She has got me to breaking point!

Have you got a sling or carrier? On bad days I have put DD in our ergo and just gone about our day and she falls asleep eventually - not ideal but gets her to sleep and means I still can cope with DS. Good luck

I have hit this point and my bubba is only 8 months old. Last night I found myself screaming at him to shut the hell up and go to sleep, while he was hysterical at 10pm. I just wanted to kick his hammock (yikes....) Don't know what to do when nothing else works! I'm just hoping like hell that I'm getting it over with now so it doesn't happen later! Hugs to you.

I can really sympathise witth the tired, cranky, clumsy fall over then get hurt scenario. My 2.5yo is doing this a the moment, she hates her day sleep and will get hysterical if I try and get her to go to bed during the day. She really still needs a day sleep though as she becomes so upset and injury prone if she doesn't get it. I've given up the bed idea and now make her lie on her fold out lounge with a book and if the tv is of she falls asleep in about 10-15mins. She is that bit older though.

Funny thing is she goes to family day care on thursdays and sleeps in the bed there no problems, go figure . I have asked her if she likes to sleep in her bed and she said no and I asked the same thing about childcare and she said she 'likes lindas bed'. If only we could see what goes on in there beautiful little heads sometimes life would be so much easier.

good luck and as the others have said get some time for you ( I love taking a book in the bath, lighting some candles and getting df to keep the girls busy lol)
