Ok so can i please get another 10 points pls...i need help badly with LG...she had as you know from reading previous post a bad/day...
well it goes on...she has been awake now on and off screaming from 12:50am....i went in to do the feed and had to re-wrap her as her wrap was up over her face...
Such a very bad idea....she then would not go back to sleep no matter what i or hubby did....i finally put her in the stroller and pushed her off to sleep for about 1.5 hours @ 2:30am then she woke at 4am for a feed and well she is still not really asleep....as her dummy keeps falling put and she will then start crying!!!!!
We didn't really want to use the dummy for this reason but it's the only thing that is helping to stop the screaming at the moment....
So what i need is some help for the next few days as I'm not sure how she is going to go and I'm being brutally honest when i say that if she continues screaming like this i will not cope....something is going to happen..bad
any help welcome even if it's only half an hour where you come hold LG whilst i breathe....
Am going to be calling GG (great Grandam) this morning....I've got an apt for LG to Natalie (cranio lady) next Tues then the specialist apt the Tues after....am going to call the health nurse this morning too...so I've got lots of bases covered but would still love any help you can give....
Phew....

Phew!
Helen, you DO have all the bases covered & you are doing brilliantly, all things considered... sleep is so precious, isn't it? I wish I could help in a physical sense...
It seems impossible to soothe a screaming baby when they can't be settled: been there, done that, & it makes you feel useless and TIRED.
But you will sort it out. And I'm sure that you will get someone to give you guys the break that you need.
Love, hugs & SLEEP to you all xooxoxxo
I wish I could come over and put you to bed!
Ring someone Helen, ring Lisa or Deb or Diana and ask them to come!
Lots of love to you, am sending LG calming energy and for you too

thanks guy's have spoken to Diana and Grandma is on her way over....have Dr's appt this morning for her..so will wait and see
will let you all know
when do you want me ?
well LG is sleeping at the moment, it's just when she is up and had her bottle...although she didn't do it at the dr's this morning!!!!
They NEVER do it at the doctors! Fact of life.
Helen - I'm so sorry I haven't replied sooner; of course I can help. I've been swamped this week with school holidays, a week long visit from Craig's son who we haven't seen for 14 years and on top of it all I have come down with a bit of a cold so have been as close to off line as I have ever been. BUT...once I get over this cold we'll set something up, yeah? My 3 year old would love to play with Bear as well so that will work out wonderfully.
Hugs and love to you and yours. Even though I know how lonely things can feel at 3am, I'm glad you know you are not really alone in all this and that even just asking for help can start to make a difference. Remember that each blue day you get through is one less blue day you will have to face moving forward.
Hope to see you tomorrow night.
Wendy
