My 9m dtd has cried since 2pm yesterday! No tears just noise i have tried everything teething gel, calpol, bum cream, food, playing i even took her out in Pram at 1:30 am.
She had all the other 4 children up & my neighbour came round this morning to tell me she was exhausted because she heard her through the wall.
Wibu to hope that when dm comes to see us this evening she Will offer to take the little devil for the night so the rest of us can hear ourselves think?

I think your neighbour is being unreasonable ! What does she think you're doing staying awake all night for fun ! I hope your mum gives you a break .

whenever mine cried like that it always meant she had an ear or throat infection or both - take your dd to the doc first.

Also check her head for the 3 six's OP.

pinkdelight · 16/11/2012 16:10

Why wouldn't you take her to the GP already, if it's that constant and disturbing?

overmydeadbody · 16/11/2012 16:13

Is she still crying?

I remember my little brother did this once, creid non stop for nearly three days and finally the doctors found he had a cold sore at the back of his throat. Very very painful.

Hope your dd is ok and you all get some rest soon!

bedmonster · 16/11/2012 16:18

Oh calm down someone, OP is having a tough time.

Hope you get some respite soon, it's hard when you have others too. Symapthy from me. Smile If I was your mum I would take your DD.

I thought health advice was any crying that lasts 24 hours should be checked by a doctor?

HecatePropylaea · 16/11/2012 17:22

Take her to the doctor.

SkinnyMarinkADink · 16/11/2012 17:24

My dd did that at 8 weeks and nearly died of a hernia hope you've had her checked out

Doogle2 · 16/11/2012 17:30

Sorry to hear you're having a rough time. I think it was mean of your neighbour to say anything. I would have offered you some support!
I think your mum will struggle for the whole night so why not ask her to take your baby for a couple of hours whilst you have a bubble bath and some time out?
If its the same story tonight I would pop to the doctors tomorrow just to check all is ok. Good luck.

amillionyears · 16/11/2012 17:36

What is her normal behaviour?
This sounds out of the ordinary,so hope you are taking her to the GP if necessary. Better safe than sorry.

NoraGainesborough · 16/11/2012 17:55

I would be taking her to the doctors or walk in centre, tbh.

Hope she is ok and has settled.

OldMumsy · 16/11/2012 18:24

ear infection and then you will fee like the shittest mother ever for not being more sympathetic. I think we've all been there have a Wine and get her to the doctors.
