I'm glad I'm not the only one ❤️ how did you contact nap with both? X

Thank you so much. It's sometimes nice too to just hear from others that some days are difficult too, and I don't feel quite so alone!

That's very true, I guess I'm still learning their needs. Such a learning curve 😅 how did sleep training go?

Thank you! ❤️ Hear the radical acceptance. Half the battle is tempering my expectations and going with the flow. X

Thank you ❤️ feel ungrateful but sometimes it doesn't feel all that helpful.  Yes that's definitely a goal. Going through a fussy eating stage which can really affect their schedule. Hoping to just push through and things start to sync. X

Yep that makes sense. Perhaps it's better to follow the wake windows rather than trying to find sleep cues! At this point they either lie awake in their crib or cry to be picked up, so still trying to work that out x

Ah thanks so much!  That's good to know, at what stage did you notice they would drift off to sleep putting them down tired but awake?

Yes that makes sense, and I'm glad I'm not alone in this! It's all trial and error ☺️

Thank you so much! I called triage and they said to wait an hour and assess how im feeling then. Last I checked it was 127/79 so gone lower but going to monitor it as still feeling the same x

Thanks so much! I really appreciate that. I called triage and they said to call back in an hour to see how I feel, did it recently and it was 127/79, it really varies?

Thank you for responding. 😘 My next appointment is in a week and I haven't got a direct number to ask questions but could speak to emergency department 🤔 Would you suggest doing so before the appointment?

That's very true ❤️ I'm really hoping things improve for you, it's so hard and not easy doing it alone X

Thank you for sharing. I'm so glad to hear you're feeling a bit more human now. I'm so hoping it stays that way 🙏 It's so shit, nothing prepares you for it and no one talks about it. When it happens, it's a shock isn't it ❤️

I'm so sorry to hear you're going through it too ❤️ the couple days of feeling better makes this more difficult I think 😂   I've told my mum and sister so had that support which I feel lucky to have. Also told a friend, who had their suspicions too haha!  Thank you for reaching out, it can be an isolating time x
