My DS is nearly 9 months old. When feeding or sleeping his hand is constantly trying to grab things. Right now he is feeding and his hand is waving round grabbing my nose, hand etc. once he has grabbed something he will shake it back and forth violently. The problem ( apart from a scratched nose) is that he often grabs himself - ear, hair, sleeping bag and then wakes himself up. In his cot he will grab the bars/mesh wrap and pull towards it until he bashes his head or pull out his dummy if he has it in and hit himself in the face all of which wakes him. He is a terrible sleeper (3hrs ins row max) and this isn't helping! Anyone have any experience or tips? Apologies for typos I wrote this all out & was reviewing it when the hand grabbed it and all was lost so am now posting unedited!!
