Becky, thanks :)  I want my good ol' happy DS back.  DS's A time today is even shorter... about 1h and he's fussing and grumpy.  He also had, I believe, a night terror last night.  I don't believe we can put DS down to his cot these couple of days.

Update for today:  DS was tired all day.  1st A time was 1h just sitting on my lap.  Then a nap and up for a bit of rice and watched youtube... then he just laid on DH until 18:50 when we did our usual bedtime routine!  After the bedtime bottle, he just went down quietly like usual.  :) I couldn't believe how easy it was.  I'm sure he will wake in the night but that's ok... he's really not well :(

Thanks, Becky for following up. 

update: 2 april, put down after bedtime bottle, 2:40am NW (huge BM) changed, in our bed... back to sleep refusing water.  Woke at 7:55am!

3 april, put down after bedtime bottle, 00:20am NW (normal #2!! yay) but it was a while before he cried, not sure when he had the BM.  No water accepted and started crying from 4:30...  on and off.. won't accept water  about 5:55, i gave in and gave him his big formula bottle :(  Is it a backward step?  I was so determined to wean off night bottles.  He downed the bottle, rolled around and fell asleep till 8:40. 

Is it true that on recovery, LOs will have hunger attack?  He ate a bit more than usual but would still only eat plain rice and banana, no bread yet.   Gave him an extra bottle before nap, right after lunch, he downed it!!  I hope to give him as many calories during the day as possible. 

Am I doing the right thing?  Or should I just give more solids?  but he wouldn't eat more rice nor banana.
