Whooping cough
5 Answers
How long has the pre-school booster (or any toddler immunisation) included Whooping Cough (pertussis)? It is now a combination of four things, rather than three (I think it used to be three). Thanks.

Really? I know you have 5 kids, did they really not all just sleep? Apart from the odd nights of teething or illness, mine slept through from when they were weaned. The have always been early risers - not my best time of the day! - but have never been much bother going to bed or sleeping. I must have been really lucky. They never wanted in our bed either.......and never got out their beds until we went in for them in the morning. I thought that was pretty normal.
Hi Annie they go to bed lovely. But one is now on the sofa (but will go back in his bed when I take him up) and his sister will definitely be on our bed by morning (and he may or may not be). They have all been bed bunnies. When the first three were little I was still working and it was just easier. With thing 1 and 2 it is a case of keeping one quiet so they don't wake up the other. It won't go on for ever but I am finding it hard to break the habit with the twins. On the plus side, they haven't woken up before 8.30 all summer long despite the fact that they are fast asleep by 7.30.
there are always pluses sher. Ours were always up at about 6.30am. When they were babies it was fine as I was working and left just after 7am so I'd get up showered and dressed give them some milk and have a bit of a cuddle and they usually went back to bed for a hour for Dad. When they were older they didn't go back to bed, but as I was up anyway they had breakfast and watched a bit of tv until I had to leave and then Dad would get up. It was the weekends that were the nightmare - we took turns getting up so the other could get a long lie :o) Once they were old enough to be trusted to watch tv on their own (about school age) then i'd leave them a carton of fruit juice and a brioche or something and they'd munch on that and we could stay in bed til about 8. Now they just get up and do their own thing and make their own cereal etc. so I can stay in bed until about 9 at the weekend (still have to get up about 6ish for work during the week)
