Not teething, not an ear infection, then what?!

Esther

My 11 month old daughter has been pulling her ears, pulling her hair, massaging her face and eyes with her thumb for almost a whole month now. This is better during the day, but in the evening and at night it’s an absolute nightmare. Nobody is getting any sleep at all.

She breastfeeds all night because I guess she’s trying to soothe herself with it, but eventually she just screams, pushes, etc it’s all incredibly intense.

I took her to the GP. There are no teeth coming right now and both her ears look fine.

So what else could it be???
