Hi all,

My son pranav is 9 months old. we live in california. He is a very active kid. He wants to play all the time. Now he has started to walk. But his sleeping pattern is really bad. He sleeps only for an hour in the afternoons and that too with a disturbed sleep.
In the night he sleeps at 8.00 and gets up at 1.30 a.m and cries a lot. Our doctor has advised us not to feed him. We tried for 15 days of not lifting him but his face becomes red and cries like anything.He slleps in the crib. I am giving him gerber foods and rice and dal.Please help me. manju replied. hi Durga

My 8 month old baby also have the same problem.But she sleeps well if she
sleeps with me even though she wakes up twice at night.So try sleeping with the baby.

thanks and regards

u can try taking him to bed with u.what i do is i sleep with her and when she wakes up i just let her cry for some time .after 10 mins she will come to me and lie on me and sleep.i tried rocking too but when ever she wakes up she wanted me to rock.
if u let him cry for two days he will sleep thru the whole night.its tough but once u do it the baby will there after sleep really well at night.take care and bye durga.
