Immoral_angel's Debt Diary

immoral_angeluk

God what an awful night. She woke up at 10 so we brought her downstairs for a bit to tire her out and give her a bottle. After a fight she drank 7oz and finally went to bed at 11 before waking up in a crying fit at 12.30. I gave in and brought her into our room. She then proceeded to wake up pretty much every 45 mins until 3am when I gave her a bottle. She then refused to go to sleep instead kept crying and getting angry about god knows what before falling asleep at 4.00. She then slept til 7 before kicking off again.....
I'm so tired I can't even describe but I'm supposed to be going on that hen day today.... feel like saying I'm ill, selling the kids and going back to bed!!!!!!!!

Morning IA, Sorry to hear about your rough couple of nights. We have just recently been through something similar. chloe is 18 months old and for the last two months has been ratty all day and thrashing about in her sleep at night, crying! We put it down to teething, tiredness, early terrible twos, anything.

Then last Friday night we went to a family get together and she fell asleep without having her normal bottle of milk. And she slept through. A lightbulb went on, and I worked out that she had been awful since I started her on cows milk. I put her back on formula and it is like having a different child. I have since caught up on my sleep and feel like a different woman.

Not for one minute implying that K is suffering from some kind of milk problem, just wanted to share really.

How old is K, what milk is she on? Have you eliminated hunger. I know she has been teething and that can go on for quite a while. Chloe got loads and it seemed everytime one set came through another set started to come through. Also I found that if Chloe was overtired and hadn't had enough sleep during the day she became more difficult at night.

I am writing this through a haze after having my eyes done yesterday. If anyone had told me that I would have felt like I had had my eyes burnt out with two red hot pokers, I would not have gone through with it.

I had 2 x 800g Ibuporfen, 2 x sleeping tablets, anaesthetic drops, and two glasses of wine last night and was still in agony. Surprised I woke up this morning. Feel a little better although I haven't got the benefit of being able to see yet as everything is quite fuzzy and I am having to wear sunglasses (which Chloe broke and I have sellotaped them together a la Jack Duckworth!)

Good luck on the meeting with the Ofsted woman. And good luck to ste! Hope things go well for you.

As to the tiscali fair usage policy. Unless you download absolutely loads and loads you should be okay. We got a couple of warnings (when son still lived with us - too much !!!!!! I think!) but have had none since he moved out.

She's on SMA gold and has about 5-6oz roughly 4 hourly. Ste wants to try her on the hungry baby milk but I'm not so sure...

Hope your eyes feel better soom

Maybe its worth a try!

Penny-Pincher!!

Hi IA

I would try her on SMA white for hungrier babies. When DD was 2 weeks old she was waking through the night and guzzling the Gold, moved to the white and she slept for 7hrs:D....nothing worse than being completely knackered.

We moved DD into her own room at 6 weeks, the first few nights were rough, but then she settled and slept through. Does she have alot of wind/colic? Or could she be teething? Does she sick up any milk after feeding?

Your doing so well and read your postings daily.

Chin up.
