kuraiza - My DH actually isn't against giving her a dummy, but wants to wait and see if it really is necessary. At the moment we find most unsettled periods are during the day, which is easier to cope with than at night. But we are both willing and ready to use dummies if we need them! And thanks for the advice on unsettled babies. Somehow my DH discovered the first method the other night and it worked so well for us. I need to try the wide-eyed quiet baby one though, cos a lot of the time she'll be wide awake during the day.. show no signs of tired.. but suddenly become a screaming baby! I think she wants to be awake and then just suddenly is too over-tired!
