First topic message reminder :sooooo the past few nights elijah has been up every hour or two (going
on about a week now actually), at first i thought well new house,
teething etc he will settle, but last night was the worst of all and i
didn't manage to get him to stay asleep in his cot until gone 6am this
morning (
)
now, i am no stranger to having a baby who doesn't like to sleep, or at
least doesn't like to sleep in his own bed, but he had his tea a bit
earlier yesterday (6pm rather than 7 or so) and because he started
crawling in the evening he probably used a lot of energy up, i didn't
get him to go to sleep til midnight (then began the trying to put him
down game)....
so i am wondering, although nearly everytime he woke up, i fed him
(desperation and worrying about him waking everyone up), he fell almost
straight back asleep without feeding much - but could he still have been
hungry for solids??? i wonder if a little bowl of plain rice + ebm
would have helped???
i know i am probably grasping at straws
but we tried calpol, putting the heating on, shooooshing him, feeding him (bf),
putting him down still awake.....but all to no avail. he could have been
overtired (almost certainly by the middle of the night), but there was
something else and i can't figure it out!
