Pretty good night for you guys! No teeth here yet though still very runny nose, very cranky and red bumpy gums. Poor little guy. He was asleep between 7:10-7:15, cried out around 2 and around 4 (but didn't need me) and up for day by 6:15.

Sorry...busy day today! We had an alright day. A 40 min am nap and a 1.5 hr pm nap so a little bit low on daytime sleep. He was into bed early (6:15) as he woke up so early this morning. Hopefully we have a good night.

Sounds like your night didn't go too badly either. How was his day? Does he seem to be feeling better at all?

Hey there - sorry for the delay, things have been crazy here too - getting stuff packed, thrown out, donated, etc. And figuring out what's going on with my sister - which we finally discovered late today is acute pancreatitis probably cause by insanely high (previously undiscovered) triglycerides and fat content in her blood. She'll be in the hospital for some time while they get the inflammation down and pain under control and then figure out where to go from there - she can't eat or drink anything for now either...

As for us, we've been ok. He's still congested and teething pretty badly but appetite has been much better and mood mostly better too - still needing some Motrin or Tylenol but not as often. Gums look quite a mess but nothing through. He slept a lot today (had to wake him after 2 hours this AM and one hour car nap this PM) and fell asleep much faster than usual for him at 7:25 tonight - curious to see if all that day sleep leads to a long NW tonight but he seemed to really need it.

How you have had good days/nights!

Karen, I am so sorry to hear about your sister! That sounds just horrible. The poor girl. It sounds like you have a lot of stress in your life right now. ((hugs)) I am glad to hear that your DS seems to be doing alright despite the cold and teething.

We keep having lots of NW's again. Not really sure what is going on as we have stuck to the same routine. I would say at this point, the medication does not seem to be working. I think I am going to give him the 1.5ml dose the doctor said to try if the 1ml dose isn't working. We have the occasional good night but we had that before the medication also so ??? I am not really sure what to do with him sleep wise. This is what our days are looking like:

Wake 6:30
S: 9:45-10:25
S:1:30-3:10 (ish)
Bedtime 6:40 (ish)

I don't know!

Hi there Jenn, I just split off your newest post to a new thread, so we can get more eyes on your thread...it really could be developmental for Ethan but let's see if anyone has any new ideas!!

Post any advice for Jenn & Ethan here:
