DYK Elizabeth I'm tired just reading about your hours?
DYK maybe you could take a mental health break mid day, since you stay so late?

DYK Loran fell asleep at 7:30...woke up at 8:30 and it was an all out BATTLE to get her back to sleep
DYK she would fall asleep on me, but the minute I stood up to take her to bed she would start to cry
DYK tried to lay her in her crib and she was having none of it- BAWLING
DYK I finally gave her a second bottle, which she inhaled, and laid her in her crib where she complained for about 5 minutes and then was out for the rest of he night...sheesh!
DYK I hate when she is so upset, even when I know it is just because she doesn't want to lay down.

DYK Chad does wake himself up snoring
DYK if he doesn't I have to shove him so he rolls over on to his side, which helps

DYK she just wanted to snuggle
DYK I wish I could sleep well with her!

dyk I just finished putting the details into Abi's mood chart

dyk it all fits -- it's amazing how it all fits

dyk and it totally explains how her "autism" comes and goes -- her autism (though I don't think she actually IS autistic) characteristics are 100% linked to her depressive episodes
