Guest guest Posted March 25, 2008 Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 I'm sorry you're tired. I've been through nights like that totally unrelated to the helmet (usually sick or teething) and I just want to scream. Unless there's something really wrong (fever or pain), I'm all for the " let them cry it out " theory. Just put her in her crib and leave the room. Of course, if she's still crying really hard after 10 or 15 minutes (however long you can last), then go back in. Sometimes if we're just in the room, he's content. We don't have to be holding or rocking him. He plays in his crib while my husband and I nap in the rocking chair or on the floor. Eventually he goes back to sleep on his own. Fortunately, the helmet itself hasn't effected his sleep at all, but again, I know what it feels like when it's 4:00 a.m. and all you want to do is go back to sleep. Hang in there! I hope it gets better for you!

Guest guest Posted March 25, 2008 Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 I was tired at 1st well who am I kidding I still am but I think its more my age lol! Anyways what I found that has really helped me the past wks is a baby sleeping bag I got a fairly light one & its made my nights basically good no more waking to either cover or remove some because he seems uncomfy, no more kicking off the blankets. I thought he might even be to big for one but I found a great one that is so long. Its become a part of our good night ritual. Best of all I bet we have 6 goodnights out of 7. > > > > what do you do when its 2:00 am or 3:00 am and you child wakes up > > because eather there hot , cold or because of helmet and then when > > there up thay think its play time and does not want to lay down > untill > > 4:30 or 5:00 am ,I want to know if there are any other mothers out > > there that as tired as i am or was as tired as i am when there child > or > > children frist got there helmets/ band > > > > > > cubie momma to allysann age 8 months has plagio & brachy has been in > > helmet 2week/4days > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
