Thank you for showing the realities of parenting two kids. I understand influencers not wanting to show there kids having melt downs etc but when everything is cut out of vlogs it makes parenting look easy and perfect when in reality some days are going to be hard. You don’t need to answer but I wondered if there was an update with the tongue tie and if you had decided what you were going to do with it

Lovely realistic vlog of a solo mum smashing life with a new born and toddler. You are doing amazing. Keeping it real. All these comments about not letting him watch tv! I feel you hun you need a bit of down time / break and so does george after nursery! Maybe not loads all night. Good suggestions about audio books, going for a walk, reducing nap times. Perhaps tea at 5, walk at 6 (walk dog!) bath George at 6:30, books bed by 7pm. In bed by 7:30. I followed nanny Louenna routines on Instagram for my second so I could fit a routine around my 2.5 yr old. And give my attention to her and my new born son. And I had help! Giving positive feedback on hear would benefit Shan. She is smashing realistic parenting 4/5 days a week on her own! 😊

As for the bedtime struggle…I think he senses that you can’t be 100% with him even though you do your best! Maybe he needs some more time to adjust to the new situation, it’s definitely difficult for everyone! Sending you a hug from a very tired mama too! 💜

I feel your pain! A few tips from me who has just gone through this with a 2.5 yo and 6mo now. I think when your husband is back and you have the backup you need to go cold turkey on TV as it massively over stimulates them - at least 2 hours before bed time. Gro clock to show when they can and can't get out of bed. Maybe drop any nap he still has, tricky at this age as they are half way between needing it and not. So hard sending love x

OMG you’re a superwoman! How you’re coping with 2 kids all by yourself and on zero sleep is honestly beyond me! And then having the strength to ‘choose to laugh’ - you’re amazing! I know when my toddler isn’t getting quality/enough sleep, it’s so much harder to get him to do ANYTHING the next day, bedtime is a nightmare and he’s even more overtired…it’s a complete vicious cycle! Think your idea of trying to get bedtime back on track by staggering the time is a really sensible idea - and can you let him cry it out a bit too or is that difficult because of disturbing neighbours? Not long til your partner’s back with you I think though so just keep counting down the days!

Hi Shan, my son is the same age as George and sometime recently his energy levels have shot up and he doesn’t feel sleepy almost till 9 on some days, even when he is in the nursery and hasn’t had a nap. So I think this is part of a growth spurt and we just make sure we follow bed time routine when he wants to sleep.

My eldest is a tiny bit younger than George and he doesn’t nap at all, hasn’t for well over 6 months. We noticed that the days he had naps, bedtimes were horrendous. Now he doesn’t nap (maybe sometimes a very quick snooze in the car!) bedtimes are a breeze. Maybe worth a try! I also swearrrrr by bedtime baby bath 😂 I like it myself!

My girl did similar to what George is doing when I had my second. I tried everything, the best thing that worked for me was to go upstairs from 6/7pm bath, stories, then chill in mums bed until she fell asleep. Now they are 20 months and 4 years old and I can sit in their room until they fall asleep. My first told me she felt lonely going to bed on her own, that’s why I choose this route. Good luck in what ever you choose! :)

I completely understand where you are at. I had a new born and a 3 year old and did solo parenting, the evenings were my worst and there were many dark days navigating through it. I found they were very rough moment but they passed quickly even though they felt like they were going to last forever. I found ways to make things work for the 3 of us and even today, I still nurse my 1 year old who doesn't always sit still while I'm trying to read to my 4 year old. Strength to you hun. Thinking of you. X

Hi Shan, I’m not trying to tell you what to do or anything, but just to say that I have a boy who is a lot younger than George (he’s just turned 1), and we were really struggling with bedtime because he would just scream every time we put him to bed at night. After doing to some research we decided to cut out tv completely for him. It was difficult but worth it. He’s a much happier boy and bedtime is a breeze and I no longer dread it. A friend of mine did the same with her daughter as she was having tantrums a lot and her behaviour is completely different now. I’d definitely recommend looking into it, apparently it can be over stimulating and create problems x
@serenagrace8493
@serenagrace8493 Жыл бұрын
Yes I second this. Although I haven’t cut out screentime, I have reduced it considerably and try less stimulating shows like Julia Donaldson animations. You could try getting him a Tonie box or yoto for background noise or something to listen to than watch 😊

