    OMG Calgon Take Me Away! It's One Of Those Days!

    I have a new DCG 12m who is doing integration this week. She is a screamer, I've never heard a child scream so loud or so long and I've been doing DC for 13 years .

    She was ok this morning, and then at nap time - which started an hour and 20 mins ago it's like a switch flipped. SCREAMING, no tears - just blood curdling SCREAMS. I put her on the second floor in a spare room and everyone is down on the main floor in their usual bed spots. It makes NO difference, she is screaming her head off. I've even gone in to hold her - nope, doesn't work.

    I called mom, apparently DCG does this at home and they neglected to tell me before. OMG, as if they deal with this at home?

    Just when I think she is calming down, AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!
    I'm going to pull my hair out.

    It doesn't help that I woke up with an insane headache this morning either.

      The title of your post made me chuckle. We have had a ton of craziness here too so it was like you read my mind. Thursday means almost Friday.... you can make it. Earplugs/ipod?

      Good Luck!!!!!

        I had one like this also. It took a couple of weeks but it finally stopped. Hang in there. I also found putting a radio in there helped not sure if it is the music or maybe just the noise. Don't you just love when parents forget to tell you these things.

          My day was yesterday!!! I can't blame it on the moon phases, either. Guess it just runs in streaks!

          Hope your day gets better, and TGTIF (thank goodness tomorrow is Friday!!!!)

            yes just think of that...one day closer to FRIDAY which means one day closer to the weekend...

            hugs to you....try to listen to some relaxing music and do some deep breathing to relax yourself. that works for me, maybe get a pair of ear buttons...
