Baby Wakes Every Hour During the Night--HELP 47

 

The ABC Homeopathy Forum

1 Year Old Baby wakes every hour HELP!!

Hi my son has woke every hour since birth. Sleep training never worked and we have tried nat phos and nux vomica with no results. We have recently used Serenite Jr. with very tiny results. What are we doing wrong? He is still breastfed and is 1 year old. We are at wits end and cannot take it anymore! PLEASE HELP!!!

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
I'd also like to add that my son is not vaccinated and has done every medical test and is as healthy as one could be.

1.whether he prefers warm surroundings ie whether he likes to be covered or he prefers cold surroundings and open air.

2.whether he has a mild disposition or an irritable disposition. How is his attitude towards his friends and relatives?

3.What other physical problems, if any does he have.

4.At what time he feels better and at what time does he feel worse like in the morning, evening, late night etc.

5.What do you think is the causative factor for starting his problems.

6.How is his thirst for cold drinks, hot drinks and water?

7.How is the bowel movement? Normal, constipated or loose.

8.Whether the child prefers to move around or prefers to keep still.

1. He sweats at night so we keep him uncovered.
2. Mild disposition, loves others playing with him unless his mother or I am around.
3. No other physical problems
4. Is very happy in the mornings and is very fussy in afternoon
5. Idk what causes his problems because we have tried everything under the sun and nothing has worked even a little.
6. Like cold water and drinks water after meals and in between feedings. But not excessive amounts
7. Normal Bowel movements
8. Prefers to always be moving around, gets into everything

Please give him three doses of Pulsatilla 200 as follows and see how that affects in next 15 days (only 3 doses in 15 days).

day 1 morning
1st dose

day 1 evening
2nd dose

day 2 morning
3rd dose

One dose means
If the medicine is in pills form 2 pills. Don't touch pills with hand. Use cap of bottle to take pills.
If the medicine is in liquid dilution form, 2 drops in some 10 ml water. Sip up slowly.

Please follow homeo restrictions like don't eat or drink anything within 30 minutes before or after taking medicine.

What is it that Pulsatilla will do? Does it take 15 days until it gets into the system? Thanks for your response
 
jbinder last decade
Breast fed babies don't get mush water - they get thirsty. Your child is very very thirsty. Please also start giving the baby some water to drink - through a spoon or bottle. he is very very thirsty and unable to tell you.

Okay we have medicine on order and we have began giving him alot more water tonight. With giving the water what will the medicine do to help him sleep longer? Thanks again
 
jbinder last decade
You should report what happens in 15 days. The remedy is suggested on the basis of symptoms and should improve his sleep.
 
kadwa last decade
I apologize for asking so many followups but I just want my baby to be safe. Through reading on this forum t seems like alot of people have had bad experiences with Pulsatilla. I know this is a very potent drug and needs to be taken carefully. Is there anything else you would recommend before trying such a potent drug as this one? I am just afraid of what it could do to him. Thanks and again I apologize for so many questions
 
jbinder last decade
Remedies are based on symptoms-and prescribed when
there is enough matches. Remedies when above 12x potency
have nothing of the substance in them - it is a molecular
imprint on the water that the pills were coated with. You
are asking the wrong question. Kadwa is prescribing what
he feels is right after asking you questions about your child.
One remedy is not more 'POTENT' than another remedy-
You give the remedy that matches the symptoms. It is
not like someone said have some antibiotics and you
would prefer starting with Vitamin C instead.

They are safe, and non toxic and do not stay in the system.
The pulsatilla is for the overall symptoms of your child,
and the object of treatment with this, is to stimulate
the childs own vital force to a higher level where anything
that is not healthy is removed by the child's own vital
force to put him back in balance.

It takes a week or two to observe how this is going and determines
the next step. The non sleep pattern is a chronic thing
and chronic things do not just usually disappear in a day or
two. Things like a cold, etc remedies can, if right make
things leave in hours.

see drdooley.net pdf and learn the basics of the system
of homeopathy that you are using.

Great response and I thank you so much for your time. I understand things much clearer now! Thanks!!!!
 
jbinder last decade
We have given him his first two doses. Finishing up the last dose now. Last night was as terrible as the rest. Hope the next 14 days will improve. Thanks!!!!!!
 
jbinder last decade
Well three days in and nights have gotten worse and days as well. He is waking all night after 15-20 minutes, and will not sleep longer than two 20 minute naps in a day. Losing our minds. Help
 
jbinder last decade
Do you ever just sit and watch him after he falls asleep?

And notice what seems to wake him up? Whether he has
sleep apnea or a clogged nose or makes faces due
to stomach gas? There has to be some reason. If you
had a nose problem you would wake up and then want
to be upright to breath better. Gas problems can do this also.

My feeling is pain has to be doing this- and it would be
ear, nose or stomach.

We have had ear and nose checked and all is good as of late. His nose is clear because we can't hear him wheezing at night. He does not snore. We give him milacon every single night and if he does have gas problems we don't know what to give him for his stomach because nothing has worked. We have watched him numerous times and each time he wakes it is the same thing. He goes from dead asleep to wide awake sitting up as if he were never asleep. The previous things of nux vomica and nag phos did not help with stomach. We have tried numerous things from our homeopathic store for stomach and none improved sleep. One other thing is that he likes sleeping with knees tucked to stomach but about 5 minutes before he wakes up everytime he stretches out flat. This happens everytime like clock work. Wha you think?
 
jbinder last decade
I think, let Kadwa read this and see what he says about
it.
 
simone717 last decade
How do I get Kadwa to read this?
 
jbinder last decade
Whether he sleeps in 2nd Worst: Fetal Position as appearing in the following link...

kadwa last decade
Thank you for the info. We have tried since birth to get him on his back and he wakes up instantly everytime. We then tried on his side and because he twitches and moves so much he won't stay on his side. Therefore that is why we resorted to his stomach. We are out of ideas and he is now refusing naps because he is so tired and disgruntled. Thanks for Help!
 
jbinder last decade
Please give him a single dose of Medorrhinum 1M and see how that affects in next one month.
 
kadwa last decade
Also not a doctor but- from experience can say that - he may be thirsty - try giving him more water to drink.
 
Hair Loss last decade
quench his thirst gently with a dropper or a small sippy cup.
