Hi Ruth


Really sorry to hear you are having a tough time with sleep deprivation. I have no NCSS experience, but just wanted to say that daughter was also a nightmare (big shock after son who was amazing) and at about 6 months I too had pretty much lost the will to live. At about 7 months though, we really did seem to turn a corner. We weaned at 6 months, but I don't think the meals themselves made a huge difference, it was more that knowing she had been filled up a bit more during the day gave me the confidence to start being a little stricter with not immediately offering a bf at night wake ups. I thought it would be really tough and she would refuse to go back to sleep without milk, but was surprised that she settled pretty well (we obviously had the inevitable relapses from time to time) with a dummy (if that is something you can/would use) a ssshh and patting etc. My husband was instrumental in this though, as he would often be the one to go to her so that she could not smell the milk on me.


Really good luck and hope things start to improve, and sorry if this is all really obvious and you have tried it all. Just wanted to give my experiences that a few weeks on from the stage you are at there really was light at the end of the tunnel .

I was also wondering when reading the title but it must be the No Cry Sleep Solution

      Who was Diana Rayworth, when 'resting from acting'. Her successful career was very sadly cut short following a devastating accident.

      thanks Jenijenjen and all - yes, i remember walking or taking the bus from the elephant (where i was working) to Camberwell to get there.  I think Tim - who's still at Franklin's -  was there in those days, and the woman who ran the cafe!  Other food places that i remember fondly are the ones in Neal's Yard (with the Hunkin sculpture that you could put a coin in ) and the basement lunch place at the Tottenham Court Road junction with Hanway Street...

      Did you try the emergency number posted above? It mentions lift breakdowns over the festive period outside the advertised  times. Hope you got it sorted x

      Be careful in local shops

      By Sue · Posted

      People working in shops should not be "attempting to do the bill in their head." Nor if questioned should they be  trying to "get to an agreeable number." They should be actually (not trying to) getting to the correct number. I'm afraid in many cases it is clearly more than incorrect arithmetic. One New Year's Eve in a restaurant (not in East Dulwich but quite near it) two of us were charged for thirty poppadoms. We were quite merry when the bill came, but not so merry as to not notice something amiss. Unfortunately we have had similar things happen in a well established East Dulwich restaurant we no longer use. There is also a shop in East Dulwich which is open late at night. It used not to display prices on its goods (that may have changed). On querying the bill, we several times found a mistake had been made. Once we were charged twice for the same goods. There is a limit to how many times you can accept a "mistake".  There is also a limit to how many times you can accept the "friendly" sweet talking after it.
