting at ds asking him to just go to sleep and even asked him why he cant just be 'normal'.

I just feel awful and tired and grumpy and needed to vent I think. Right (deep breath) and back to work!

big hugs. Know what you mean about endless appointments, endless fraking phone calls (feel like dd's PA but without the salary) and just wanting some normality.
dd is at SN school this morning then its a 2 mile walk to the hospital for hanging from the ceiling physio and there's no bloody buses that take wheelchairs so 2 miles back again in the pissing rain. Tomorow is visual assessment at the eye hospital at 10 then 2 at a totally different hospital to see her paed. argle.
Don't go back to work Louro, watch this nothing like some Weird Al to make you smile.

Sorry you're having such a rough time of it atm. xx

I really feel for you as if you don't get the unbroken sleep, at least 5 1/2 hours I think they say, everything is so much harder. Have you tried melatonin with your DS?

My son IS on melatonin and it was working like a dream.....feel better now and Ive given my ds a big hug to aplogise for my grumpiness last night, he having a bath a grandmas before spending the night and im off to bed...right now!!
