She's usually ready to cuddle & allow me to comfort her after that.<br /><br />Habg in there...it's beginning of the rough stuff but it isn't all bad all the time.

Calliope went through this at around age 1. it went away. so i don't think it will stay this hard. though it will get hard again later. <br /><br />2. when Calliope wakes up like that, i've found it works best if i offer comfort, and she then refuses, to leave. it makes us both super frustrated if i stay. i tell her "i'll come back and check on you in a few minutes." she doesn't usually get upset, but if she's already screaming, well, she keeps screaming. and i come back when she's quiet and it's like she's a different girl. sometimes i just think babies wake up grouchy and need some time to pull it together. just like grown ups. i'm grateful i don't need to nap every day because i always feel bad afterwards!Abbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14992218915423095158noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2688810272914203813.post-27624898623759716882013-04-07T14:09:03.001-07:002013-04-07T14:09:03.001-07:00Could he have been in pain from teething?
