baby sleeping problems - please help! Page 5 of 7

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
Night 4: he woke frequently once again. Also talked some in his sleep. Some of this could have been my fault since I was awake for many hours during the night reading.

(That reminds me, do you have the time/energy to take my case? If so, I'll write it up and start a new thread on the forum.)

Also, am I giving you enough info? Would it help to have any pics/videos of him, or is there anything else I can do to make it easier for you?

Get hold of Nat-mur 1M. Let me you have it before using it.
 
brisbanehomoeopath last decade
Okay, I'll order it today.

Night 5: slept quietly and not much movement. Still woke frequently, although maybe a little less frequently?

Just out of curiosity, how can you tell when a remedy is the 'right' one? Nat Mur seems to act much the same as the Cham did (minus the aggravations). Is the correct remedy less likely to cause aggravations? I'm just trying to learn as much as possible throughout this process.

Night 6: very wakeful the first half of the night. I was barely conscious, and he kept trying to get out of bed. The second half of the night, he woke less frequently and slept quietly with no flailing.
 
Sarah3NN last decade
The 1M is here! What are your instructions?
Night 7: Slept well. He woke less often, and was generally quiet and still (he said his sister's name once, but that was it).
 
Sarah3NN last decade
Night 8: slept poorly. Woke frequently with lots of moving and talking, especially first half of the night.

Should I make a dosing bottle with the 1M? And should I toss out the 200c?
 
Sarah3NN last decade
Yes make up the 1M into a dosing bottle and give him a single dose right away.
 
brisbanehomoeopath last decade
Okay, thank you! I'm waiting for them to dissolve right now, then will give a dose and head to bed. I'll update again tomorrow.

Night 1after Nat Mur 1M: he had a very hard time getting to sleep (took well over an hour), this may have been because he took an extra ling nap yesterday. But then he slept for 3.5 hours straight. Then was waking very frequently for a bit (probably because I was reading in bed as I was awake for several hours in the middle of the night). Then he may have woken less often than normal, but I'm not sure. Throughout the night, he slept quietly and still.

I'll update again tomorrow.

Night 2: He woke frequently, but slept quietly and still. He was also unually grumpy and obstinate yesterday.

I'll update again tomorrow.
 
Sarah3NN last decade
Night 3: He had a bit of a hard time going to sleep again (but did have a longer nap than usual yesterday too). He woke frequently the first couple hours, but then slept for 4 hours straight! Then back to sleep again. He was generally quiet and still, although I did feel him roll over a couple times during the 4-hour block of sleep.

It seems like the 1M has taken us past the wobble effect!! Woohoo!

I'll update again tomorrow.

How will we know when/if we need to dose with the 1M again?

Night 4: He had a very hard time going to sleep again last night (it took over an hour). But then he slept well: woke less frequently than usual, quiet and still while asleep. I was awake for several hours during the night, but he slept fine.

His nap time has been creeping later and later; that combined with the fact that he is napping a little longer than usual is probably what is making is so hard to get to sleep at night. I'll make sure he gets his nap a bit earlier to see if that helps.

How will we know when/if we need to dose with the 1M again?
 
Sarah3NN last decade
Night 5: Still had a hard time going to sleep, despite a shorter, earlier nap. Woke frequently throughout the night, but did sleep quietly and fairly still.
 
Sarah3NN last decade
So is that an improvement now?
 
brisbanehomoeopath last decade
Night 6: went to sleep easily, but woke frequently throughout the night (every 2 hours or so) and had a moderate amount of talking/moving in his sleep. This is still better than a few months ago, when he was waking every 1-2 hours and flailing/talking LOTS in is sleep.
 
Sarah3NN last decade
I don't know...improvement just seems patchy, bit all over the place. Well wait a bit longer in case the remedy is still working.
 
brisbanehomoeopath last decade
Yeah, it definitely seem patchy. We've had a couple nights that were amazing since we did the 1M (I think one night he only woke 3 times, and that is amazing for him). Nights 5 and 6 haven't been so good, but we'll see how tonight goes.

As the potency increases, do you try to dose less often? Just trying to learn.
 
Sarah3NN last decade
Yes typically the higher potencies last much longer.
 
brisbanehomoeopath last decade
Oh, I also wanted to mention that his eczema is looking very good. Can barely tell it is there at all unless you feel it!
 
Sarah3NN last decade
Ok that is good. When did that start happening?
 
brisbanehomoeopath last decade
It has come and gone throughout the last few months. I'm not sure exactly when it got so good this time, probably less than a week ago. Sorry, I wasn't paying that much attention to it...
 
Sarah3NN last decade
Night 7: he slept very poorly. Waking about every hour. Yawn! Moving about and talking in his sleep during the first half of the night. Maybe more quiet and still during second half of the night, but I can't be sure as I was so tired by then.

So the last three night have gotten increasingly worse. Should I give him another dose today?
 
Sarah3NN last decade
Should I give him another dose of 1M before bed tonight? Sorry to be impatient, but last night was miserable and he'll be bed for the night in less than an hour.
 
Sarah3NN last decade
No something isn't right. Nat-mur is only a partial similar. Let me look again.
 
brisbanehomoeopath last decade
Ok the remedy you need to give him is Nux-vomica 200c. Give him one dose as you have with the other remedies.
 
brisbanehomoeopath last decade
I don't have nux v in 200c, only 30x. Should I give him the 30x while I wait for the 200c to arrive?
