Nicole: I did the same tonight. Phoebe was just soooooo tired, wouldn't fall asleep on the breast even though her eyes were drooping - she just kept pulling off and crying. I laid her down and patted, stroked, then picked her up and cuddled etc. No good. So I put her down and walked out. She went to sleep in a couple of minutes. I knew she was tired and it was driving me crazy! I think the negative (impatient, LOL!) energy from me was keeping her awake.
BG: Gosh, how scary re your collapse! Hope you are recovering ok.
I am still chuckling about wine in a box too - I haven't told my dad cause he'd slap me upside the head and say, "Child! Have I taught you NOTHING?!?!?"
I so KWYM about this fickle weather. Tonight the girls had a bath at Mum and Dad's and I dressed Phoebe in a cotton long-sleeved suit. Then we got home and it felt several degrees warmer! So I had to change her. I have been keeping a fan going in her room and dressing her a little warmer as it seems to be the most comfortable for her... Not sure I'll like our electricity bill, but so be it.
Jacinta: I do understand about enjoying going to work. It's time that you can be just you again and certainly a great learning curve for your DH (I can't believe he has gotten away with 8 months of not cleaning up any poo!!!). I felt the same when I went back to work after Natty. Plus, it really helps you enjoy the time you do have with the little one.

I am going to bed already I think! LOL, I have been so tired and Phoebe has slept pretty well the last few nights so hopefully I will have a good one and feel really refreshed tomorrow... hopefully. I have been such a cranky cow of late. And tomorrow I have a few job applications to write and I want to do a good job of them. I will hear this week if I got the job that I interviewed for last Tues, but I'm not hopeful. I rang my old boss a couple of days ago and told him to ring or text me if they called him, LOL! He hasn't contacted me so that means they haven't contacted him. I reckon that means I haven't got the job. Sigh. Ah well, there are a few more options out there for me. I will get cracking on it tomorrow.
Hope you all have a restful night. xx
