Default Newbie and Need HELP !!!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hi Ladies !!!
My name is Kristy (28) and I am the mother of 2 beautiful baby girls, ages 2 and 3. I was on the boards when I was prego with them but after I just couldn't find the time to keep up. Now that I have more time I wanted to reconnect and find some friends.

I was also posting to ask for some help !!! I was wondering if anyone has some advice or has gone through the same thing. My 2 years was the sweetest and best kid, until about 3-4 months ago. Not that she isn't a sweetie but she has been getting mean and does this crying thing now. She crys for no reason sometime or just when anything bothers her. She has only 1 volume when she does this, and it is LOUD !! The worst part is that she is crying at night. She used to sleep through the night great but no more. She crys all the time, sometimes she is still sleeping I think. If anyone can help , I am begging you !! I feel bad for hubby that has to get up and go to work too. I need to help her sleep better. And I NEED SLEEP TOO !!!

PS I am so looking forward to talking to eveyone !! Happy posting

I have taken her to the Dr. and had her checked out but she is healthy. I thought the same about the teeth but couldn't see any coming up. My 3 yr old I think had night terrors for a while at the same age so I guess that could be it. We are just taking it one night at a time. Had a good one last night. I have just been trying to get her really tired during the day by taking them on walks, the playground...whatever it takes hoping she will be so tired she will sleep through the night. I want to had one more but I think about these types of sleepless nights...you think it ends when they aren't newborns, boy are we wrong !! LOL

Hi! I am Nicole, 28. My little one is just 4mo. today.

I have never been in your situation before, but I just wanted to say that I hope you and DH get some much needed sleep and that you are able to comfort your little one.

Welcome to the board Kristy, I'm glad you've joined us over here. I'm Arrianah, 22, and mom to three little ones. Our oldest two, boy/girl twins, will be turning 3 in just a couple of weeks and we have an 8 month old little guy as well. We're expecting baby #4 who is due September 3rd, but he's really threatening to come whenever he wants which could be tomorrow or could be ... never! OMG could you imagine being pregnant for an eternity?

I'm sorry your daughter is going through this, it sounds miserable on all accounts. If her big sister went through the night terrors, I'd honestly place my bets that the poor thing is going through the same thing. I've never had to experience that but wanted to send my
