Hey. Today has been AWFUL. She's only thrown one other tantrum like this in her life (same scenario...didn't want to take a nap) but LORD is it hard. She is SO out of control, and she is NEVER like that. I just feel so helpless. She threw a (mild) fit about getting dressed, another one about getting in the car before school, another one over not wanting pizza for lunch, and then, the ridiculousness just now. I'm not even mad/frustrated by it...I'm completely mystified! What in the world is the problem?!
Hope you and H are doing better than we are ![]()
Re: ***DevonPow***
Is it the molars still? That would be my guess. Ugh - if sweet and calm Kate gets like this over 2 year molars we are SCREWED. Maybe she is getting sick? But I feel like she gets quiet when she is getting sick...
But yeah, I know what those days are like. It is easier when you understand what the heck is going on, but when they spazz out for no apparent reason...it sucks.
If you need to get out of the house this afternoon let me know - we have no plans!
She's been really weird for a couple of days now...not going down for nap until closer to 2 pm, then not going down for the night until 8:30 or so. Same wake up time. She had school today and they said she did great, so who knows!? She is a little sick (cough, runny nose) but nothing terrible.
We're supposed to go to our gym class this afternoon. We need to leave at 3:30 which is one reason I tried to put her down at 1:00.
What am I going to do with two kids!? Yikes.
She is just getting all of this out of the way so you don't need to deal with it when you have the baby, right?
Maybe the teeth are keeping her up and she is getting over-tired.... or maybe she is ticked off at how much freaking snow we keep getting and is rebelling. I bet she is over it soon.
Good luck at gym class...we were at ours this morning and Henry was craaaaaaazy. He kept carrying around the little traffic cones and then yelling "HELLOO!!!!!!!!!!" through them right into kid's faces. Oh my.
Oh God.
Have you tried Motrin on the off chance it is teeth? I like to medicate when H gets insane.
