Bedtime disaster

ballygirl · March 2014

Ugh I hate bedtime. I dread putting the girls to sleep. It is always such a freaking ordeal. I dread it all day long. It's like this nagging anxiety that gets worse and worse as the afternoon progresses. I count down the hours until I'll have to start. As 7pm approaches I get tense and find myself clenching my teeth even before we've started the whole process.

Tonight after putting Haley back to sleep for the third time in an hour, I was holding the paci in my mouth by the handle bc she kept spitting it out and thinking to myself "I hate this I hate this I hate this" and I must've bit down on the paci bc suddenly I felt my front tooth sort of crumble. Now I have a big chip out of my tooth and what looks like a crack running up it.

Oh my goodness!! That's awful. I'm so sorry you're having a tough time with bed time. I hope your tooth is ok. As I've said before, I don't know how you guys with twins do it. I admire your mama skills. Hang in there!

I constantly have nightmares about my teeth crumbling and falling out... Like once a week. They seem so real! I hope your tooth is ok!!!

And I give u so many props for dealing with everything x2!

Hang in there mama! One day at a time I keep telling myself.

Woah on the tooth so sorry! And hopefully you lo's start sleeping soon!

Oh gosh! That is horrible! Keep us updated on the tooth, and hopefully the girls will figure out their bedtime soon.

Is there anyone that could come over and help you with the last hour or two of the day, so that you could feel a little calmer and not dread it so much? I hate it that you have to deal with such a sense of dread every day...

Thanks guys. They are actually getting better at night. Usually it's not as bad as I fear it will be, but I can't seem to shake this anxiety about it all. I think the 4 mw scarred me for life - haha. Hopefully the tooth thing won't be too bad or expensive to fix!

Omg that sucks sooo bad! A grill might be awesome, though.

Oh no. Hope you get some rest soon.

My last hour is tough, I don't know how you do it x2. Keep up the good work momma!

Ugh sorry about your tooth. I have the same anxiety except it's with my older son and Skye. I do the exact same thing. I hate it. Nights when my husband is home are such a relief. I used to just be able to put baby in swing while I did him but that's not cutting it anymore.
