Thats what Dh says, but I admit I am thinking of seeking help ATM. ABA, MHN< GP, everyone and anyone. As I say to DH screaming and throwing a tantrum is not a normal way to wean, and he is getting progressively worse with the tanties, he is inconsolable...... There is NOTHING we can do to calm him, and lately it goes on for an hour or more. Non stop back arching screaming, we hug, rock, sing, divert, stroke, leave alone, and these things were all working until a few days ago, now nothing works. I cant feed him, settle him to sleep, put him in the highchair/pusher/carseat, put him down, pick him up, all of these things set off a tantie. and if I am holding him, I cant stand still, or sit down or he starts. I have never had this with the other 3. I know Kate you said it is a wonder week just after they turn one, but do they mention anger, endless anger??? How long will this go on?? Can I tough it out??? He woke at 5am this morning having a coughing fit. I bought him back to bed with me, and for 1/2 hr he just cuddled in, then it started, well its not long stopped, and then it was after he had a piece of toast in his hands, and I know it will start again soon when he decides he doesnt want any more breakfast. Sorry for a totally selfish post but ATM I am feeeling at my wits end, #4 and I dont have a bloody clue
