Then I brought him back 10 minutes later of course. My 11 week old has progressivley gotten more wakeful at night over the past 2 weeks. He had begun to sleep a 5 hour stretch (bliss!) and then all of a sudden he's back to waking every 2 hours. But, last night was worse. He went to sleep at 9, got up at 11:30, 1:30, 2:30, and 3:30. At that point I was at a loss. He wasn't crying or fussing at all. He was kicking and waving his arms around. I LOVE when he does that at 3PM, but 3AM is a different story. He sleeps with us but in his arm's reach co-sleeper. The past couple of weeks he has been waking and lifting his feet in the air, grunting, and dropping them hard onto his matress. It shakes the big bed! I'm trying my best to keep things as comfy for dh as I can. He is working outside the home at a new job so that I can be home with the boy. Anyway, I got up finally around 4 and put him in his crib in the room next to our out of desperation. I lay there and listened as he goofed around. Then I went and got him and nursed him to sleep. Usually when he wakes at night I nurse him and he falls asleep and I place him back in his side car and he's out. But, now I'm wondering if he isn't fussy is it advisable to nurse him just because. Sometimes I pick him up and he passes out right away.
Anyway, I don't know what his deal is. He's become much stronger just this week it seems. Maybe he just wants to play? It also seems like he has gas with his grunting and leg dropping. He's fussier during the day and he is a super fart machine sometimes! I also wondered if he is teething since he grabs his ears and shakes his head also during the night.
I wish he could talk! If I knew the source of his night wakings I could help him! Anyone speak baby?
