I am wondering if this is possible a reaction to dairy in her diet ...can anyone tell me if that is possible or if this sounds more like something related to teething or something else?
Dd has been waking more often at night and is harder to settle. She used to settle pretty quickly nursing. Now it seems like she just thrashes around and cries and arches her back and tries to get away. She will eventually settle down and it doesn't take more than a few minutes still but she acts uncomfortable or something, yet still half asleep when this happens. When I bring her to bed with me, she seems to be doing this every 45 minutes or hour. Sometimes we'll get a few hours stretch without any wakings but then she'll cry out and I'll try to snuggle her close and nurse her but I'll have to flip her over to my other side before she'll settle down. Sometimes it's like a change in position helps. I can't figure out why this is happening. She is getting a couple of molars. But we've also started trying some dairy. I am trying to figure out if it might be related to the dairy in her diet, because it doesnt' seem to happen every night and we've only had sporadic dairy, not every day. Because it's not every night, it makes me wonder what is going on...
She hasn't had any other reactions to the dairy "yet" like eczema. Although she seems to "burp" more than before but I think she just swallows it instead of spitting up like she did when she was smaller. :sick