As a veteran mum of 3 sons I’d say tv in the evenings has to be cut out completely and screen time cut off or reduced so they aren’t over stimulated or even walks to burn off energy and do relaxing unwinding calmer play bath time with sleepy products lavender etc having more scents around that are calming and milky drinks with book’s honestly we stupidly put a tv in my big sons room when he was 8 it was quickly removed and he’s now 25 and still has no tv 😂and we didn’t allow a tv in our youngest two sons rooms til our youngest was 16 years old screen stimulation is horrific and we still do family time in front of the telly instead and my lot think this is normal we didn’t do sound machine’s because we consulted a sleep clinic who didn’t recommend them it’s crazy the tiniest changes can bring peace to a household and we picked our battles somethings really are not that important also give yourself some grace George is actually a normal toddler and is probably going through a change in life a growth spurt and some stranger ie the baby has taken his spot mums arms and he’s probably thinking if the babies awake I’m awake and has fomo 😂I’d let George help do the babies bed time routine then do his and let him think he’s helping out and just follow his sleepy cues and let him go to bed much later with no screen time and walks if possible to let off energy forcing bed time isn’t going to work for him also summer is tricky it’s not dark everyone is awake and he has to go to bed 🫣 toddler perspective I genuinely used to trick mine we would walk around shutting the house down lock doors windows close all the curtains clean up put on lamps load washing machine and it would be a family event turn down beds including ours bath times hot coco it got to a point when my kids would rather go to bed than help shut down our house 😂 there’s no right or wrong way no manual for parenting you will find your feet soon

Screen time is not recommended for children 2 and under, I let my 22 month old watch only about 3 hrs they recommend 1 hr of high quality shows (relaxed soft and slow shows that are not overstimulation and are educational) a few good ones are - mr Roger’s neighborhood, Daniel tigers neighborhood, puffin rock and tumble leaf , maybe Dora and Pocoyo, not recommended are high pitched fast overstimulating, addictive shows like Cocomelon, blippi, etc I also use the yoto mostly at night to read stories etc also use lavender scented epsom salts for bath time to help them relax

I follow jess from nurtured mum, the bedtime battles course is great. I can imagine moving the whole bedtime until really late will leave an over tired kid melting down and not getting in jammies or brushing teeth, we try and do it gradually to help not rush my middle kid(4.5) Also you can do a what to expect routine list for the day, and talk about bedtime when they're not in a tired emotional state. But I've had a 2 year old and a new born and I've had a 3 year old and a newborn but never as a solo parent so I can't imagine how hard bedtime must be. And sending strength until he is back home! ❤

My little boy Will literally be chased around the house and we are very hyper pre bed and he’s fast out. I know this won’t be forever and isn’t advised, but it works. However we have a battle of 4am wake ups and cannot seem to shift it. I think it’s his body clock with BF still. Honestly, hats off to you for being so real. This type of vlog was so good to watch.

Because it works for some people. My daughter goes to bed at 6.30 because she's tired. Then she wakes at 6.30/7.

I woukd put the baby down for 5 minutes (crying or not) and read your child a story so that he can actually see the pictures. No wonder hes playiny up when you're standing up reading a story that he cant see whilst holding a baby.

You’re suggesting to leave a newborn baby crying for the sake of showing him the book? Genuinely what is she meant to do in that situation, both need her but ultimately the crying baby has to be the priority there. I’m not surprised people worry about showing these things, if she had left her to cry while she read there would be so many comments saying poor baby. 🤦🏼‍♀️

@@heidiii25 yes I am. It doesn't hurt a baby to cry. And maybe if she didn't show every detail of her life on the internet to a bunch of strangers then she may not get judged so much. If I can manage on my own with 6 children then I'm pretty sure she can with 2!
