The girls are giving me a hard time at night, for no particular reason. I can put up with being woken up if they're sick, but this is just really rude. They've woken me 4 times in 4 hours. It's now 2 am and I'm too irritated to sleep. They'll be waking me up again at 6am as per every morning (no matter what time they've gone to bed). They're doing this to be regularly. As an insomnia sufferer, this is really hard as it is so hard to get back to sleep once they've woken me. And if I don't get more than 6 hours sleep I feel so weak the next day and have an ugly sensation in my chest, much like hunger pains, but it extends from my belly to my throat. It's so hard to put up with it. I ended up yelling at both of them just now. I'm so sick of it!!

I'm gonna put agate on my 2 1/2 yr olds bedroom as she's still in a cot due to having another baby,so nw she's settled with her other brother I'm converting her cot to the small bed....I know she will be running out her bedroom in the morning and I don't want any accidents ....or incase she goes for a walk in the middle of the night....

Is it ethically correct, physically and psychologically safe to place a safety gate on my children's door? my 4 year old sleeps throughout the night, were my 2 year old wakes up at least twice. One time he is afraid from spiders, the other time he asks for milk... I have to put him back in bed and sleep beside him for a while every time. It is really exhausting with a 6 month old baby who feeds 3 times at night :'( <em>edited by D-J on 05/12/2011</em>
