Sorry...

Ah, I am sorry for the absence :( We have been having quite a few struggles with Miss Q recently. For the past 2 months we have been dealing with a dairy intolerance episode which resulted in her having an upset tummy and being full of wind on a night-meaning she was waking 8-12 times a night. One very tired mumma. Also, cue this week, Mamma and baby matching tummy bugs! Oh yes, what a way to start off half term-sitting in our favourite cafe, me dressed very nicely in a black jumper drinking my Americano while Q snuggles in for a nap (I knew something was wrong when she did this). Next thing I knew she was throwing up all of her breakfast down my jumper :( Poor little one was really ill with it. She did manage to bounce back the next day though! I came down with it on Wednesday and didn't recover so quickly :( We are also having major teething pains. Poor little miss only has her 2 bottom teeth at 13 months but the top two are just pushing to come out-come out already!! Give my little one some relief :) Couple those teething pains with wanting to nurse ALL THE TIME and separation anxiety. I am finding this all very difficult to deal with. The full time nursing is causing me problems because I already have a supply issue and she just gets frustrated when she wants to nurse and either the milk isn't flowing fast enough or there isn't enough there? I don't know. We struggle and struggle with it and it leaves us both exhausted and crying :( It is very hard this parenting thing. I naively thought it would get easier but oh ho no, it stays the same with just different dilemmas and growing pains! :D 

On the other hand, I have taught two yoga classes! Both beginner's sessions and the feed back that I received was very favourable. Ideally, we will be able to carry on with it and put together a 6 week course for varied abilities. Really looking forward to exploring that and any other opportunities that come along.
