last night when i went to bed at 2AM after talking to ppl on msn lol Kim woke up crying i thought she just needed a nappy Changed well Brett changed her and i got her some more milk as she only had 3-4 oz any way she drank that and we put her bk in her cot, she started to cry i mean cry so heard and loud never herd her cry like that anyway we left her for about 30-40 Min's and she was still crying as i picked her up and have her a another cuddle and put her back in her cot anyway she cry-ed evan more and more

at 4am she went to sleep for 10 Min's and the woke up grrrrr

by 7AM she when to sleep woo hoo i thought then i went to sleep before i know it the alarm was going off for me to get up as someone was coming round my house at 11AM so i got up and Kim woke up smiling lol so i got her up and dressed and feed then my Friend phoned saying she could not make it grrrr but her Lil girl was not was not well so i under stud anyway Kim did not evan had a sleep in the buggy she was just talking to herself self

but this means that Kim did not get that much sleep ether she went down at 9:45 and was up all that time, i don't know what could be the matter with her shes usually good its not the normal cry she dose it was meaning full and pain but the only 2 things i can think off is her exma and teething but shes had her exma for some time and her tooth never bothered her before so what could be the problem?

any ideas would not go a miss

thank you for listing

I found with Fred it was usually wind or he was over tired!  If it was wind I'd give him gripe water in with his last feed, if he was over tired I found that it would be easier to swaddle him(wrap him in a blanket) and then rock him to sleep.  It means you not doing anything for a while while lo sleeps but it usually gives them a bit of a kip!

If it's teething it have you tried dentinox teething gel?  I have found that works best with mine, or she could be coming down with a cold, in which case I use medised as it helps with their breathing!

Hope some of this helps you and she sleeps better

Emma, maybe she is coming down with a bug, or could she be teething. Did you try teething gel? Was she drawing her knees up? It could have been a poorly tummy, try gripe wayter if you think it could be that. Erm prune/orange juice for constipation. Calpol for fever. How she been tonight honey?

Maybe it was just one of those nights xxxxxxxxxxx

so fair so good she has not wook up yeh woo hoo, i have not tryed that gel vix was going on about but thinking of getting some, she did not put her knees up to her chest last night but saying that she did not do a poo all day yesterday, i have tryed medised and she is sick every time i give that to her so i have stoped giving it to her now i odnt whant to make her ill,

there has been some bugs going around but we have hardly seen anyone or been out but that dont mean a thing these days shes has her first tooth im wondering if another one came out last night? as shes not one for pain my lil angel lol just like me, she likes colpol to much so i try not to give it to her to offten im thinking for trying nurofen for babys (has anyone gave there los that if so haw well did it work?) as i have not tryed that one just yet lol

but like i said so fair so good think i might go to bed and get some sleep just incase she dose wake up agen lol god i hope not i dont want another night like last night lol

atm im useing colgel for her gums that is giving her some relife but not alot i dont think and she is not interseted in teething rings dont know why she keeps chukking them on the flow never mind

I use the calgel too, not sure if it does a lot but Ols likes the taste of it lol.

I haven't tried nurofen but I know Dizie uses it for Ella.

The other thing I use for teething is powders that you can get from the chemist.  They aren't the easiest things to administer but they are great.  They are herbal and are meant to help with constipation and the runs caused by teething too. 

If she cut another tooth last night that's probably what was wrong and you should hopefully get a better night tonight.  Sleep well.

lol sam kim loves it to she opens her mouth thinking it is food and she gets anoyed with me that i put it onher gums lol

i think i might buy some of that powder too as i have had heard good things about them.

i hope so sami have not heard anything but when she was having her milk she fell asleep thats not like her to do that lol so it may be good news lol

i have not checked if she has cut another tooth but i think i might tomorow just to see if she has or not lol

thanks sam
