Grunting when put down for bed
Grunting when put down for bed
Dd will be almost asleep or asleep before bed time and I put her in her rock n play or crib and she is immediately wide eyed and grunting and moving her legs all around. She sleeps perfectly in my arms and this only starts around 6 pm but will go until the morning. I've maybe gotten 3 hours sleep in 2 days because she does this all night. I've tried doing a bath before bed, gas drops, gripe water, a little heated rice pack on her belly and nothing works except holding her. This is a recent thing. She used to go down easily and sleep for at least 5 hours. I'm frustrated and sleep deprived. Any advice or thoughts?

I'm taking dd to the doctor this afternoon she was crying and grunting so hard last night and this morning. It makes me so sad and it's been a rough couple of days for baby and momma! She's on enfamil newborn now so I'm wondering if they will have me change her formula or what!

We've swaddled since day 1! It's the only way she'll sleep. Otherwise she wacks herself in the face!

Mine just started this so we started using the swaddle me swaddles.. He was so mad about it the first night but since then I swaddle him at night and nap time and he sleeps so much better!!! I wait till he's out then put him in his rock and play and keep my hands on his side for warmth so if he starts to stir he feels my warmth and thinks we're still snuggling. Then after maybe 1.5-2 min I walk away and he's been doing sooo much better!

Mine has done this since birth lol we now bedshare because 8 weeks of no sleep plus an unruly 2 year old takes it toll

Oh man. It's good to know I'm not alone! My first dd was always difficult like this so we just held her all the time but with this one I can't do that because I need sleep to handle the 2 year old all day! Hopefully it's just a phase. Mine has been in bed for less than an hour and I've already been in there at least 5 times.

My dd is doing the same thing... I spent all day holding her today I'm exhausted she is finally just now sleeping on her own for the past hour ?!
