PLEASE HELP! This is really two questions:
I have a 10 month old who has NEVER once slept through the night. I have tried absolutely everything, to no avail. Even when he sleeps with us, which at least calms him down, he still wakes every three hours or so. Q: Is anyone else going through this?
He's been really poorly over New Year but is on the mend. However, I am being driven completely demented. When he is put down at bedtime (used to be pretty easy) he now screams and scream and screams some more. He will not back down and can keep going for a very long time (I've gone 45 mins so far). I've tried just going in to reassure but the screaming just continues. If I of DH give in and pick him up he's all smiles. This goes on for HOURS. I haven't sat down in the evening for at least a week and am getting ratty and exhausted. Q: Do you think this is related to illness or is a new stage (maybe separation anxiety?) I have another DS and we didn't go though any of this.
