Mar. 30th, 2011 08:59 pmHaving a bad day today. Liam didn't go to sleep last night until 11, so he didn't wake up this morning until 11, which put our whole day out of whack.
We had mother's group today and all the mum's had bad days with their kids! Liam just won't nap even though he is absolutely exhausted. He's been crying/wailing all day and I don't know. He's not teething or anything.
I finally nursed him off to sleep at about 4pm and put him in his cot but he woke up wailing 5 minutes later. I tried to pat him / console him instead of picking him up but it just got worse. I *know* this is what they're going to want me to do at sleep school but I don't think I want to. Thing is, I need *something*. He is obviously tired but refuses to sleep, or to sleep more than 10 minutes. Even in my arms he won't go for longer than 20. Anyway, I am going to go to the sleep school as I've been on the waiting list for months now, and if it sucks then I'm just going to go home.
I lay down and nursed him to sleep at about 6, and we slept together for about an hour, but he kept waking up and wailing, so I stuck my boob back in his mouth each time. I don't know, it was like he was having nightmares. He was even breathing all erratically while he was sleeping.
So he woke up at about 7:30pm, which will put his night time schedule all out of whack again. I'll have to wake him up early tomorrow and just deal with a shit day.
Adam and I had the 'when are we going to have the next baby' talk because we have to work out our finances, whether we move house etc. The answer is 'sooner rather than later'. My period hasn't come back yet, and who knows when that will happen, so I'm just going to go off the pill and wing it.
Liam did have a good old smiley chat with one of the little girls at mother's group - then saw her holding hands with another boy later on! What a floozy. :p
I dressed Liam up in a shirt and corduroy pants today.
