Parenting after Miscarriage or Loss ~ March/April 2010

[Willow]

That is wonderful news Michelle I'm the same, I can't quite come at George just yet, so if it's OK, I will stick with Omar too until the little dude arrives earthside. I have done the same with all my babies, I just can't seem to officially name a bub in utero PS I am glad to hear it arrived safely

Bek - You poor thing. I understand how you must be feeling, it is so awful. I don't know what to suggest but Jayne has some good ideas - have you tried music or wrapping? D is still wrapped and I find it does help him to settle because he can't crawl around the cot so much. I leave one arm out and he usually gets the other arm out too and rolls over on to his tummy so I am confident it is safe for him. I have been thinking this week about trying music with him at night too. We have been having our own issues and they don't seem to be getting any better either but I am getting two good sleeps a day and he is generally waking twice at night. But early evenings are a nightmare, especially since he's been sick, as he has suddenly decided to stop self settling at bedtime. It literally happened overnight and I am praying it will pass soon. It is soooo tiring and frustrating. If you ever want to talk you know where to find me

I'd better go... just popping on to check on Michelle and Omar. BBL
