[QUOTE=“Mac, post: 1144243, member: 109”]This is bullshit. Our lad was sleeping through the night after 2-3 months. Don’t ask me how we managed it though.

A little harsh maybe, mac?[/QUOTE]

It probably was to be fair. I should have said “this isn’t always the case”

@HBV*

my guess is the child was bored out of its skull.

Very good mate

9 months

@TreatyStones

9 months

They’re great fun at that age. My youngest is 11 months now, personality really starting to shine through.

I knew this pot-shot was coming, I even thought about addressing it in my original post, but I said I’d give someone the opportunity to stock up on a few funny / like / agree ratings

@Onthesod

Congrats Taz… Say goodbye to a full night of sleep for at least 10-11 months… Great feeling though

it is not

[Onthesod]

@mickee321

it is not

To clarify, I meant the parenthood, not the sleep deprivation

@Mac

This is bullshit. Our lad was sleeping through the night after 2-3 months. Don’t ask me how we managed it though.

or maybe it had more to do with the child ?..some parents would claim credit for anything their child does…

i’m fookin dreading when I have to bring the little one to birthday parties and I’ve to listen to parents boasting about every fookin thing because the sad fact is they never developed an interest past their child…

4 babies born in the immediate family in the last twelve months. One is 13 months, one is 5 weeks ( the 13 month old is only sleeping the night since he was about 11 months), the other… well you can guess yourself. My two nephews, born in September and November, neither sleeping through the night yet…

that’s actually a great point and something that is very easy to slip into.
for example im abandoning my family on sunday at 11am to go to thurles, this is very important
cant find the time for football anymore tho, just cant keep up the training , im playing junior GGA football now for the summer and that’s a show up when u can type arrangement, all i can do now

I couldn’t claim credit for it at all. 3 of my mates all had kids within a few months of us and none of them sleep through the night properly. Its pot luck really.

Your last point is spot on too. Just because you have a child your life outside them shouldn’t end.
