My chrome has just crashed - after I wrote you a long reply
So - first I want to thank you all for all the great support you give - it really helps me especially since I'm so depressed lately with the situation (mostly because I'm so tired). But your concern and answers really help!!!
So - I still need your support after the bad night we had
I haven't seen katie80 suggestion, but I thought also about that - yesterday we dropped the DF thinking that maybe the DF interfere his deep sleep ('cause sometimes when we had to go out and didn't get back at 23:00-23:30 to feed him he slept till 1:00 and even more). But LO had his own plans yesterday:
I fed him at 16:00, 19:000 and 20:00. Then put him to sleep (once again this was getting worse - it took him 30 min to finally fall asleep). I went to sleep at 22:20. Since his crib is in our room I heard him moving. He moved his head from side to side (he sleeps in his tummy) but didn't whine or cried, so I did nothing. But at 23:15 he started whining and I gave him the paci. He didn't sleep good - eventually I fed him at 00:00 hoping that at least this will give me 5 hours of sleep. But my hope worth nothing - even though the feeding at 00:00 was long and I felt he ate a lot - at 3:45 (what's with this hour???) he woke again. The paci didn't help and at 4:00 I fed him again. At 5:45 he started making noises and we took him o our bed tying to resettle him. Then he slept till 7:30. I left a EBF bottle to DH as I had to leave in the morning. He said that he didn't want to eat - ate only at 8:00.
So now I have few questions:
1. is this a habit? The NW at 23:00 ('cause usually he got DF)? what about the 3:45? This time I didn't hear any farting but i'm sure that hunger wasn't the trigger.
2. This morning (while writing to you) - once again I had to extend his morning nap after 40 min. Why?
We had few days when it was better. Yesterday was a perfect...
3. To make him sleep during the day it takes only few min for him to fall asleep. How come it doesn't the same for the night sleep?
4. Do you think the pat/shh (actually I use patting more than shh) can be a prop? Is it possible that in order to fall back to sleep at night he needs 30 min of patting?
5. As for dairy - I dropped milk products and tomatoes. I didn't see improvement in his skin. Plus - I really want to stop BF him but I'm afraid because of the intolerance... Maybe it'll make things better??
