...can babies be Touchy in one or two areas but not all? Sian is a text book baby in most ways I think - took to weaning very well - loves new flavours, happy to go to strangers if she's prepared by me, and she thrives on knowing whats coming next. Shes actually quite relaxed if her routines are in place...it was fairly easy to put her on the E & A parts of EASY - once her feeding body clock was set it took a week to shift her from hourly snacking to 4 hourly.
BUT when it comes to sleep she is a different child - very easily disturbed, a bang or click will make her scream, as will being touched. She hates too much light in her room, needs white noise. Her OT crying is something else - it sounds like someone is torturing the poor girl!...the most horrible high pitched squeeling - far worse than her pain cry! Its like someone has stolen my calm little smiler and planted a totally different child in the cot.
She so rarley cries properly - but it haapens all the time when she naps in the day - always a battle to calm and settle her down, then a battle to keep her asleep x
