    Usually 530.. Am on a fast day today with the 5:2 diet though! Though I have been a grumpy *** lately so I think I might see how I go and take a few days off

    Not even chocolate and wine can help when you have a screamer the day seems to go so slow. When I get a day like this I tend to want to cry but keep telling my self 5.30 will eventually arrive. I even have to pop the screamer in a cot for 15 mins in the evening with their bottle to let them chill. Usually this settles them a lot

    Thanks for
    The tip!! He was good in the end, funnily enough we went out in car to toddlers and when we got there he went off and never looked back even though he had never been before lol!! I couldn't believe it cos in the house he didnt want me to leave the room even though he could see me in kitchen still! Fell asleep on way home and got him into buggy to sleep, he cried for about ten mins but then he slept for an hour and ten mins!! He doesn't sleep at home and is breastfed to sleep, rod for their own backs but what can you do, poor mite. He was like a different child in afternoon after sleeping , we took my daughters to their swimming lesson and he played happily with the other kids there and was playing happily when mum arrived!

    Crying now cos he is knackered and won't go to sleep but I am determined to get him into a routine! Apparently he won't settle for mum on way home so dad is now going to collect
    This evening with mum following behind in case he needs breastfeeding ., don't know what that's all about ! Dad won't be able to pick up for half hour after mum and although they are on a day rate I hope mum will be able to keep collecting or all three mindees will be leaving at 515 which is mental enough with two at the same time.. The mums have a chat while the kids are left to run riot and one of them pushed the other one five
    Times the other day before they left!!! Grrr!

    He was ok for a while but it now materialises he doesn't sleep well, he is exhausted and can't understand why I am not breastfeeding him! Why oh why do parents make rods for their own backs?! Apparently dad is gonna collect this pm with mum driving behind cos she can't settle him on way home.. Don't know how that will help, she maybe does need to breastfeed him when she picks him up before a 45 min drive!!

    As far as I can see for all they say he self feeds he eats very little, his poo still smells like a breastfed newborn.. It's not fair on him is it?

    Yep! But dad works near here and she doesn't but would be going home from here I guess but sure it would be quicker from work! Hope it doesn't become regular as mum told me she would be picking up everyday half an hour earlier!

    Give it another couple of weeks. How does the child drink milk now from a cup or a bottle?

    From a cup with me reasonably well but I don't feel it's enough when he isn't eating naff all!

    Took him out for walk in buggy and he stopped immediately, then fell asleep , slept on when back so hope he sleeps a while, he seems to be better in afternoon when he has had a good nap.

    Thanks tess you kept me sane this morning knowing you were 'on the other end of the line' .. Appreciate it xx

    Slept an hour and 15 mins and still
    Giving out, have given him some calpol as he just seems miserable so maybe his teeth are at him too.. Have text mum and told her so she was saying she might pick him up early. It's a fine Line isn't it cos you don't want them to think that you can't cope but you have to tell them if they aren't settled ESP if you might not be able to manage it long term!
