hi ladies please help in any way you can.
about a week ago i started a thread about my son waking up screaming at night, i thought it was teething but i really dont think it is anymore. i dont know what to do? i am becoming so sleep deprived, im finding it very hard to function throughout the day.
jesse was always a great sleeper since 7months and when he hit 12months he was fantastic, go to sleep at 830 and wake up at 830-9am (sometimes he did wake once thru the night but went to sleep straight away). well hes 14 and a half months and for the past 3 weeks hes just been waking up screaming at night every 1-2 hours. and it takes a good 30min to get him back to sleep i dont know why he is doing this. his cry is like hes really wound up. ive tried everything pain relief wise in case it was his teeth but it never does anything. its not night terrors because hes not disorriented or anything like that. im seriously at a loss of what to do he eats quite a bit during the day and at night time, he will drink a full 8oz bottle even if hes literally just had one an hour beforehand. i keep telling my husband we cant keep giving him bottles when he wakes because hes having them every 2hours, but it seems to be the only thing that calms him down! i really need help.
i live on a small island and the doctors are horrible, if i go to see them they will just tell me to live with it 'its just a phase' etc. please
