My son has always been a terrible sleeper but I had got him down to 1 watered down bottle and this was the only time he woke at night 7.30pm-6pm. Falls asleep himself with only a small amount of comforting (which is incredible for us)
The last week he has woken at 1am for 2 hours screaming every night. Nothing will settle him and he won’t even pat or cuddle to sleep. I have given him calpol and later ibuprofen, changed his not very wet nappy and offered him a watered down bottle which he refuses.
I don’t know what to do. Tonight I am just leaving him to scream. Currently been screaming 1hr.
Please help me I am having to look after him in the day and make my hours up in the evening everyday as I am wfh with Coronavirus do get no downtime at all.
