Tanya - you may have to let her cry from 15 minutes so you can eat.
Unfortunately bubs tend to do this

I had to carry DS the whole of DH's xmas party (6 hours) and was exhausted but he wanted his mumma. I gave him to DH so i could go to the toliet/change DD and he screamed the whole time but he just took him where i couldnt hear it.

Have you got a sling? Perhaps family can wear her in a sling?
