[Parenting Live Report] #17 My Second Daughter, Please, I Beg You

What's wrong, my second daughter?

What on earth is happening inside you?

For about the past week,

your night crying has suddenly started up again.

...No,

maybe it's closer to calling it

"night screaming" rather than "night crying."

Just when I think you're in the world of sleep,

as if you've been possessed by something,

you suddenly start screaming at the top of your lungs.

"MOMMY!!!"

"DADDY!!!"

“Hold meeeeeeeee!!!!”

And so,

At the worst times, about every hour,
that crying voice echoes, so

both Dad and Mom,

are pretty much exhausted.

And even when we do hold her,

she doesn't calm down at all...

But,

as for our eldest daughter during all this,

miraculously, she stays asleep almost the whole time.

This is truly a huge help.

If a night comes where both of them are screaming at the same time,

it won't just be a matter of "the children" anymore.

We'll probably all four be crying.

That kind of future,

is actually quite easy to foresee.

Last Wednesday,

since it was a holiday and the nursery school was closed,

the rhythm we had finally managed to establish,

might have gotten a little disrupted.

Even this past week,

even on days without nursery school,

I tried to keep our daily routine,
mostly unchanged.

The exhaustion from the consecutive nights of "night screaming",

It's gradually piling up, isn't it?

But,

Daycare starts up again today.

So, actually,

"Maybe things will calm down starting tonight...?"

I'm secretly hoping for something like that.

Please, I'm begging you.

To our home,

please grant us a quiet night.

That is all from the scene.
