'..Carter-James is back home, where he belongs.'
Kisses. Mwah. Mwah!
That was one of the most "worriest" times ever
as being mum with Carter-James,
because he is normally just so happy, bubbly, cheeky.
Everything that he shouldn't be doing, he does,
where I'm like, "No, Carter-James."
Where it wasn't, it was like, "Oh, come on."
Like, I was trying to get him to play,
just to get him a little bit more active, and he just wasn't doing it.
It was so upsetting.
But now seeing that he's trying to get my phone,
he's going to the Hoover, I just feel so much better.

You can tell how much better he is, though.
Yeah. It's just still horrible, that sound, though, in't it?

Yeah.

There was a bottle that came in the pack.

And that was, like, the first time I've seen him, and I was like...
Did he do its nappy? Yes.
Oh!Oh, gosh. He didn't even know where the tabs were.
See, when we had nappies, with Lauren...
Yeah. ..they were sticky,
so if you'd got baby cream on your fingers, it wouldn't stick.
They're sticky now.So you'd waste a nappy cos they used to be really...
No, but they're Velcro now. Oh, yeah.
And they wouldn't stick, so... We didn't have any... much money,
so nappies were exp... They used to be really expensive.
So Dad used to have to masking tape you into the nappy
so we didn't waste it.
Will just needs to improve on,
like, not worrying so much about it and just do it.
Yeah. Yeah, but it's like... I still learn things every day.
Yeah.There's nothing to say I'm right or wrong.

So, Khalil had quite a troubled night last night.
He was waking up constantly,
and his night terrors were starting up again.
OK, right, Khalil. Stop doing this. Stop that.
Why? Stop it. Come and stand here.
So neither of us got adequate sleep.
Bleurgh!
La-la-la-la-la.
Why do you have this much energy in the morning? Why?
Mixing the night terrors with the fact
that getting to bed itself has been quite a struggle
is a recipe for disaster because it just means
there's a chance he's gonna be more temperamental on mornings
or just not as cooperative.

ALYSSA: What's Khalil's behaviour like?
[SIGHS] He's not been too bad, you know.
He's started having, obviously, temper tantrums and stuff.
And his sleep, like, some nights, it's been taking us
an hour and a half, two hours, to get him down.
Oh, sorry. Thank you.
But, yeah, behaviour-wise, numerous times,
I have to try and remind myself, maybe he's not being naughty,
he's just acting the way he should be for his age.
And I'm just finding it stressful.
I'm scared for the discipline side.
But that's how I am. Like, I'll be like, "No, you can't do that."
Then I'm like, "Oh, no. I've just shouted at her.
"Now I feel really bad," and she's like, "Mummy..."
And I'm like, "Oh, come and give me a cuddle."
Women, we're so counterproductive.
We have all of these maternal instincts.
But when it comes to discipline, the maternal instincts get in the way,
cos we just wanna pick them up, but we shouldn't be doing that,
cos they need to learn, "You can't do that behaviour."Yeah.
Khalil's about to be four years old,
and he's about to be starting school,
gonna be in a completely different environment.
And I wanna make sure what I've taught him at home
and the way that I've parented him at home
shows in how he's like at school.
Cos I think my issue is, when I do tell him off,
for so long, I've been so soft
and so quick to go back on the telling-off,
but then it hinders me trying to parent
and teach him right from wrong at the same time.
I don't know if Miley's experienced night terrors,
cos Khalil's been having them for some time now.
It could be three in the morning,
he's woken up just screaming his eyes out.
And you go in the room, he's screaming more now
because he doesn't recognise who you are.
Apparently, you're not meant to go right up to them, are you?
You can't wake them or shake them cos you'll scare them even more.
Oh, like, he's actually asleep still?
He's still asleep. It's because he's not in a deep sleep.
He's in the REM stage of sleep, so rapid eye movement,
just before he goes down into the deep sleep.
And he's stuck between the two cycles.
Oh, my goodness. That's quite scary. Yeah.
I wouldn't wish it on anyone cos it's really not nice to see.
Watching Khalil experience night terrors is so heartbreaking
because as much as I try to be tough Mum,
listen, my first instinct is to just sprint to him,
is to just give him a big cuddle, make sure he knows I'm here.
But with night terrors, you can't do that.
All you can do is sit there
and, hopefully, they know that it's your presence there.
When it happens and I'm in uni, the episodes can last anywhere
from ten minutes to an hour, and that's at 2am in the morning,
so I'm just there trying to console him.
Yeah.And then I've got to be up at six, seven, getting ready.
So, will he just grow out of it, or...?
