Well i am not quite sure where the nice Lacey has gone but its like overnight she has turned into the demon child from hell aaarrrrggggghhhhhh
If you say no!, dont give her the right drink!, dont give her the right attention she screams and stamps her feet, if honest it was funny to begin with but it is just embrassing now
Charlotte took her to one of those wiggle and giggle sessions at our local libary and Charlotte said she pushed a boy who took a book of her, screamed at a baby who was crying and chucked her cup on the floor cause she had finsihed her drink then she would NOT sit and sing and wanted to get up and walk around.
Charlotte said it was really embrassing
and she felt like she had failed..... when she ran i told her not to worry but bu the time i got home i think charlotte had, had 2 nose bleeds and was ready to burst so i shoved laceys coat on and let her walk about in the drive while charlotte had a brew in peace.
After bath time and story time i was shattered and had only been home 2 hours, Lacey decided she did not want me to put her to bed and was chucking herself about and screaming which then made charlotte come in the room and see if she was all right which made it worse.
Me and charlotte then had an arguement becuase i was trying to sort her and am capable of getting her ready for bed even if she was chucking a wobbler and charlotte kept on putting her arms out, so lacey would go to her then not come and get ready to the point i shouted and told charlotte to go out of the room.
I dont think bed time could of come any quicker by the time i had calmed Lacey down i was shattered
On a wednesday i go to the gym and by the time i got home, Charlotte was asleep on top of the bed bless her, Lacey was snoring away and it was quite.
After all that i think was i am trying to get accross is that it is really hard being the other mum sometimes, because the baby does not want us all the time becuase we are not there (primary care giver thing) as much as the other mummy and finding that balance can be really hard and stressful on relationships.
I think we need to sit down and discuss some rules about not taking over and at least giving me a chance to do stuff even if Laceydoes not want it!!!1
