Where I want to tear my hair out!
Phoebe has been screaming ALL day. Hysterically.
We were out having coffee with a friend, she was good as gold. Then half hour after that it started. She'd managed to drop both dummies I had with me on the floor / mothercare's changing mat, even though we have a soother saver! So then the screaming started.
Eventually took her into Costa to try and feed her even though it hadn't even been 3 hours, ordered drink and paid with finger in her gob. Asked for a mug of just boiling water so I could steralise a dummy - but no they are not allowed. Whats the bloody difference between that and my coffee?!?!?! She was screaming so much that it took 15 mins to make her bottle in between pacifying her every ten seconds. Everyone was staring at me.
So she was fed, fell asleep at the end. Went to put her in the buggy, the screaming started again. Mum came and met me at this point and decided to try and settle her outside while I had my drink - ten mins later she came back in, and she was still screaming.
All I can say is thank the Lord for Milton wipes! But by this point dummy didn't settle her either.
She just refuses to sleep some days, it is so so exhausting and there doesn't seem to be anything I can do about it. I am wondering if teething is making it worse, she wants her dummy but as soon as I give it to her she either chews it or pulls it out so she can chew her fingers.
Sorry about the long message, just wanted a bit of a rant to be honest to people who understand!!!!!
