Liese! I'm so excited for you!
A year and a half ago, I could have eviscerated him with my thoughts. Now I can barely hurt his feelings. Things used to be so much simpler.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
No kids here. And even I know baby's set their own schedules.
And I don't give advice - but I will ask questions ( does this work for child a ),occasionally this is unwelcomed - but that's because I was was just a place to talk to and I missed that signal.
and though it took me awhile to realizes it, sometimes even when there is something that looks like a solution for child A - it won't work because of other things in the family dynamic.
so - raising kids - complicated. I am awed by those that have chosen to do so.

How on earth do you say "no" to a baby waking up at five?

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

It's actually pretty easy, but it requires a bit of planning. Starting at least nine months' previous.
