Just a little whine

We had the first really bad night last night is absolute ages, both husband and I are complete wrecks today. On a forecasted 38 deg C day.

Isabel was in and out of our room literally the whole night, the longest stretch we slept was from about 2h45 until 3h20.  We tried everything, taking her top off, put the fan on, checked that the mosquito thingy works, gave her water, talked to her.  She has a mozzy bite that’s looking a bit dodge, but I think she was just really, really hot, poor sausage.

And then Daniel came into our room at about 5am saying he’d wet his bed.  He must have realised he needed to make a wee but didn’t make it to the loo in time as the top of his duvet was wet. So, off went the duvet and I just chucked a sheet over him and off to dreamland he went again.

And inbetween I dreamt that a friend’s husband died and that our house got re-possessed.  WTF?

Must dash, off to my Mom’s house to spend the day in their pool..

  1. This heat is killing! We also had sleep issues last night. I ended up taking both boys outside – K in just his nappy and D in sleep shorts – to lie on their little lilos and look up at the stars at 10 pm – it was still 24 degrees! They eventually slept virtually naked with the fan on the whole night.

  2. Happy New Year! Sorry I’m a bit slow in popping in to catch up.
    We had the night from hell last night, and it’s pretty cool here (thundering & raining as I type). Wettest Dec/Jan ever! Connor was impossible last night. No signs or symptoms, just screaming non stop!

    Hope everyone’s feeling better today!!

  3. Agh, I had one of those last night too. It kills you, and you wonder how the hell you coped with a newborn; sleepless night after sleepless night!

  4. Happy New Year!
    We are also struggling in the heat. It’s supposed to be cooler this weekend. Am crossing all my bits for cool weather.
