Well yesterday I did a bit of crying, well a lot :cry:
We've serious financial problems at the minute but that was just the cherry on top of my low mood of late. We've had a cold, and Isaac hasn't bee too well after his 3rd immunisations, and what's really draining me emotionally is bedtime.
He was going down just fine before his jabs, but since them he's not been, and it's back to high pitched, horrible screaming crying and sobs and its just so hard :cry: He WILL go to sleep if I lay with him, but we had got out of that and it was working just fine and now to go back is just so hard.
Anyone else's LO's change after their 3rd imm's?
Isaac's also started biting down hard on my nipples which is really upsetting me sometimes, I'm taking it personally which is stupid I know but just feel like I'm bad sometimes because I resent Isaac not having this 'routine' anymore, and I know it's not his fault, he shouldn't be doing anything but now we're back to tears at bedtime, and with having cold it's just been a hard bloody weekend to be honest, think my insomnia's coming back too as I can't sleep properly either, but that's just probably money troubles, and who doesn;t have those.
Moan over, thanks for listening :oops: :hug:
 
you need a good night's sleep, and lots of these :hug: :hug: :hug: :hug: :hug: :hug: :hug: :hug: :hug: :hug: :hug: :hug: :hug: :hug: :hug: :hug:

Have you thought of trying controlled crying to get him back into his routine?

I know it seems hard now, but it really will pass and things will settle down.

I hope the money worries sort themselves out too...... :hug: :hug: :hug:
 
Awwwwww hun sorry to hear you have had a bad weekend, have these :hug: :hug: :hug: :hug: :hug: :hug:

It could be the jabs have made Isaac feel a bit poorly himself and have knocked his routine a bit. Hope you all feel back to normal soon :hug: :hug: :hug: :hug:
 
is there anybody who could take the baby for an afternoon so you can catch up on some sleep?? everything looks so much worse when you're tired- things will settle again just remember to be kind to yourself :hug:

LO will settle down soon enough.
what i think it may be is that he is sensing a lot of your mood and reacting to it.
You need to take a break if you can. By that i don't mean you necessarily have to be parted from your baby.
I mean by just going to bed with baby for a whole day and being lazy. Leave the house work, leave the shopping.
Let someone help you. Is ther e anyone who would run the hoover round for you or do you a bit of shopping or cook you a meal? If there is let them do it. even just for a day or two.
Make sure you'e eating well. And drinking well.

money problems are vile. We have all had them or will all have them at some point.
But you know what fook it. Don't let money get the better of you. Don't argue over it with your hubby. Make sure you pay your rent or mortgage so that you have a roof over your head and the rest will sort itself out.
try not to let things build up - keep talking to your hubby and stick together. All will be ok.

when me and my husband had the two eldest children we were so broke one month we had to raid the car for change to buy a bag of chips. It was bad days but we got through. We made a pact never to argue over money. And we never do. Cos in the big scope of things money means shite, It really does. :hug:
 
aww i hope u all feel better soon hun, and really try not 2 get money probs get u down. xxx
:hug:
 
Thanks so much everyone :hug: :hug: :hug:
I think if I didn't vent this here I'd probably explode as everyone in my life seems so busy right now I only have OH to talk to and I don't like worrying or stressing him. Money does mean shite budge I so agree, I know we'll be fine but just in the thick of it got to me, and I think I felt worse for letting it. There's only really the 3 of us, we have friends but they have busy family lifes and I wouldn't want to trouble them, even though I know they wouldn't mind, but also personally not ready to leave Isaac with anyone yet, unfortunately :roll:
Just big thankyous for talking sense and all those hugs, I am feeling better about things today and trying to get quality naps through the day too which helps, and I got my period so that might've been adding extra stress to my mood.
THANKYOU for taking the time to listen and reply, means a lot :hug: :hug: :hug: very best wishes ladies :hug: :hug: :hug:
