DS was a perfect sleeper up until 5.5 months and is just getting better now (Hes nearly 13 months). He were up sometimes 6 times a night.

It sucks doesnt it?

Yep...sorry to say its normal:yes:

It is very painful for some bubbas teeth to come thru.

DS had just had his molars come thru and that looked extremely painful.

Bonjela should help

Have you tried giving her some Panadol before bed?

i feel so soorry for you, i went through this and dd was waking up screaming, i had no idea what was wrong with her!!!
i took her to the hospital one night coz she just wouldnt calm down.

it does pass but it will take a few months, i found that if i left her in the cot and just said 'sshhh' mummys here, time for sleep now and then i just patted her bum sort of in a hearbeat motion and after bout 5 she would calm down and after bout 20 min she would nod off.
hope that helps.:fingerscrossed:

I know how you feel DS has been like this all his life. I think that we got about 4-5 hours sleep last night.

I hope that she grows out of it soon for you.

I'm sorry to say this Mandy but my DD use to be the perfect sleeper until she turned 6 months old. :gloomy:

I have forgotten how long it has taken us to get her to sleep through the night..(on some nights, being said she STILL wakes up a bit now but is quickly resettled..sometimes) and she is 10months old.

All i can say is I feel your pain..:hugs:

(oh and somenights i do give DD panadol before bed, i know atm she is cutting another tooth.)
