DD has been asleep on & off since 8am this morning. Am sure this is because she was awake from 4pm until 9pm lastnight screaming. & then unsettled agin for about 2 hours in teh middle of teh night. I'm aweekday sinlge parent (as Dh leaves at 7 & is never home before 7.30 if at all) with a 3yr old DS & the screaming has been doing my head in. teh only position she likes is being hung over my shoulder - not teh most practical way to get anything done & now I ahve wasted half a preciuos saturday being scared to go too far from her side in case she wakes up & wants feeding.
I have given up dairy more or less in case that was causiong teh colic (not easy for a vegetarian to do) have been giving her colief to try & ease teh worst of teh night time dramas. ahve started cranail oestopathy last week - I can't think of anything else to do & this si driving me round teh bend.
Sorry I know no-one can do anyhting to help just had to vent how bloody knackered frustarted & cross I'm feeling today.

I don't know if anyone's mentioned it but cranial osteopathy works miracles for this. I didn't get ds2 treated for colic but know a lot of mums who have and they bf.
