Baby Keeps Waking Up
I’m at my wits end. I swear to god, I’m going to lose it.
Baby is 9 months. Wakes up screaming and crying. Wants to be rocked back to sleep with bottle/binky. Which I do. When I set baby back down asleep (or awake), baby wakes up again screaming and crying to the point of coughing/vomiting.
Teething, but baby does this regardless if given pain killers and/or gel. Was doing this before teething too, just not as frequently.
Baby will do this for hours overnight. Letting baby cry gets nowhere. I’m miserable and I’m fed up. I don’t know what to do. I need sleep. I loathe rocking babies. Especially when I’m basically falling asleep too.
EDIT: I get help occasionally, but not much overnight. My SO works at a lot and a lot out of town. Daytime, baby is fine, but nighttime is the issue.
The only pain I can think of is teeth. Baby is quite happy and easy going during the day. No issues with naps or waking up like this. Not hot or cold overnight either.
