LAST NIGHT'S EVENTS IN A PHOTO

. . . all started out fine . . . quickly off to sleep . . . occasional cries through the evening (lasting less than 5 seconds at a time but still showing unsettled sleep) . . . not too bad . . . until I turned off the light . . . within 5 minutes she was screaming . . . came into bed with me . . . continued to cry . . . eventually calmed . . . but continued to toss and turn . . . after an hour or more she went back into her cot . . . screamed within minutes . . . repeated lots of points . . . after 4 hours she went back into her cot . . . ultimately she slept in her cot and I had less than 4 hours in total.

Ugh. I had to get up to let in the decorator and electrician. She slept in. Neither of us felt good. Neither of us are very well at the moment - my patience was slim today, Alice's was AWOL. Luckily we didn't have too many incidents like the photo, but it's unusual to have any.

Last night's turmoil was the worst night that I've ever had with her, can't complain but that doesn't stop the effects of the lack of sleep!

I'm hoping for a better night tonight, but unfortunately she's already been crying out in her sleep, like last night, oh well.
