I wish I could babysit for you so that you can catch up on some sleep. I get really really depressed when I have lack of sleep. It really effects everything. I have no answers on how to get her to sleep, or what the right answers are.. but I am praying that this is just a phase and sooner rather than later you will find some sleep...

Oh man.... that's rough. No nap=cranky parent. For ANY parent. Your completely normal. Is there anybody nearby that you can hand her over to for a couple of hours a day so she has something else to think about and you get some peace??? Mrs. Kitty's last blog post..A little place called Denial

You are doing a great job! Seriously. This shit is hard a lot of the time and you’ve got a lot going on!

My three year old naps at school. Easily and happily. At home you would think I asked him to sit in the electric chair with needles sticking him when I try and put him in for a nap. He turns into Satan’s playmate around 6:15 and that’s when I go nuts.

I definitely feel your pain. I know I should be the calm one and rational one but sometimes it just doesn’t happen.

You’re doing great!

Seriously, cut yourself some slack... every mom has gone through this, or will. What I wouldn't have given for some duct tape, cotton balls, and a stiff drink on some days sans naps. Could you take naps together, would she let you lie down with her? There were days when that was the only way I could get my young'en to be still, and I got a bonus snooze.

Cut yourself some slack, I try to.

I think every parent has these days, weeks, months, but not every parent worries about it. I think worrying about it shows that you care. At least that’s what they tell me

Trying harder does not mean that days like today won’t happen. It just means that when you look back at the big picture, you’ll feel good about it. And trying harder doesn’t mean it’s going to happen overnight. Trust me – it’s not happening here yet!

And, we totally do “afternoon quiet time” at our house with the Princess. It doesn’t prevent the suppertime breakdowns, it just dampens them a little. But, I’ll take what I can get.

Thanks for the linky love, by the way!
