I had a horrible three hours last night as a mummy. Started at 1am with DD waking, actually that wasn't too bad as she just wanted a cuddle and a drink and back to sleep. But she's 2.5, she doesn't understand quiet. So she woke up DS i think. DS was awake anyway just after that.

And I just couldn't comfort him. He was so distressed... I tried patting and soothing in his cot, got him out for a feed in bed with me, he just bit me, twice. When I told him no he lost it and started thrashing around...

Cuddles didn't work, rocking didn't work. He's only got 4 teeth and had his hand stuffed in his mouth so that combined with the biting lead me to think maybe a tooth? So I gave him some panadol... But he didn't go to sleep for an hour and a half after that, til almost 4am.

And I just couldn't comfort him. Felt like a crappy crappy mummy - couldn't make my boy better
