    I Need Sleep!!!

    My poor little man is really sick and is having trouble sleeping. i've been up with him since 2.45am and i've just managed to get him back to sleep. now i'm just sitting here waiting for my toddler to wake up-he's usually up at 6.30am everyday-so i can't even have a rest now that my baby's asleep.
    not even sure why i'm posting this, just wanna feel better and know that i'm not the only sleep deprived person out there. please tell me i'll get some sleep soon!

    Aww you poor things .

    You WILL get more sleep, I promise . It's awful when they are sick, it really disrupts their sleep. But the good news is that he will get better.

    You take it easy today .

    If you can plan a relaxed day for you all, maybe a PJ day with no house work and a few movies. I find these sorts of days after no sleep at night help me deal a bit better. Hope you can get an early night tonight and your little one is better soon.

    Just letting you know I am getting no sleep either.... DS is sick, and even when he's well he feeds all night. DD1 and 2 have had flu so I've been tending to sick kids for 12 days now. In that time I have had nights of 1 hour sleep. also it's school hols and we're all stuck here.
    I will think of you at night and know im not alone, even that makes it a tiny bit more bearable. Hope your bubba better soon. It's awful seeing them sick isnt' it... xoxo

    Oh no - hope things improve soon. We've had a few weeks of this as both kids here seem to like sharing their germs. It has been horrid - but seems to finally have passed.
    Take care of yourself - forget the housework etc and take it easy.
