luckily the baby just kindly goes back to sleep so I can deal with it 
hereās hoping my night isnāt too rough 
We had macdonalds breakfast. Baby elf had a hash brownAfter the usual night of wake ups every 2 hours and starting our day at about 5:15 I have made pancakes for the whole family this morning (egg free banana pancakes for the baby, gluten free normal pancakes for everyone else) plus a blueberry and strawberry sauce which I turned into chia jam for the baby... I'll expect my "mum of the year" medal any day now
I genuinely don't know what possessed me, I think I was filled with the festive spirit but I think I'm done for the day now, I've exhausted myself before 8am!
Iāve actually cried before trying to make pancakes and the first 2 coming out wrong. But that was with the premade āonly have to add milk/eggā mix, and Iāve never gone back to it. I always make my own, and even if the first one is a bit questionable, the rest turn out perfect. And now I really want pancakes š«
I donāt understand how theyāre so difficult to make and the first always goes wrong!
3yo loves them and can now make the mix independently, all I have to do is cook them. I also find pancakes easier than scraping weetabix off the floor after baby throws it Yes we have them a good few times a week as well. Plus we always make extra and freeze them, so after two or three making sessions weāve enough for breakfast from the freezer.Gosh, pancakes are on the menu for breakfast about 4/5 times a week here
Ahh we have a Victorian house and we have the same situation. I was on a thread earlier where someone said it was disgusting an influencer childās bedroom was 16.5 degrees and it made me feel bad! For us itās 16 with the heating on and itās barely going above that at all. He actually does seem warm enough though, his hands arenāt cold in the night but Iām with you on having to have the heating on just to keep them the minimum amount of warm
Is 16 degrees too low? Ive never even thought about it too much before Babyelfs room is 16 degrees now, we won't have the heating on again tonight. Hes in a vest, sleepsuit and 2.5 tog sleeping bag and hes been fine each night up untill now. Its supposed to get alot colder here in the coming week so I might get out the fleece pjs for him. I guess they would wake if they were cold wouldn't theyAhh we have a Victorian house and we have the same situation.

Yeah same for what heās wearing. I think weāll get fleece ones too. We need to look into getting our loft insulated as upstairs is definitely not as warm but I really donāt think 16 is that cold, I thought it was the minimum okay temp for babies?! He seems fine anyway so Iām going to stop worrying.Is 16 degrees too low? Ive never even thought about it too much before Babyelfs room is 16 degrees now, we won't have the heating on again tonight.

Just made me wonder what temperature everyone elseās rooms are in December!As far as I'm aware, they say 16-19 degrees is the idealYeah same for what heās wearing. I think weāll get fleece ones too.

Weāre in a new build and itās freezing, Iāve gone in his room every night this week and itās been around 15.6 so lower than the recommended temp I donāt think thatās the reason heās waking heās in a long sleeve vest sleepsuit 2.5 tog bag and his helmet is meant to keep some heat in. Heās slept his longest stretch when itās been under 16 but itās such a concern if he then gets illAhh we have a Victorian house and we have the same situation.

Can you get some foil behind the radiators to reflect some heat in? Maybe a draft stopper attached to the bottom of his door so the heat can't escape under there & some thick or doubled up curtains and blinds to block any heat escaping the windows too?Weāre in a new build and itās freezing, Iāve gone in his room every night this week and itās been around 15.6 so lower than the recommended temp I donāt think thatās the reason heās waking heās in a long sleeve vest sleepsuit 2.5 tog bag and his helmet is meant to keep some heat in.

I canāt afford to keep the heating on just to keep the house at 16 degrees so Iām having to put the heater on every time I go in his room so the electrics high instead
I feel absolutely rotten today I think Iāve woken up with some kind of stomach bug
