I'm not saying this is a global cure but for anyone who is sleep deprived and at their wits end...

My mum came to stay a few night ago and she is into lots of herbal stuff, anyhow when she saw DS crying and cranky she told me "Give him Brauer's teething relief 3 times a day. Then before he is due to go to bed give him a warm cup of strong chamomile tea with a teaspoon of honey."

Anyhow, fully convinced it wasn't going to be able to do what comforting and panadol haven't been able to do over the last 4 months, I did it for here sake to prove her wrong.....

He slept solidly from 8pm till 6:30am for the two days my mum was here. It has been two days since she left and the first night I did the chamomile but forgot the teething remedy, he woke up once and settled back with a cuddle. Last night I did both like she told me too and he slept 7:45 pm till 6:45am without me getting up once!

Again I'm not saying this is going to fix every problem your little one has, but by God I have appreciated being able to sleep 7 hours at a time!
