Thanks guys. I'm even going to head to bed early for tonight, I can barly keep my eye's open. On the up side all four of Kayla's 1 year molars are in YAY!! so she had all on the top but her canines, and needs 4 more on the bottom.

GRRRRRR!!!! I am sooo mad at Nathans mom (I'll get over it when I actually get some sleep) Its now 2:15 AM and I am still trying to get him back to sleep. All that hard work last week, and she went and gave him all those bottles again  >:( daytime and nighttime. Said it was easier for her >:( I'm back to square one. Yeah cause I get to do the hard work. Yesterday was the worst day yet, felt like he was up more then he slept. Today I cut all the daytime bottles again and I am working on the night bottles.
To make matters worse he's woken Kayla up and she's been fussing on and off all night too.
I haven't felt this tired since Kayla was a newborn.
Now I can hear them both talking in different rooms and I can't sleep  :-\   
This is going to be a looooooong night, and an even longer week.
If I have to start over each week I just might snap.  >:(

That is so unfair for you. Huge hugs... feeling particularly bitchy on your belhalf,  maybe ring her every hour when she is trying to sleep.
If she wasn't such a good friend for you, I think I'd be telling her she can't pay you enough to do it if she is going to be so selfish & undo all the work you do to try & get him sleeping through the night.

Y'know what?  I'm so ed off for you right now, I'd be telling her to find other arrangements.  I can't believe she just undid all of your hard work like that and SHE has the audacity to say that it was too hard to follow your advice?

Grrr.....maybe I'm just extra punchy b/c I've slept no more than 4 hrs straight in the last 3 nights but I'm so ticked off for you!

Oh Kimberly, I'm SO mad for you too if it helps.  I'm sorry that you have to have a terrible day and be so tired.  :(

That is so horrible. Yes, it may be easier for her, but that is so totally unfair on her baby. That is going to be so hard on him. I know that children will probably test their parents more, but if she is not even going to do it, I would say forget it. Not to mention how unfair this is on you and your family. Hugs xx Does she work the night shift? I don't get why you have him days and nights.
