[quote=Anonymous]Not to take the thread over but I am in the same boat as you OP - perhaps worse!  I have three under three and one of my two year olds (twins) is pushing my buttons so badly, that I have found myself yelling at him quite a bit in the last few weeks.  I feel so guilty for it but I can't help it.  I remain calm, calm, calm and then snap.  I am okay when the baby is being good but he has reflux, so when he has off days, I am losing my patience really quickly.  Plus it does not help that the baby has not slept for more than four hours straight since his birth 15 weeks ago.  Yesterday was the worst and I had to call my dh home from work becasue I found myself shouting "Shut Up" in his face.  The baby had finally settled after a bad few hours and his screaming when I had to put him in a time out woke him - I just snapped. I have not stopped thinking about it since.

Our pan of action currently is :  We are going to hire a sleep consultant for the baby to help with getting more sleep for myself and also I am going to sign up with PEP's Anger Management Class which starts shortly.

Does anyone else have any more advice? And please no-one rail against me for screaming that at him - I have been in tears about it ever since.

Thanks![/quote]
