Hi Fran, sorry I've missed your last few posts. I think I posted similarly about Scout when he learned to roll and move about his crib. He would be utterly wedged with his head against the slats and wake up crying. I had to move him - only for it to happen again. I do think it is just a phase. I also have to stop myself from jumping out of bed the minute he cries. Sometimes it's *dream crying* and he simply stops and resumes sleeping. I've learned that even if he is wedged in a corner, if he can breathe (which has always been the case) I leave him alone. If he's uncomfortable, he'll move. So sometimes he sleeps in a corner - so what? Other times, he keeps crying and on occasion I still bring him into bed with me until he goes back to sleep. My advice is do what you feel is best and know that he will be okay.
Oh no! I hope he gets through this phase real fast! Maybe a possibly growth spurt??
ReplyDeleteHope you can get some sleep in between!
Oh dear. Hopefully it is just a phase, perhaps a growth spurt or a new tooth.
ReplyDeleteGood luck!
Oh no! One step forward, two steps back... Hang in there!
