I'll try and be as brief as possible.
Up until about 5 months, baby Hawk was a miserable baby with lots of issues. A small snapshot: He was colic and we had him on acid reflux medication, probiotics, and he actually seemed to reject mama's milk, so we finally found that he could keep down Organic Soy.
Now he's a happy smiley kid growing like a weed. He's 7 months, 20lbs and ready to skip crawling and walk any day now.
I'll admit to using a pacifier in the beginning, it's the only way he and especially his older sister could get sleep on school nights.
Here's his sched now.
7AM- 6oz bottle
8AM - Breakfast
9AM - Sleep
11AM - 4oz bottle
12PM - Lunch
1PM - Sleep
2:30PM - 4oz bottle
3:30PM - Eat
5:30 - Sleep
7PM - 4oz bottle
7:30 - bath and bed.
11PM - Dream Feed
From 1AM till 6AM he will wake up quite a few times- he will go back to sleep eventually, but will belt out crying for quite a while. I usually wait around 5-10min before I go in - but again, he sleeps right next door to older sis and we want to keep her (an amazing EASY trained child) sleeping so she's not a mess at school.
He's definitely teething right now, but this has been happening for a while sans those little gum crushers.
Any advice?
