hey there,

kelly, i do think im picking up on the tired signs and as soon as he starts to get a bit grizzly i wrap him and put him straight to bed, he seems to go off ok but he will wake about 20mins - 40mins later and wont re -settle, he is clearly still tired but he just screams.

i too are hesitant to fully wean him and have held off giving him a bottle last night and will do the same tonight and see how we go.

Michael - i have spent four days at tresillian already and unfortunately they were no help, they basically told me that he was getting wind pains and there is nothing they can do for that and he will grow out of it, not very reassuring i know but i found them to also be very understaffed at the time aswell.
I am bathing lachlan in the evening, i try to BF then bath him then try to put him to bed but he seems to put up a fight, last night it took us two hours to get him to go to sleep.
He sleeps in a portable cot in with me at night time and during the day he is in his cot in his own room, both are quiet but my room is quite bright when the sun comes up which might contribute to him not settling very well when day breaks!
Im hesitant to put him in his cot overnight, its more a convenience thing for me so im not walking to his room, then back to mine, BF, then back to his room for bed so many times in the night!

I am going to see a paediatrician tomorrow so hopefully he can give him a good looking over to give me some peace of mind that nothing is majorly wrong ( i dont think it is)
But i would also like him to test for a lactose intolorance aswell. I will let you guys know how i go.

Thanks for all your support, i really appreciate being able to come on here and get things off my chest and to also be able to work through problems with people that understand!!
