Nic, Alicia, Tinsel- I'm here with you too. We had a screaming fit that lased from 3am till 6am. Same deal as Nic- didn't want to feed, didn't want water, didn't want a cuddle, had had bonjela (and I really don't think he had sore teeth, I can usually pick that one). No pain in his belly. Just screaming. I couldn't even rock him off because he wouldn't let me hold him. Just wanted to sit ont he floor and scream. Made me so cranky.
Bekz- We tried that your technique once a while back and it actually seemed to be working well. But I got to the point where I couldn't stand the crying anymore, it was too stressful for me and i was just so tired after a couple of nights of it it seemed easier to just give in so I could get some sleep But it might be worth trying again. This is making us all miserable, even Ty- he is so overtired all the time because he is up so much at night and not getting proper sleep. If he was still happy, just waking up to feed then sleeping again, I could deal with that. But the child needs to learn how to sleep!!!
What i worry about some days is, what if this is still going on when he's a toddler and he can answer me back, and get himself out of bed? That will make it all so much harder. Some days I think we need to get the sleeping problems out of the way now, not later.
And then, other days, I am just too damn tired and can't be bothered dealing with any of it.
