I have just joined this website and I think its great. I just hope somebody can help me with my dilemma. (sorry in advance-this is a bit long winded)
On page 235 of The Baby Whisperer book, it says 'How to adapt P.u/Pd. If your baby is burrowing her head into the mattress, turning her head from one side to the other......This is what my 6 month old has been doing for 5 months now throughtout the night. Does anybody else baby do this?
We discovered she has got reflux so has been on medication for a few months (rantidine, domperidone, and gaviscon) and even that was on my recognition and not the doctors..they thought she had colic. I thought she kept rubbing her face in my chest, mattress because of the reflux or teething pain, but still am not sure. The reflux is a bit better in the day time as I have changed her formula milk to Enfamil AR which is fantastic, as she does not spit up as much. But I the night time is still really really bad. She wakes up around 1 am every night then the rest of the night she is rubbing her face as if she has some kind of pain in that area...we are just sick of having no sleep. Keira is not getting any quality sleep' and now I have to move her into her own room out of the moses basket into a cot, and I am worried that she will not sleep at all then as I am not there straight away to comfort her.
Please can anyone point me into the right direction...who to see?. We have been to an cranial osteopath but did not help. I do not know what to do...the Paed seems to not see this as an urgent case cause she isn't losing loads of weight.
Thank you.
