I was just thinking about arsenic hour this afternoon and now I find a post here about it. I think that I have an arsenic hour too which also falls in the afternoon. Sometimes both my bubs throw hissy fits in the morning buts its never so hard for me to deal with the morning dramas as the evening ones. I think that by the end of the day its much harder to stay calm and level headed.
I'm starting to think maybe my 4 month old dd Abbie has one of these, hers is from 11:00 to 12:30 in the afternoon. The first time was about a week or so ago, she got really fussy and cried - at the time she was just getting over gastro plus meeting her grandpa for the first time. About a week later she was crying inconsolably around the same time of day, her grandpa was visiting again so we attributed it to that. Today she had a major crying fit just before and after her 11:00 am bottle, I thought maybe she is going through a growth spurt and wanted more formula.....but maybe its an Arsenic Hour rather than the different events that caused her fussing? Interesting!
