Hi everyone.
Just wondering if anyone else has noticed a drastic change in sleep after they changed the diet of their babies??

My boobie fed DD (10 months) was sleeping quite well. Then recently, for about two weeks, she began waking over 6 times a night, and screaming, and taking ages for us to settle. Even the boob didn't help get her back to sleep, it was awful. She was awake for hours at a time in the night, and no amount of rocking/walking/patting could convince her to go back to sleep

Anyway, I thought about it, and realised she had been eating a lot of custard made from regular custard powder (so yellow!). This was the only new thing in her otherwise super-healthy-home-made-nothing-artificial diet. So I stopped giving her custard, and wham! She slept sooooo well for the next three nights, last night she slept from 7pm til 4am, had a quick feed then back to sleep til 7am! Previous night she didn't feed til 6am!! This is such a breakthrough for us, we really were at a loss to explain why she turned in to such a night terror child! We hope it lasts.

Anyway - I thought I'd share that in case anyone else has a similar problem, and also see if anyone's baby reacted to other seemingly mild foods in such a way?
