My lo is 12 weeks today and we have been following EASY since about 4 weeks. Fin was doing really well, generally waking for one night feed at about 4am. At most he would do 2 and sleep pretty well the rest of the time. However for the past week he has started making those newborn grunting noises again. I think it could have something to do with being gassy as I can hear him passing wind. However the problem is that he spends most of the night in a fitful sleep, tossing, turning, grunting and for the past couple of nights crying (something he never does at night). All of this he does with his eyes closed.
He just can't settle himself. I always leave him as long as possible to see if he will sleep, pop his paci back in, shh-pat him in his crib but it doesn't really work. If I pick him up and hold him for 5 minutes he will relax and sleep well but an hour later he is in this state of half sleep again.
He goes down well for his naps in the day but will probably only have one 11/2 or 2 hr sleep. The rest will be about an hour. Also, it can be very difficult to get the calories in him during the day. He knows his own mind and if he's not hungry he cries if I try to feed him.
Anyway, any advice would be really appreciated. It can't be nice for him not settling properly all night and I could certainly do with more sleep.
