Hi all
I have a beautiful 2 week old daughter who suffers from reflux and trapped wind. She sleeps well after her last feed at 10/11pm, however the time between 5-10pm is a nightmare.
She will just not settle no matter how few naps she's had during the day. So many people tell me this is pretty normal behaviour for a newborn and that they are generally unsettled in the early evening.
So my questions are:
- Is this indeed normal?
- If so, do they get better at settling?
- What do I do during this period? I don't want to get into a bad habit of just holding her for hours on end.
Any advice is greatly appreciated. I'm not looking forward to the hubby going back to work and me dealing with it on my own every night!!
