DS has started crying whenever we go near his bed, sit down in the rocking chair, ect. He refuses to nurse and tries to get away from me. Suggestions?

    are the lights on or off? if off, maybe put a night light on, or how about if you get a pop up book to read. and open it right away to catch his attention. my dd loves pop up books - she is 10 months

    I would try nursing in a different location before bedtime if you haven't already.  My dd went through the screaming when I went near the bed for a couple weeks.  I'm not sure if anything we did helped but I ended up just waiting her out. I would keep the lights low and try not to really play with her and eventually she would get tired enough to go to sleep.

    lights are off, but we have two nightlights in his room. he has even started screaming when we try to look at books now before bed.
