My little one Christian who is 6 months this week, has started a very frustrating and concerning whine. He has been doing this non stop all day for the last week. We try to keep him stimulated and occupied for most of the day with activities like toys, walker, being outside, strolls, singing etc
We have even tried to ignore it.
We thought it might be teething, but he is lacking other obvious signs such as constant dribbling, rosy cheeks, vomiting. He does not have a temperature or bowel trouble and he is eating well, he is on 3 meals aday and having 4 bottles.
Any ideas as to what it might be that is troubling him.
Secondly something that might be related but has been happening for a while longer, well actually since birth. He has not slept though the night yet, most often he will wake up once or twice a night demanding milk, sometimes 3-4 times but he will only finish 1-2 bottles a night.
We have been advised to try stop his milk at night as it has become a routine for him and that is why he keeps on waking up. If this is so how do we best do this.
Any help and advice will be greatly appreciated.
