Hi

Thank you for your support. Hopefully they decrease soon because

after he is done screaming he stays up the rest of the night and

sleeps all morning. It is back to school and work tomorrow.

Can you tell me how you made your homemade epsom salt oil?

Thanks

Maybe they can echo their experiences.

touching best), and then on his stomach and temples. It cuts the

crying time down to about 15-20 minutes. Fortunately, as time went

on with the diet, we have very few night terrors, seizures, or

screaming episodes. Most of Dakota's night time crying seemed to be

gastric problems, and once the gas pains subsided, then he was ok.

Hopefully, this will suside in time for all of you as well.
