Looks like we are in for a bit of a long night as apparently the wrong food was given ...
... to @smallsteps and she has an upset stomach. She is feeling fine otherwise and is in a good mood at least - it is unlikely I will be by morning though. :)
One of the skills of battle is being able to operate under sleep deprecation and I am pretty sure part of the training involves caring for sick children. I am well trained in the art of sleep deprived war, which I am pretty sure is a book by Sun Tzu.
I don't have much issue sleeping these does though I feel that I don't get a good quality sleep.
Today I bought some CBD oil drops that are supposedly meant to help with sleep and I will see how they go. My wife can test them too as she has sleeping issues which likely is exacerbated by the snoring bear that she hears. I have never heard it.
Unlike many countries, Finland is nowhere near legalising cannabis usage even though I think it would benefit and complement the healthcare system quite a lot. CBD oil however is available, as it is not the component that gets you high. I have never tried it before but have heard from some friends it has helped them.
When my mum was suffering with cancer I tried to get her to take some for the pain as she refused to take any of the pills, but due to its illegal status at the time. I am not sure what the laws in Australia are these days.
Anyway, let's see how it goes and whether I will have a chance to sleep much tonight or if I will be up with the little one.

CBD is worth a try as it's harmless and can really help a person ahead <3 When I read about 'wrong food' in relation to @smallsteps I was thinking of allergies so I was sort of relieved it was 'only' an upset stomach. Still sucks, so I wish her well - and the two bigsteps some regenerative sleep after ;-)
Worth a shot and it is one of those "no harm, no foul" things to try. The stomach is an allergic reaction to something she ate at the daycare, and we were warned a mistake might have been made. She seems okayish this morning though, which is goood as it can last up to three days :)
Not sure about CBD but I’ve eaten food, usually too late at night, that caused me to have a bad nights’ sleep. So unpleasant...But I’ll repeat the process because midnight is made for midnight snacks. 🤪

We definitely eat too late around here and lately there has been a lot of late night cheese :D
Cheese is the best, but it's wise to create boundaries around it...Ah, who am I kidding, it's too good to pass up,
evenespecially at midnight snack time.There is something in cheese that evokes vivid dreams, which makes sleeping far less boring :D
I get that too...Perfect reason to eat more I think.
I've never tried drops, but we half some CBD infused balm that we often use for muscle pains -- or anyhing you could target with a topical treatment. On a more personal note -- here in Canada where it's all legalised, I've hard great results w/ using it as a sleep aid. I know the healing power that a good nights rest delivers -- best of luck!!
I wish that there was a greater range of products available here and I am unsure about the import laws for it. I will be interested to see in a few years what has changed medically in Canada due to the legalisation.
I personally don't feel the effects of CBD oil, which I had tried also to relax and sleep better. For me, Valerian root pills is the only thing that really worked, but it smells soooo bad! Worth giving a try though =)
Valerian root sounds like something out of GoT :)
I have heard that some people don't get much from CBD oil, but I will give it a shot for a few nights to see if it helps. At the very least, it doesn't taste very good !
LOL it tastes horrible! better to smoke it heheh
I hope @smallsteps is well and hale in the morning.
Be well!
Cheers. she woke up happy and while still a little upset, her stomach was much better than last night.
You are blessed by her good health, and I am glad of it.
Hope you got some decent sleep and that small's upset stomach wasn't too bad :)
She was okayish in the morning and was super excited because today at daycare it was a kids birthday, so she could wear a princess dress. :)
Sleep was okay, I will try the drops again for a few days.
I reckon she should be able to wear a princess dress whenever she wants ;D Yay for sleep being okay! Good luck for a few days and small had fun at the birthday :)
She does at home at least. She likes to get dressed up in "city clothes" when we go shopping.
LoL cute, she's probably got a better dress sense than I do XD
I love CBD! There's a little place right around the corner of my house that sells all sort of CBD products--joints, gummies, tinctures, you name it. It's a great little family-operated business, and they are super-responsible and well-informed about CBD and cannabis culture in general. They even donated a bag of goodies for my company's October breast cancer fundraiser!
