Apart from cry, that is.
Been here before. DS is 7m now. Our third baby so we are not newbies. He has always been an appalling sleeper. Where we are now:
Self settles after BF at 7pm. Bedtime routine. Wakes up screaming at 9. Screams despite all efforts until 10. BF. Goes to sleep (sometimes needs settled 2 or 3 times) for a couple of hours. I bring him into bed after that as I'm shattered. Quite happy in bed with me. One or 2 wakings but quicky settled with BF.
What is this screaming?? He is a happy, relaxed baby during the day. A bit pukey. Fully weaned, mix fed (I am going back to work in 3 weeks).
We have tried, unsuccessfully;
Gaviscon
Ranitidine
Infacol
Tiger In the tree
Leaving him to cry
Car seat
The head of the cot is elevated
He has a dummy
He is probably teething but he has always been like this so can't just be the teeth.
Has anyone experienced this? I think GP is going to refer us but I think they'll come up with nothing.
I'd say I was at my wit's end but I was there 3 months ago. I'm at the end of my wit's end. Will it ever stop?
