Hi all,Very very frustrated ATM with our 3 month old.We had to stop his gaviscon 10 days ago as it was just making him severely constipated and introducing a different problem entirely, he was prescribed gaviscon at about 9 weeks for possible reflux. I think he was just having a bad bout of colic.Anyway 3 days after stopping gaviscon he was the happiest baby ever, barely cried, poos nice and soft and he was very content.However the past week he has been such hard work, he has suddenly developed this behaviour where unless you are holding him he screams to be picked up, he seems to be equally happy if you lay him flat or upright so I don't feel like it's reflux. He used to go down in his cot fine at night but now as soon as you put him down he absolutely screams, takes about 6 times picking him up and putting him down til he gives up and goes to sleep.He is being insanely demanding to the point where we have to leave him cry for a few minutes at a time as its physically impossible to constantly have hold of him, he is worse for it now than he was as a newborn.He sleeps mostly okay for his age, up twice a night and 4 to 5 30 min naps during day.He is wetting plenty of nappies and doesn't have a fever, he is drinking less per feed ATM but I've read that's normal at his age as he has had growth spurts.Any advice? Is it developmental? It seems relentless atm. via /r/Parenting https://ift.tt/3mbIGtD
