What an Awful Night!

Over the past few days I've had to fight BB to sleep, it's been horrible. I put him down at 6.30/7 depending on when he's tired and he'll fuss and moan for an hour or so. Last night I put him down at seven because he was visibly tired... at 12am I was still fighting him. It was ridiculous.
I swaddled him.
Cuddled him
Fed him
Massaged him
Rocked him
Patted him
Changed him

And eventually I took him in bed with me and after 10 minutes of tossing and turning he settled and slept. Until 3am when he had his feed and then started fussing and took a while to go back to sleep again! Why did it have to happen on a night when DB was working until 5am?

He just cried and cried no matter what I did! I noticed when I changed his bum that his poo was like maltesers and rolled out of his nappy :s Gaviscon has been making him so constipated but if I took him off it he just vomits constantly. So I went out and bought SMA Staydown so I can take him off of Gaviscon and he's actually been much better than usual. (And has done an enormous poo hehe)

I've kept him awake a fair bit today and although he fussed for about ten minutes, he's gone down (thank god!)

Hopefully the SMA will do well for him and he's stopped this awful night crying!
