I found the sleep!!

Comment Published at 00:4700:471 comments1 comments13 Visits13 VisitsReport

As some of you might know, I have been having a few problems with Sebastians sleeping habits at night.  Well we did the controlled crying for 2 nights and the 3rd night he slept right through!

Its amazing how sleep deprivation can alter the way you look at your child.  After the first couple of days, even 3 or 4 it doesn't really matter.  You think "that's what babies do".  But after a week of only getting 4-5 hrs a night you start looking at this creature a whole lot differently. 

I didnt want to play with him, I forced smiles.  It was horrible.  I am happy to report though that after 2 good nights sleep I am well and truly ready for the next round of torture he decides to throw at me  (My mum is talking toilet training already )

I am also happy to report that we have found a home based day care lady to take him 1 day a week to give me a break.  We dont have any family or friends here so I am with the kids 24/7 and it can get a little noisy in my head some times.  So I have decided to kick him out on Wednesdays so mummy can have a noise free day.

I cant wait!!  I am sooooooo looking forward to having a "me" day.  I can go to the hairdressers, I can do some sewing, Hell, I can sleep all bloody day if I choose!  It will be so nice to have those few, sweet hours where nobody wants anything from me!  Now I just have to keep my hubby off me.  I know what this will mean to him........  FREE SHAG DAY!!!  He will think that coz the kids aren't here it will be a perfect opportunity.  I know I should be thinking the same thing but I have to be selfish and say that all I want is 1 day a week to be left alone!  I will have to have a chat in advance I think and warn him.

Well, thats all the latest with us. See you round like a fruit loop[.
