Nightmare morning and its only 930

This follows on from a nightmare evening last night when Poppy refused to eat any supper without it being forced down her, then took an hour to go to sleep. Now after all that fussing you'd think exhaustion would keep her asleep until at least 6am.
505am she started crying, and i mean full on bawling. Couldnt comfort her so went to make up a bottle. She took the whole thing without stopping and went back down to sleep until gone 7am.

From then though she's pretty much moaned or cried with every breath until after over half an hour of fighting she's finally gone to sleep again. Breakfast was a no-no, even weetabix which she normally likes, then proper tears at wash and dress time.

What the hell are we doing wrong? Been wracking my brains for a solution by changing her feeding schedule around a bit so she'll eat more before bed, do we start the controlled crying technique at bedtime instead of staying in the nursery to settle her, what else can i do to get her to eat more? Whoever reassured me that it gets easier when they get past 3 months old was a big fat lier.

Thank god for cups of tea. I can tell I'm getting older as when i'm stressed i crave a nice hot, sweet cup. That's what I'm drinking now as i type this. I did briefly consider a nice sweet choccie biscuit to go with it as i sat down, but as my tummy is looking particularly flat today i dont want to spoil it.

I did go to that baby group yesterday and ended up being glad i went. Didnt leave until almost 12 o'clock and as she was pretty much a little angel yesterday until suppertime and slept for over 2 hours after lunch the afternoon flew by. Daddy was home before i knew it. It looks promising for having her birthday party there too, we can't technically hire it as it's a charity but we can have the party there and make a donation. Just need to talk to the boss lady who's back on Monday. Want to get it sorted now, was thinking of easy party foods for babies last night when i was meant to be going to sleep.
