So we started doing EASY anout a month and a half ago and it has been very up and down, we also had to get rid of the dummy at the same time. Cam was doing great but now has started crying frequently during the night, most of the time he is not actually awake, eyes still closed, I go in and ssshhh pat him and he settles but then same thing between five and fifteen mins later. We have also had a few occasions where he wakes up screaming, eyes open, full on scream and won't settle until he has seen both myself and my partner ?night terrors.
His EASY is as follows-
E - 6am wake - recently has been waking at five but we leave him playing in his cot until six. Feeds just after waking 180mls.
A - Plays for two hours - proficient roller already at five months so gets lots of exercise. Not a new skill has been doing it for a few weeks.
S - 8am if 6am wake up, but always two hours after he wakes and sleeps soundly for 1.5 to 2 hours. Has been having a three hour nap if his night has been bad.
E - 10.30 180mls
A - for another two hours of play.
S - 12.00 another 1.5 to two hour nap
E - 14.30 180mls
A - for another two hours usually
S - 16.00ish a forty min nap usually
E - 17.30
A - bath at 18.00, some quiet play time and in bed by 18.30. usually goes straight down. The crying doesn't start until at least after midnight. When he was only doing it once or twice a night I use to pick up/put down and he would wake and then resettle himself to sleep, but I don't want to keep waking him all the time.
Any ideas appreciated.
He may be teething no definate bumps but chews particularly on hard or cold things. He also had a gastro bug recently which made things worse but is over that now.
