Wednesday night's big sleep was a once-only performance, it seems... back into the 4-hour sleep pattern from before. Oh well. I'll keep wishing!
Hey Jess, we've been having a similar situation here. Maybe not so much crying or screaming, coz Aadi doesn't really do that much, but he's been unsettled nonetheless. He just doesn't sleep enough during the day, and then he gets unsettled and whingy, falls asleep for 5 minutes at a time and then wakes up crying, and I cave in and give too many comfort feeds, leading to chucking. Very messy. He's a happy chucker anyway, but it's still SO annoying having to mop up even more vomit. Occasionally he will self-settle, but only occasionally... I still put him in the sling, give him my little finger to suck on, and rock him to sleep nearly every day. He just will not go to sleep unless he's in my arms. I would try taking him out in the pram more often if it wasn't so darn cold and miserable here. He does sleep well in the pram.
Sometimes he'll have one 2-hour nap, but most days it's just short cat-naps, never more than 2 hours total. Then, because he's so over-tired, when he wakes for a feed at night he falls asleep on the boob before burping, leading to lower wind at 4am. He's impossible to wake up! He always suffers for it, and so do we. Mind you, this usually happens on the weekend when DP wants a sleep-in... he's pretending he's ok about it, but he's still cranky regardless.
I'm still feeding on demand, and that's usually every 3 hours or so during the day, and maybe every 4 hours at night. It's pretty much a routine, but I still take each day as it comes too. I'm trying to instigate a routine of daytime sleeps, but it will take time.
I think I'd be wanting a go on that trampoline too. Have a bounce for me, will you??

Mecil - hope everything goes well with the surgeon... that's a bit scary, isn't it?
Abb - would you reccommend seeing a chiro? I know they've helped me in the past, so I'm thinking of taking Aadi to see if there's something that could help with the wind & chucking bizness...
