He's been the most laid back of my kids (I have three) but last night he sent my husband and I for a loop! He was up every HOUR!:grumble: And he's been whiny AAAAAALLLLLLLLL morning so far....YUCK!!! I think he may be getting some more teeth, but he wasn't like this with his first few. I'll be glad when he's feeling better and not so cranky so that I can like him again.:explode:

Okay-done ranting-and of course I still like him-he's just driving me batty this morning-and I'm tired! Thanks for listening...:flowerforyou:

    Oh, I have days like that too! Can you get them all in the playroom / family room, put on a movie, and just take a minute for yourself? Sounds like you need a minute to yourself to take a breath!

    My little guy was like that last night too, well, he wasn't up in the night but screamed for a good hour straight before bedtime last night. You'll feel much better after you get some much needed rest!:flowerforyou:

    My 3 yo was miserable last week. Took her to the doctor and she had an ear infection. No other symptoms. I felt so bad for being annoyed with her.

    Stay strong! :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:

    One time my daughter did that and I got sooo cranky :sad: and it got worse. Then, something in me told me to change my attitude. So, I started being very calm and kind again:happy: and soon enough her attitude changed as well. ... .but then again she was about 2.

    For mothers with new babies---try NURSING. I know its not the most popular thing in this generation but I nursed both of my children and the results were and are amazing. They were rarely sick and/or colicky.

    Although it's been years, I always said "Terrible Two's and Traumatic Three's" so I agree with you! My Mom always said "relax, some day you'll miss these days" NOT LOL!! It will pass :tongue: Just try to enjoy them since the time goes so very fast :smile: ! When you look at how fast the years go, then you wonder how each day seemed like an eternity :flowerforyou:

    I nursed all three, but I stopped nursing this one at about five months when I went back to work...thanks though!
