Hi Shayna, a question is never stupid if you dont know the answer! MCHN stands for Maternal & Child Health Nurse, CIO stands for Cry It Out and yeah CC is Controlled Crying. It was a day stay thing, 9am - 2pm.
Don't worry about JD taking off at the shops, Luke still does it and he is 4 1/2 I bribe him now and it sometimes works but I have to keep reminding him. Sounds like you are having a tough time keeping your cool at home too if he was saying sorry sorry.... Could a day of childcare be an option? Not sure how much it wil cost but it will give him a break from you and Abby and you a break from him. Nothing wrong with needing a break from our kids. I used to put Luke in Child Care for a day a week for the same reasons, I would get really stressed out and find myself not liking him very much sometimes I realise now that it was his behaviour I wasn't dealing with, not actually him - I love my boy. Now he is at kinder 2 mornings and 2 arvos a week our relationship is beautiful. He gets the opportunity to play with his mates and muck around without having to hear me coming down on him for not puting his toys away (mainly because I am so tired). You;ll work it out anyway xxx

Al- Hope you can get back into your old routine. Your DH is right, what does it matter if she has 4 or 5 feeds? You'll get back into your rings, hope you could cover up your coldsore bloody things I hate them grrr.

Hi everyone else xx
