Laurie, I just spotted your new ticker... congrats!!! I know that Bethany picked up on things a lot earlier than even I did (I didn't find out I was pg until 7wks along and in hindsight suddenly her behaviour leading up to then made a whole lot more sense!). Bedtimes and etc. were doubly difficult and in the end I realised it was cuz she knew something was up with me. Are you finding you're tired/nauseous yet? Cuz that could be affecting your interactions with Jackson, and I know for Bethany she was hyper-sensitive about it. In time she calmed down but it did take a little while. No big suggestions other than eliminating every option (including a few extra cuddles) before you put him to bed so that you know it really is just a big fuss rather than something being wrong. Then just being consistent with what you always do. That's just my two cents anyway :P Hope you're keeping well xx

ETA - lol just realised this thread was older than I thought... hope it's sorted itself out for you already :)

Yup, it's normal. It's a phase. We've been through it, come out of it and may well be heading back into it .....]]> Thu, 25 Feb 2010 22:52:02 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=31199&PID=950329&title=crankybloodypants#950329 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=31199&PID=950189&title=crankybloodypants#950189 Author: Bizzy

Laurie is he over this now, Finley has done this last 3 nights running.

In the end me just standing next to him while he drops off seems to solve it - I think he is teething but he's the same asks to go to bed, says night night daddy, happily gets in bed, just loses it after that - odd]]> Thu, 25 Feb 2010 19:24:20 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=31199&PID=950052&title=crankybloodypants#950052 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=31199&PID=915682&title=crankybloodypants#915682 Author: Daizy

We had exactly the same problem last week, suddenly she seemed terrified of going to bed and would scream for hours, both nap and night time, before she would fall asleep. We went through all the same possible problems too, teething, scared of the dark...

We eventually tried the pamol, thinking maybe there is something wrong we wern't picking up on and the screaming didn't last quite as long.

We cancelled out plans for camping and this last weekend we made a real effort to get some sort of solid routine back again and it seemed to have done the trick. After 1 week of screaming, (which left her horrible grumpy during the day) she is back to her normal self. No idea what the problem was

Heres hoping it doesn't take him too long and he gets back to his normal self. Hopefully its just something in the air ]]> Thu, 28 Jan 2010 22:49:16 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=31199&PID=915682&title=crankybloodypants#915682 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=31199&PID=915307&title=crankybloodypants#915307 Author: FionaO

Have you had his ears checked? we've had a couple of weird days/nights and turns out that both ears were red and inflamed.

I spent time googling (as you do) and it could also be a bit of extra seperation anxiety at this age.

We gave him some pamol before bed last night, and the crying was reduced, so maybe something is going on. Am thinking teeth, or the latest contagious virus or something... He's also not eating very much so it might all be interlinked.

He wants to go to bed, it's only when we put him there that hell breaks loose!]]> Thu, 28 Jan 2010 18:10:12 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=31199&PID=915152&title=crankybloodypants#915152 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=31199&PID=913430&title=crankybloodypants#913430 Author: JessDub

Snap! DS is the same at the mo and similar age. I can't attribute it to anything except as you're guessing, an awareness of life (parties and treats - ha!) going on after he goes to bed.

Could be the weather too? My friend's 18 month old son is going thru same thing at the mo.

Another thing is that DS has just started having tantrums if he doesn't get my 100% attention when he wants it. A taste of things to come methinks!]]> Wed, 27 Jan 2010 17:18:53 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=31199&PID=913430&title=crankybloodypants#913430 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=31199&PID=913396&title=crankybloodypants#913396 Author: KiwiL

Jeepers, Jackson has turned into a devil child in the last few days. Particularly at night time.

He has always gone down to bed with no fuss. Put him in the cot, lights off, see you later. The last few nights he has screamed the place down, and last night it was hard enough to vomit. Apparently he also cried going down for his day nap at daycare too.

Last weekend we took him on a road trip. He went to "bed" in the car three night in a row due to us travelling long distances.

Could this have stuffed up his routine enough to make him all grumpy?

When do they get their back molars? Maybe it's teething that is causing this?

DH also wonders if he is suddenly scared of the dark, and perhaps a night light would help? But it's not pitch black in his room anyway.

Or maybe he's just old enough to know that life goes on without him when he's in bed? The thing is he tells us he wants to go nun-nyes but then cries when we leave the room.

Probably noone could answer, but anyone have any ideas or experiences?]]> Wed, 27 Jan 2010 17:01:06 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=31199&PID=913396&title=crankybloodypants#913396
