And so it begins

Sod this always remaining positive lark. I need to be able to vent. Things are difficult right now. The baby is still sick. She has a cold now on top of everything else. I think maybe it is just the illness coming out of her at last. The MB thought it was an allergy last night which it so obviously isn't and she is a Doctor. So another day stuck in. I'm not blaming the parents but it is really hard and isolating.

The MB knocked on my door at 6.30am to say that DB had to leave early. I hate that. If he had told me last night I would have got up early. I know I am supposed to be flexible but I like to know what I'm doing and then she stood there telling me all these important details and I was half asleep and not retaining any of it.

Seems they think I don't change the baby's nappy enough. She is meant to have 4 changes through the day, every 3 hours. It does bug me when parents don't let me use my judgement but I guess she is their baby so I'll change her and waste a nappy whether she is wet or not.

DB took Baby E last night around 3.30pm when he got home. I stupidly thought he would know what to do with her and ended up kind of being blamed for her not having her tea because he never thought to give it to her. I'm sorry but this guy is a Doctor. Silly me for assuming he would know his child needs food to survive. I don't think it is any kind of excuse for MB to say he never looks after her. That is not my fault. It is his flaw. Any normal person knows babies must eat.

Rant over. It's just hard being stuck in. I am sure once they move and things settle down and the baby gets well then things will be fine.
