Thank goodness I am not the only one feeling that way. I have not been on here since April as I had forgotten my password and never got around to resetting it until last night.
As you can see it is 0415 in the morning and my little devils are both awake
Ryan and Samuel are now almost 8 months (corrected age 6 months) They have both decided that they no longer want to sleep
Tuesday both boys were awake from 7am until 7pm with a total period of 40 minutes sleep, then during the night they woke 3 times. Ryan is full on rolling around his cot and ends up with arms and legs hanging out the side and he gets stuck. I go in and fix him up and settle him again, 5 minutes later he is kicking the side of the cot and giggling. Unfortunately it has got to the stage that I dont find it amusing anymore and school holidays are not helping either as the 5 and 10 year olds just want to make lots of noise and go places.
To top it off I had my gall bladder out last week with some complications, so I am not even supposed to be lifting the babies yet.
Have you been given any indication of waiting periods for the sleep centres Helen ? A girlfriend called QEC in Melbourne yesterday and was told she had a 6 week wait just for the phone consultation and then up to 6 months wait for the residential program ?
Just thought I would reply and let you know that you are definately not alone
