ok so she has 2 bad ear infections...isnt new for her but this time she is acting way weird...wont let me put her down and grizzley all the time....we cant put her in her bed without her screaming for ages...but then we put her in stroller and she falls asleep just like that...and if its at night then we wait an hour then put her into the cot...she will sleep all night....usually when she is sick i can still put her in her bed.....i start work next week so she starts daycare all day......im a bit worried now.......i know they wont let her scream for hours but she wont get better if she doesnt sleep and she is very determined not to go in cot.
any suggestions ...i know its only tuesday but i need her settled before then.oh and pain relief still wont calm her enough and today she was mega tired and still didnt work
DS goes through periods where he will ONLY have day sleeps in the buggy and not in his cot. No idea why that is, I just go with the flow and then a few days later he'll start settling in his cot again. Sorry, probably not much help at all!
If it is her ear laying flat can really hurt. I remember having this as a child it is awful. Maybe just let her sleep in the buggy to the ears clear up a bit then go back to using the bed.
Is she flat on her back in the stroller? If not, maybe she is more comfortable with her head abit higher. I have heard that if they have sore ears it can hurt them more when they laying down. Maybe try to elevate the cot on one side, put som phone books under the legs or a pillow under the mattress. Don't know if it would make a differens but could be worth a try.
Would they be able to put her to sleep in the stroller at daycare? My friend's daycare did that with her son when he wouldn't sleep in the cot.
no to stroller in daycare...the cot is already lifted and yes she lies flat in stroller.......this is why im at a loss. she goes to the specialist next tuesday to see about grommets......its just sooo random...woundering if its anything to do with wat my son had now...he was in hospital for a week......he was a bit like this the week before.
