Our angelic 7 months old (just turned 7 months) has started to moan and suddenly turned into this moaning monster, but terrible kind of moaning, really demanding and constant. She is sleeping in her cot at least 12 to 13 hours at night, goes down at 6:30pm every night and wakes up around 7am and has one short nap in the morning then about 1 hour and half in the afternoon. She has three meals a day..well prepared for her if she eats it or not, it's really up to her as we are doing BLW and about 5 bottles a day and 1 bottle at 11pm. I don't know if this has to do with her starting to crawl, but crawling backwards at the moment so this is very frustrating for her. But even when we are sitting at the table, she demands that I give everything to her that I'm eating as well, and just drops everything on the floor and won't take anything with spoon...I can't read anything because she wants to tear it all up..and she doesn't like lying on her back anymore (for changing or bath which she used to love..) And she started drinking bathwater on her tummy in the bath and eating baby sponge that I clean her with and sponge that she sits on. Only thing that makes her calm is looking out the window or going outside. And it feels like she's controlling us with her moaning....so tired at the end of the day and not sure if this is normal. She is entertained by me and DH all day as we work from home and we are both spent. I don't know how other moms do it.
