Evening all.. I'm ignoring a yelling child at the mo... sleep has gone all wrong the last week or so, and we are back to CC again. Fun fun fun

Izzy had a mega nap this afternoon, so ate tea later than normal, we went to the allotment later than normal, then she wanted to go to the park. We made some new friends, and Izzy got lots of cuddles from an older man
Then by the time we got home it was already 8. And now she has had milk and we are battling sleep.
I hope everyone else is having a quieter evening (and has had a chance to eat their tea by now!)

My mum and dad say that Benjamin is like going into the past for them. He is like me in every way, looks, mannerisms, non-stop chatter, cheekiness and stroppiness

This also made me actually LOL (but it is easier when hubby isn't around to ask questions
) - have you read the description for those shoes? 'I only wore them for 10m because one shoe is longer than the other' :rotfl::rotfl:
Pink Princess - how awful for your friend. I was glad that at least 1 person on the thread didn't know about it and that she will be one more person to look out for problems. xxplease listen to MFD - she is a wise woman

Thanks
I just had a panic on lol E went to bed at 7.50pm and he just woke up a min ago and I am sitting here thinking noooooo dont be thinking your bed is just for sleeping in for 45 mins lol, I gave him his dummy back and I think he's gone back to sleep
I am wondering if he is waking in the night for attention now? cos he did 4 nights in a row of just waking at midnight then not again till 7am, whereas the last 3 nights he's been up at 10, 2 and 6, so I was thinking maybe if he wakes at 10 to try and give him his dummy back first rather than going straight for the bottle? I mean its fair enough if he wakes a midnight, cos I dont think he is ready to go all night without a bottle, argh I dont know what to do lolDebt £30,823.48/£44,856.56 ~ 06/02/21 - 31.28% Paid OffMortgage (01/04/09 - 01/07/39)

If it's any consolation kindof I still don't know what to do either!! It's only been a recent thing in this house that we are actually able to settle T without feeding which made me wonder if we could have been doing this weeks ago but we didn't try. I used to immediately feed him!!
Now I play it by ear and try to settle him in the night but if he is proper crying and won't respond to me flicking the glowworm on then I tend to feed him, as it seems if he is gonna settle then he quietens down quite quickly and keeps shutting his eyes, even though he fights it for a little bit. Well either that will have helped or confused u even more har har!!
PS T also woke up about 15 mins ago and he settled back down too, I just assume it's where he stirs during his sleep cycles, I wouldn't think it's cos he thinks he's only having a nap, as surely they are much more tired and want to go back to sleep. See, more confusing waffle based on nothing!!Baby Toby born 17th Nov 09 :j0
