Lots of hugs for the rough night, Eloys. I wonder why he screamed through the whole treatment?  Has he been there before?  XXXXXXXXXXX

they said the tense babies usually scream due to their nervous systems being on red alert as they are tense all the time.  He tends to over react at home like that too... like he is not a relaxed baby at all!  Hopefully after a few more treatments and he is used to it, and less tight it will not be so traumatic for him.

I was thinking it could be the new surroundings.  What does he over react to?  Perhaps a sensory thing like being hyper sensitive to certain sensory input?  Have you cued in to anything like that?

So the last few nights he's been waking ALOT,  some long NW's smoe short, but now pretty certain he's teething.  So glad that I was able to get several nights out of hinm with just one feed and lots of naps down without the boob.  At least I know now that HE and I can do it, and we will pick up where we left off after he starts feeling a bit better.

Jean: he is definantly touchy and has alot of nervous restless energy, alot of the touchiness and sensory issues I think are linked to his nervous system being on red alert and adrenals turned on all the time... hopefully the adjustments help to settle all that a bit. We'll see, otherwise its just in his nature.

Eloys, I really did like the book "Raising a Sensory Smart Child".  It may put some of those sensory things in to perspective.  (It connected a lot of dots for things that seemed unrelated to each other.)  H has both hyposensitivity (under reacts) and hyposensitivity (over reacts) to certain sensory input.  It does give some strategies for handling sensory issues.  I was able to see that a bit of what he needed was certain sensory input to sleep well, too.  And getting enough of the right sensory input during awake time also helped.  ;-) 

You are having progress!  YEAH!  :-)  Hugs for the teething; I hope they come in quickly. 

And congrats on the mod job!

Can you describe this a little more?  What are you noticing?  Is he uncomfortable (restless), seeking a certain sensory input (restless), or avoiding something (restless) by what he is doing?  Or the behaviors can be a mixture from what I noticed with H.  I really think the book may help give you some ideas; it describes a lot of behaviors that are the result of sensory needs.

More hugs and I hope the nights are going ok!  XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

ok just an update:   Kai STTN last night!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


So we just kept resettling after the first waking each night... sometimes it didn't work very well and I ended up feeding because he would keep waking 5 mins later after being asleep.  But gradually he has been waking once a night and its been getting towards 3-4am.   So last night he randomly just slept through from 8pm to 5:45am!!!

Oh and I think the chiropractic is really helping, he doesn't seem so hyper or distractable or reactive.

A long deserved for a wonderful mom!  Did you manage to sleep through, too?   I sure hope so!

(((hugs))) for the mummy waking. Although I did (and still sometimes do) find a kind of pleasure in being awake just because I am awake, not because a small person woke me... and lying there listening to the sound of a baby not crying.
