Crazy Awake Baby

in Babies: 0 - 3 Months

So I need some advice. My baby is very alert about 45 minutes after most feedings. Naps pretty good throughout day without any fussiness. But after our 10 pm feeding she is wild til 1am. She cries, but does not appear in pain. We try swaddles (which she likes during the day), refuses a pacifier, we try swing and million other things. Last night it was so bad I changed her diaper, offered her the breast (refused) and layed her in her crib and she screamed for ten minutes. I picked her up. She was so tired and finally fell asleep. I hate letting her cry it out like that.

This goes on every night from 10pm til 1am. I cut out all caffiene starting this morning. Now drinking decaf. Anyone else dealing with this?

    She's kinda young for CIO.  This may just be her rhythm for now.  She's only 2 weeks old.  You aren't doing anything wrong she's just still really new.

    Yes she just has her wakeful fussy period during that time.  That is ok.  My LO had this period from 10-1pm as well when they were that age.  I slowly adjusted her schedule so now that awake period is between 8-10 and now beacuse she is older she does not fuss so it is a fun awake period.  And she has sleeps 7-9 hours a night.  

    However, I never let my kid scream for even one minute when she was that young (I don't now, but she is no longer very fussy).  She may just want to be snuggled, so snuggle her- they are not little for long.
