Sorry it has taken so long to respond . . . i am not sure if it could be teeth, i had a peek in there and can't see anything but who knows they just might be on the way. We are using Motrin for pain relief but still the waking and screaming continues. Things have gotten worse over the past four days as he is now caught a NASTY chest cold and won't really sleep in the day either
I have stopped the solids for two days now just to see if they were the culprit, I really think this might be the answer, but he really isn't drinking his bottles right now either so i am just going to wait until tomorrow to start over again with the rice cereal. One thought i had was maybe trying a soy based cereal to start with, does this sound alright or should it just be the rice cereal??
As for the swaddling it seems he cannot put himself to sleep unless he is swaddled, but i don't wrap him to tight that he can't get out of it later once he is sleeping. Sometimes i flip him on his tummy and he seems to sleep a little better that way.
A few of my friends have staged an intervention and are taking the kids for the WHOLE NIGHT!! I am hoping that my husband and i will be able to get a great sleep in and then be able to get ready to tackle this again!
Really appreciate everyone's help!! Hope you are all well!
