12 weeks - 6pm
It's pissing down rain. I'm tired. Haven't slept well because Charlie doesn't sleep very well anymore. It takes ages for him to give up the fight to stay awake. And wakes up often. The only place where he might fall asleep is in my bed, preferably with nipple in his mouth.Today he is screaming hour after hour, sleeping ten minutes in between, waking up for a feed, screaming again. Five minutes after changing him I hear him fill his nappie, I change him again, there is so much poo his whole back is covered with it! I bath him. He is happy for 15 minutes. Lola sleeps a lot today. Thanks Lo!
It's 6 pm, the cat screams for food too. The dogs on the deck staring at me to say 'Let us in!'. The horses standing in front of the gate, everybody wants food... There is a mountain of washing on the couch, a mega pile of shirts that need ironing, the dishwasher needs emptying. I'm hungry but I'm sick of eating boring plain stuff. I typ this with Charlie screaming on my lap, arching his back all the time. Nothing works to calm him down. But I just can't put him down.
Now Lola is waking up.
Screaming too.
Horrible time of the day.
Horrible 12 weeks.
