ok, maybe you can help us:
we've just had third night of dd not sleeping. well, sleeping but waking every 1,5 hrs making "myyymmmmmeeeeemmmmm" kind of noises. and she wasn't really wide awake [once only, when she was sooo hungry that drained both of mommy's boobs] but it was so hard to calm her. two times paci helped, the other two I had to take her to bed and "feed" her [she wasn't really eating].
I think it may be teeth again, but I don't know if she's not hungry? she usually eats 14 oz of formula + two breast feeds per day and has been waking once, max twice at night lately. and now those sleep deprived three nights... I don't think it's growth spurt, her daytime feeds are normal.
I'm so tired and worried as I'm going back to work next Wednesday. and dh doesn't help me. he either doesn't wake up when she's moaning or says it's easier for me to get up as her crib is on my side of bed...
suggestions anyone?
