Arlo is getting so restless and upset lately around 5:30pm and keeps going to sleep at 6pm when his bed time is usually 7:30pm in which he sleeps for 11 hours, but now because of this 6pm sleep he’s up through the night, could it be teething related or a spurt or a regression? Clueless but there’s no way I can keep him awake he’s even refusing his tea screaming falling asleep sat in his high chair 🤷🏼♀️

McKenzies bedtime was between 7 and 7:30 but then started getting really tired around 5 and 5:30 and I put him to bed at 5 one night and he's gone to bed at that time near enough every night now, only started doing this about a month ago thou! xxx

They do have the 8 month sleep regression aswell mind! I remember when kenzie was 8 months I was tearing my hair out for a few days as he was up like every 2/3 hours in the night, xxx

@mckenziesmummy wow what an angel I bet it’s lovely having the evening to yourself 😂 it wouldn’t be too bad if he would sleep through but the early night seems to mess up his pattern and he ends up awake at like 1, 3 and 6 it’s so draining just as I’ve cracked a routine something else seems to happen 🙈 xxx

@mckenziesmummy and I don’t know if it has anything to do with it but since this has been happening he’s been ridiculously clingy with me, he’s usually all for his Dad but past few days he screams and throws a fit if I put him down or his Dad holds him he screams mama and puts his arms out for me it’s cute but I don’t get a minute 😨 xxx

@shannonn95, haha! That always happens don't it! Set a routine and something is bound to go the opposite way hah! Aweh he's brilliant! Because I know by 6 the very latest he's fasto in bed and I can have a bath food and relax! And watch my soaps! He's such a dream!
He isn't teething at all is he? Xxx

@mckenziesmummy ahh it sounds like heaven I miss my baths!! Now I have to dive in the shower after begging my fella and get everything done in about 3 minutes before Arlo’s in the bathroom 😂 he’s cut one tooth and it seems a top and bottom are trying to cut also xxx
Lauren·
@shannonn95, Aweh really! Aweh hopefully it'll all fall back into place again soon! And maybe that's why he's like the way he is, maybe his little tooty pegs are hurting? Xxx

@mckenziesmummy yeah probably! Is there any good teething stuff I can get other than bonjela? It only seems to work for like a minute before he’s upset again xxx
Lauren·
@shannonn95, I always use bonjela and nurofen it works a treat for McKenzie after 20 minutes he's fasto! It lasts 8 hours so no need to keep giving it to him after 4 hours xxx
Lauren·
Nurofen is a life saver 🙈🙈
They do say that Aston and parsons or whatever it is supposed me be good, it's like this powdered stuff I think xxx

It couldn't be colic could it? Lukas was like for awhile and we had no clue why he kept screaming around 5pm, So my sis in-law went to the chemist for us and asked them about it and the women said it sounded like colic so she told her to get some gripe water and he's fine ever since 🤷🏼♀️

@thiacat I’ve no idea he’s suffered with reflux for a long time but since being weaned it seems to have really settled, I will try him with a bit of gripe water tomorrow though if he starts off again it won’t do no harm trying x
