We have two single mattresses on the floor in DS's room. Through the day I put them on top of each other (when I have the energy and can be bothered) Looks like a single bed. At night I put them next to each other on the floor and sleep in there. At least DP doesn't get disturbed and if DS does sleep for a stretch you can roll away and get a bit of a sleep in your own space, before then next call anyway. I find it easier than getting up and down continually it just makes me even more tired, I didn't think it was possible but it is

I tried the running him ragged and exhausting him through the day and it doesn't make any difference with him. If he gets too much stimulation it makes it worse. I think with him it's his little brain that doesn't seem to switch off at night. He even talks in his sleep, laughs, cries, counts etc When he wakes he's quite often telling you something about the day or even a month ago. I'm hoping when his brain development starts to slow he'll sleep better... Isn't that around 4 or 5 though omg I don't know if I'll last that much longer. Well that's my only remaining theory anyway lol Maybe he's just torturing me for past and present life atrocities who knows

Kaz I hope you have a better night tonight
