Every single night between 12/1am my 2 year old son has woke up screaming due to having a cold and he’s extremely hard to settle with continuously crying, I have been sleeping on the sofa with my 2 year old girl in the Moses basket
Tonight is just my last straw, now my daughter has a blocked nose and is struggling to settle 😩😩
My son is currently awake next to me on the sofa on and off crying ( before anyone judges he is absolutely fine I’m not just ignoring him - I’m writing this in the breather of him not crying )
I’m so done in 🥲 the nights feel 10x longer when having to juggle a newborn and a toddler
Normally he sleeps 8pm until 8am without any issue 😅

I have a 3 year week old son and my daughter is 2 in March. She’s been waking up crying/screaming and then refuses to go back to sleep, she can be awake for 1.5-2.5 hours at a time. It’s absolutely exhausting isn’t it?!
it’s exhausting, I really hope tonight is better but I’m not feeling positive! Hopefully it doesn’t last much longer x
