Restless 11 month baby

Hello
My 11 month old baby has always been a restless sleeper. When he was born he slept but woke up to any noise he was always a light sleeper I tried white noise but it was not a 100% success but better. For few months he has been really restless while falling asleep he will wake up frequently at night. He usually wakes up after half hour and then around 12am and then 5 am he won't take bottle or even water he cries for 10 mins and then falls asleep again . He usually takes pacifier. Last week or so he refuses to take his bottle he only wants solid he is a decent eater he is willing to try everything if he likes it he will eat it all with No fuss. I've tried glands teething medicine and chamomilia 30 but I feel like it's no help. He has 4 teeth two upper and two bottom he doesn't drool like he did even his tooth came in. He was born 6 weeks early he had trouble maintaining his temp so he was is nicu for 17 days he's a happy baby over all he crawls stands up holding things he's a light sleeper during day naps as well takes me forever to put him to sleep
He has been rubbing his eyes a lot maybe cuz he's over tired and rubbing has caused small red white bumps under his eyes
He gets constipated easily ever since he was born so him not drinking his milk has made him constipated for few days I use miralax or suppository to release him.
Please help me why he's so restless always maybe his other issues will get better with better sleep?
Thanks in advance

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
Can you describe his behavior when he is awake? Can you list down some adjectives to describe his positive and negative shades?

Is he quiet, loving and affectionate? Or is he cranky, stubborn or obstinate?

What are his other general symptoms?

How is his thirst? Which part of the body does he sweat most? What is the smell of his sweat like?

After his day naps he's usually happy he will just wake up and stand in his crib
At night he cries if I offer him water or milk he refuses it he will take pacifier after resisting it a few times he will cry for few mins then go back to sleep
He is happy baby generally he is always happy clapping plays nicely with his toys he loves attention social baby
He does sometimes hit his head when he's cranky
He has very little thirst level I offer water in so many duff cups but he drinks little
He usually doesn't sweat rarely if he does its at the back if his head

His remedy is PULSATILLA 30C one dose a day for three days.

Give him the doses, one hour before he sleeps at night in empty stomach.

One dose would be 3 drops in some 10 ml of water or 2 pellets dissolved in the same quantity of water.

If 30C doesn't bring about a good response in a week, try 200C just one dose.

Hello
So I tried the 30 potency and it seemed to help for few days then he went back to his old symptoms
This week I tried 200 potency and he still doesn't sleep through the night
He gets restless waling his arms back and forth. He kicks himself towards top of his bed using his legs of course. He seems to have headache sometimes he hits his head.
Should I wait few more days for the 200 potency to work it's course?
 
Am123 9 years ago
Yes, please wait for some days and then we can look for a suitable remedy if he didn't seem to respond to 200C.

So it has been about 6 days into his dosage and I don't see any difference in him. He still wakes up at night restless he will move around, whale his arms and move his legs a lot, pushes his head back all the way, pushes his body towards top of his pillow. He does this even if he is in my lap, my bed, or his crib. He is crawling for 3 months now but not walking, he stands for few seconds then drops to the floor. He can walk hiding things. He's eating solids.
I like to add he's had ear infections on and off for two months now I took him to doctor few days ago he has prescribed another antibiotic to him it's his third antibiotic for his ear in 3.5 months. He still touches his ear. He has four teeth at bottom four at top. He doesn't drool. He just got over a viral infection. He's a happy, loud energytic baby and he is 13.5 months now. Sorry for rambling on im just mentioning whatever I feel might help you help me.
Thanks in advance :)

Please don't give him any more doses of PULSATILLA.

Instead, give him CHAMOMILLA 200C before he sleeps at night at least one hour after the feed.

Repeat the dose for next day if he doesn't respond.

Give only two doses maximum and then wait for a few days to know if the remedy actually produced a response. If yes, you can repeat the dose whenever this symptom relapses.

Otherwise, come back to me here for an alternative remedy.

I tired it no change he's still the same I even gave it a week and tried another dose I felt no diff
He has been sleeping good for his naps in the afternoon but at night he's restless. Wants to be help even if I put him with me he wants to be on top of me or hold my arm or hair. He moves his head side to side a lot. He kickes his legs a lot too. He has been crawling for over 4 months with no sings of walking. He has 8 teeth four top 4 bottom ones. He takes a long time to fall asleep at night due to restless.
What should I do?
 
Am123 9 years ago
Try CHAMOMILLA 30C one dose for three successive nights just before he sleeps.

Let me know after a week. If it doesn't seem to have an effect with this potency, we will go higher with three successive doses.

I've tried chamomile 30x before I asked for help and it didn't work. Is 30c different then 30x?
He has started to walk a week ago and he has restless legs too now he moves a lot while falling asleep even if I hold him he moves his legs more then usual. Almost like he's kicking his legs in mid air and whaling his arms he still wakes up I think it's more for me to comfort him or come on our bed I move him back to the crib once he's deep sleep. He usually wakes up from his crip 1-2 after he's asleep and then around 3-4 am . After I put him to sleep in his crib he wakes up after an hour or two and I will put him on my bed he is restless for about 5-10 mins then after he's deep sleep I move him back to his crib then he wakes up again 3-4 am looking for our bed.

30X is lower potency than 30C.

Try 30C or 200C a single dose at night just before he sleeps.
 
rishimba 9 years ago
I tried 200c as well no luck
I tried it one time with no luck and then I tried again after two weeks with no luck
 
Am123 9 years ago
