Ooooh, could be possible then ladies?
I drive,so can go anywhere really.
Perhaps we should all visit MrsHedgehog in Italy for some "proper" coffee or vino LOL!!
I'm so tired of being tired. And i'm tired of moaning about being tired. I feel like it takes up the whole of my brain.
everyone
^^THIS!!!!
^^ME TOO! And as it turns out my OH is also tired of me being tired and my moaning about being so tiredlol. But all is well again here, we made up.
Do you ladies too feel as though the weeks are just passing in a haze and all you seem to think about is the dread (and hope) of the next night? I cannot believe that my boys are nearly 6 months old and that for the entire time of their lives I have pretty much thought of nothing but sleep and the lack thereof. (I exaggerate but I am sure you know what I mean).
I am obsessing a lil with their naps too but if I ever needed proof that good naps do not breed good night time sleep then yesterday was my proof (again). They napped extremely well during the day and had 2 hours after lunch even! In the evening I managed to time their last nap so that they were up just over an hour between it and their bed time bottle. And Dom slept atrociously badly last night. Ok so this might be cause of the sleeping bags but then again he slept really well the night before. So what I am saying is that while I won't disregard their nap times I no longer keep so rigorously to them. Today I went shopping with them after their 3pm bottle and though they napped a lil in the supermarket, it certainly was not the hour long nap they should be doing. Hasn't made a difference so far. I had to replug Dom with his dummy just now. So as usual. Maybe you should stop being so careful and just go out when you feel like it with obviously giving him a chance to sleep on the way or there. But becoming your babies' prisoner like that would depress anyone!

THIS is one of the reasons I get depressed. As I cannot control how good or bad the night sleep is, I spend my days making sure he has decent naps at least. I end up doing nothing else, or avoiding doing things and/or going to places because I worry he will not sleep and will be really cranky afterwards. When he has a short nap, I am already counting the hours until the next one! Sometimes I get so stressed that it feels like I am not enjoying my time with him as much as I should (again, an exaggeration, but you get the idea). I get depressed when I feel that way, because I know than in about a month I'll be at work and will miss him sooooo much!!

Maybe you could have a meet up at Stansted airport and hop on a Ryanair flight to Perugia. I'll have some strong coffee and a few bottles of wine waiting!
