    Thanks heaps girls.
    I can't hear her in her room so i think she might have gone to sleep. I'll keep an eye on her. It's only been about 10mins that it's been quiet for.

    i am not sure what to do. Do you think maybe if you just laid down with her in bed and give her some cuddles and tell her how special she is and how much you love her? Maybe she feels she isnt getting as much of your attention now DD2 has arrived (not that you can help that in anyway) she just isnt used to sharing you. I hope she sleeps well tonight xo

    No other hidden cuts or infections? My big one is too old for screaming (she's at the whine and complain age) but sometimes she gets tiny cuts or splinters on her feet (sometimes hands, sometimes gravel embedded in her knees, then this one time she got gravel embedded in her forehead), they get infected and they hurt like hell but don't give an all-over fever. Upset tummy/gas would do it too.

    Hope she's better today.

    Try an amber teething necklace (long term solution) and for short term, just breathe in and out with her.

    You know, like yoga breathing -

    In ... (through the nose)
    Out ... (through the mouth)

    Just sit on the floor and say that. I find that when DS is like that, if I breathe out loud for 5 mins or so with him he'll calm down and tell me what's wrong ..

    Thanks everyone.
    She's woken up this morning with a clear runny nose and a yucky sounding cough, so on top of all the other stuff she was getting sick My poor bubba princess.

    (on the other hand... this will be my first major challenge... a newborn and a toddler who is sick/grumpy and cuddly)
