Last night Jack started whimpering around 3:30. I went in after a little while and sang to him and patted his back, then Chris went in for a while and rocked him. Still whimpering. I went in again rocked him and eventually decided to change his diaper, which was not the problem it turned out, and just made him more upset. I got him settled again but he was still whimpering, and around 5:15 I finally decided we should give him some Tylenol. After that I settled him into his crib and sat on the floor next to him and held his hand and sang “Hush Little Baby” 50 trillion times and he finally drifted off a little before 6.
No idea what that was about! He does wake up occasionally these days, but usually he puts himself back to sleep, or it only takes a few minutes of soothing from one of us. We have never given him medicine for teething before.. who knows if that was the problem. Maybe his stomach hurt? Maybe he was just upset? Poor little guy.
Yawn.. tired today!
