Tonight my 2 year old kid went to bed ok but my 5 week old just screamed bloody murder for the last 2 hours. It was god awful. Nothing I did consoled him and his dad is at work until 3am. He just now fell asleep on me with a pacifier. I'm terrified to move and too wound up to fall asleep anyway. Most of the time he was crying I was just praying my big kid wouldn't wake up because what would I do with 2 of them flipping out. He and I spent a chunk of the last 2 hours in the garage. Oh my I hope this isn't a nightly thing. Tonight was the first time. Knock.on.wood.
Oh good, I've been wanting to complain about this and didn't want to make another post. SIL and bro dont have nephew on a schedule, he's 16 months and DS is 13 months. SILs mom lives there so she watches nephew and he can do what he wants whenever. So they have zero concept of a schedule. When they are over, they dont leave. Its bedtime! GTFO! I like having them over but when I say he goes to bed at 7:30, you need to get out at 7 so he can wind down. It took me 45 minutes to get him to sleep tonight and DH is OOT so after that I had to do all the dishes etc by myself. Get out of my house!
