#1416 Friday 2 December

Ooooo wot a night!!! She didn't sleep till 2am.  Naomi took first shift till 11:30 .... I slept from 7pm to 11:30..... then Naomi slept and I handled it till she finally gave in at 2am.   A large factor in this stellar performance is .... we suspect .... the dreaded constipation.  She is on iron tablets for low iron levels .... and the codeine for pain from the tooth .... both these have a side effect of constipation.   This morning it will be a visit to the chemist to find an "unblocker".

The discomfort from the constipation is prducing anxiety behaviour .... she's fixated on "Bali" .....  

9:25pm  The pattern from last night is repeating .... except that it's not pain or constipation .... she is wanting attention .... she wails for a period .... then listens to see if there's a response .... no response? .... more wailing.  We have to wait her out and break the pattern

9:45 .... I think she may have given in and gone to sleep.
