[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 282354, member: 84"] Jane I just saw this and haven't read thru the other replies........... This is new behavior? Any new foods she's added to his diet? Something may not be agreeing with him. Process of elimination could possibly weed it out. Is she letting him get over tired? This is a common thing with new young parents and not easy to get the hang of telling when the baby is growing tired. Luckily both my girls have had me there to point it out to them. easy child just went thru this with Brandon. We now know when his eyes get a little red ring to them....he needs a nap asap regardless of schedule. Maybe he is not ready for sleep when she's attempting to put him down. Sleep needs change as an infant ages and develops. easy child and Nichole discovered this when their kids were ready to drop the morning nap for just an afternoon nap.....and finally believed me once they were ready to pull out their hair. Crying it out is ok, if these other things are not a factor. But there is a method to crying it out. Let the baby cry for 15 mins. Go in and give comfort, settle baby until no crying and calm, put baby down again. This usually needs repeated several times before baby drifts off. But enough of this technique and baby will start to go to sleep normal again. Hugs [/QUOTE]
