Hello!
Looking for some advice with my son who's almost 8 months old. Here's the lo-down... He has reflux and so has milk prescribed. He had colic as a young baby but grew out of that. He has plenty of stimulation, toys, trips out, friends round etc etc. He eats three meals a day and enjoys it. He sleeps through the night 8/9 til about 7.
So this last two weeks he has been a real devil, crying, not letting me put him down, wingey all the time, no longer enjoys the bath which he used to - he now screams! Constantly has these tantrum episodes of screaming which I can't figure what's up! It's got to the stage where I'm now worried something is actually wrong? GP and health visitor are dismissive and say it's his reflux. But he's not sick anymore as such. Just small bits.
Thing is, he will then have a patch of being this lovely, funny little boy and being crazy and giggling. So I just don't know how to deal with the screaming fits?! He constantly bangs his head too. His dad walked out when he was three months old so I'm on my own too.
(By the way, he is almost 8 months but crawling amazing, standing and saying mom mom)
Hope someone can give me some advice! Thanks Rhi! (rhirhibumblebee) xxx
