« on: March 16, 2009, 09:16:19 am »
my daughter is 4 1/2 months old and normally an amazing night sleeper...3 weeks ago she started waking and crying through out the night sometimes able to put her self back others completely ballistic...so for a week it went on i tried sh/pat nothing seemed to work so i fed her thinking maybe it was hunger...than it stopped for a week for no apparent reasonand now exactly 1 week to the day she stopped started again...last night she cried at 215 than 315 than 345 than at 415 she was screaming and could not get back to sleep...i have felt for teeth feel nothing...changed her diaper...she is still on 3 hour easy because she is not a very good napper...although in the past 2 weeks has been breaking the 45min nap mark lately...sometime 1h05 to 1h10....even 2 times has been crying in her sleep just before her dream feed....PLEASE PLEASE ANY SUGGESTIONS I AM EXHAUSTED!!!!

Sorry i just saw the post about some questions that should be answered...
she is 4 1/3 months sleep usually from 7- 730 to 630
nighttime always a bath than to sleep
she is awake no longer than 1h30 in day because she was ot due to short naps...since i have toned it down and really watched her cues they have went to over the hour mark most naps
3 hr easy still because extending a time ususally causes ot
she is bottle fed just increased to 5.5 oz/3 hr thought maybe it was hunger in the night
cant see or feel teeth
ususally 2 x1 h10min naps
2x 45 min naps
hope this extra helps

No props to sleep wind down is soft music in her dark room witha diaper change little leg massage with lotion i walk with her for about 5-10 min to get sleepy eyes no bouncing rocking though usually about 15 min before i takeher up its quieter too not loud toys etc.  i would love to get away from the walking if you have any suggestions because she will be heavy before i knowit.

yesterdays easy...not so much with her short naps it really messes the day
