As I have mentioned Ari has been having some form of night terrors for oh...I don't know about a month now...as I am slowly wearing thin on this (sad as it's only been a month) I am going to try to document the nights it happens to try to POSSIBLY determine cause or atleast have record so that I can possibly talk to the dr about it at some point...so...
From memory (last week and a half to two weeks):
- Thursday 10/1/09 screaming at 1am
- Friday 10/2/09 brief spell up from maybe 10-11pm
- Monday 10/5/09 2 times...first from 10:30pm and couldn't get her back down till 1am and then again at 5am down again by 6am
- Sunday 10/11/09 up at about 10pm back down close to 11pm
- Sunday 10/18/09 up at 11:45pm back down by 12:45am
Last week was a relatively quiet week considering Monday was HORRID, that was by far the worse episode thus far. Usually we have 2-3 times a week she wakes screaming, wanting to be held and it takes about 30-60minutes to calm her down enough to get her back to sleep without more screaming. Some have tossed out theories like she's hungry...but that theory has failed miserably in my book when after giving her a bottle at 1am she woke up at 5am screaming again and after eating dinner late tonight (6:15 instead of the usual 5:30) plus a bottle right before bed, she still woke up at 10 screaming...I am open to theories, thoughts, helps...anything at this point...until then...going to do a better job documenting to hopefully help possibly figure something out in the future.
A friend recommended I keep more detailed info on the days this occurs, such as foods we ate and napping schedules for the day to see if there is something that is tied in. So, since there is NO way to remember what happened food wise and nap wise the last several weeks, from here out...when I post the updates I will have all that info too...I hope.
