Bad luck about the job. Hope you get sorted soon. Cant say I know how it feels as I dont, but with the baby situation, I truely know what you mean. Now mine are that bit older they sleep. I look back at the sleepless nights and oh how I laugh

Seriously, good luck with the job

Been there, done that (twice). It DOES get better, honest.

thats on a par with my week! Wife in hospital giving birth (6 nights in all), and a trip to a&e with the 2 year old for asthma/wheezing.

On the plus side, second baby seems loads easier than first, im not even tired! Got 5 hours kip last night, on his first night home

ps how rude of me, forgot to say i hope your kid is doing ok.
