In the winter the 3 of us children would sit one in front of the other in front of the 2 bar electric fireplace in the living. No central heating then. Later on used to have one of these in the hallway. Gas bottle in the back Yup Carbon Monoxide machine that also pumped out heat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My grandson rages that I tell him he must be in his early 20s now. My grandson also likes a YouTuber called Unspeakable. He looks like he should be on a register. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I mentioned Blippi (although I spelled it wrong). She loves him. Makes Mister Tumble suddenly seem watchable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paddywhack Posted December 19, 2022 Share Posted December 19, 2022 My 3 year old has never really done ‘imaginative play’ before, but he started acting out little scenes with his toys in the bath last night, making up stories and putting little voices on. It was lovely to just sit and watch. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hogso Posted December 20, 2022 Share Posted December 20, 2022 Well, at least Blippi is better than the dudes prior act - Steezy Grossman. Don't google it. He shat all over his mate.

Villa87 Posted December 21, 2022 Share Posted December 21, 2022 One woke up at 6 and the other 7 this morning. Will undoubtedly be a one off, but a minor miracle seeing as we have been getting up 4-5 for over a year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted December 21, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted December 21, 2022 Mine did his standard trick. Gave us two nights in a row sleeping through until 5:30, which is as good as it ever gets. Then just as we think he's cracked it, he gives us a night of waking up every half an hour between 10:30 and 2:30am Then he was up at 5 for the day Wonderful. Of all the hardships that come with having a kid, I've got to say the lack of sleep is the only one that truly bothers me. It's driving me crazy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And he generally falls asleep quickly. Leaving him just doesn't work. I've done an hour before. He just gets worse and worse 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He just gets worse and worse The sleep training clearly isn’t working… You gotta dig in, write off 2 nights for long term gains. Trust me, it works but you’ve got to be strong. If you’re caving in after an hour he knows that it’s worth him keep going as you’ll eventually be along. It’s the worst thing to do. If you’ve left him (cos you know he’s, safe, fed, warm etc) he will occasionally do a little cry but then give up quickly as he knows nobody is coming (cos it’s sleep time). Whichever book you have that tells you to run into him every time he cries in the night should be burned.
