Success after IF

Vent vent vent

DS is no longer napping, like at all.  He didn't nap for a week straight.  I read up on solutions, implemented them, thought we had success, but no.  We're officially back to no nap at all.

I'm about to start stims for #2 (a week late, thanks to DH's travel being disrupted) and feel like I can't possibly handle more than what I have already.  Right now, I feel like I can't handle that, but I know it's the stress of IVF, DH's travel, and today's failed nap getting to me.

And my MIL is coming into town for TWO WEEKS.  DS never sleeps well when she's around because she's SO LOUD.  And makes me a little bit irrationally crazy.  I truly feel like I'm going to lose my mind. 

I want to run away!  (Not really, but I need a break and there is none in sight.)  I can't even go to the gtg thanks to a number of things going wrong.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!  Thanks for letting me vent.  I may need to do that several more times in the coming weeks.

  • I'm sorry. I can only imagine how frustrating it would be to rely on that nap time and then it disappears. I hope things get better and tell that MIL to quiet down! :)

  • I feel your pain. H napped for a TOTAL of 45 mins today. I'm also at my wits end and don't know what to do anymore. It's clear he's exhausted. Like you, the length of his naps can make or break my mood for the day. I'm sorry you're feeling overwhelmed. I hope your MIL shows up and surprises you by being helpful!!
  • Fellow longhorn - you will be okay! I promise. Okay, well, at least that is what I am telling myself. :) I feel the same exact way. I am like, there is no way that I can handle more than this. But, we will! It will be okay!

    So sorry about MIL. I understand. I hate things that interrupt naps, because they are so important!!!

  • I am sending some hugs your way...

    Is there anyway that you could get away while your MIL is in town for a girls night out or even a day of pampering?  You could plan a few afternoons out or something like that so you could get a break from your MIL and everything else and spin it like it is time she can spend with your DS...

    My MIL is so loud too.  I hate it.  My DH has talked with her many times b/c she will wake DS up from naps.  She just talks crazy loud, slams things around etc and just doesn't get it.  Ugg. 

    Nothing to see here....
