So to give some back ground DS has been at nursery for the last 8 weeks and he is just over 6 months old. The last couple of weeks nursery has been saying that he cries a lot during the day and is hard to get to sleep (he's not a great sleeper at home either I'm up with him ever few hours through the night) before that though he has been really happy at nursery which he is normally at home.
So just picked him up today and was going through the normal hand over stuff about how his day has been and again they mention that he hasn't been the happiest chap and fairly tearful and shouty and getting bored/ annoyed after playing with things for about 10 minutes this all said as if it's surprising a 6 month old doesn't want to play with the same stuff for longer then that (am I wrong to assume that little babies don't have a great attention span?).
It then turned out that whilst trying to get him to sleep they have left him in a swing chair screaming for 45 minutes until he finally fell asleep. Am I being unreasonable to not want them to leave my baby to scream for 45 minutes until he cries himself to sleep and how do I talk to them about this without being seen to be the stroppy OTT mother. This is the same nursery we used for DD and she loved it and we were really happy with them hence using them again this time round. It has left me feeling real upset to think that he has been left screaming and crying for all that time.
So collective power of mumsnet set me straight am I being to precious second baby or should I have a word and how should I go about having that word?
Sorry this is so long.
