    Another mum of a crappy sleeper here
    Glad to have read through this and found a bit of good news. Well done on getting out to your MG, hope you can connnect with some of the other mummies there. And REALLY good news on resettling bubs.
    The hug-a-bub got us through our hell in the early days.... and once he slept (at all) during the day, we found his night sleep improved also. We've had good and bad periods with sleep, but he still sleeps very little. Don't mean to sound disheartening, was just going to second the poster who said your body adapts and you cope.
    All the best to you

    Its a difficult road to be on - with no end in sight - and its easy to lose hope - lack of sleep is a KILLER.

    Well done for getting out today.. there's not many days that i actually leave the house - the prospect of two having tanties when I'm out scares me to death!!

    There are lots of people here that have been where you are at the moment - and they made it through - so there is hope there!!!!!

    Hopefully one day this will all be a distant memory - and he'll grow into the most well behaved toddler EVER (well ya gotta hope for something good!!)

    I'm here if you need to chat mate

    So pleased for you hun.

    I was the same, people kept telling me to get on AD's, but I just knew if I could get some sleep I'd be ok. I found it pretty hard to talk about for awhile....but ummmm I'm obviously FINE now, I never shut up!
