This will have to be a quick post, with apologies for not blogging sooner.
We are still going through the mill with littl'un. Things are not as bad as in the previous blog, but he is still only sleeping fitfully and is awake from 4-5am onwards - which means we are not getting much sleep either. Daytimes are much calmer.
But we think we know the cause - teeth! At the end of week one, he lost his first baby tooth, and an adult tooth is coming through. He now has a second wobbler. Because he is so sensory seeking and is used to banging toys onto his teeth for input, we think he's distressed at the sensations he is now feeling.
A quick welcome to all the new readers who have found me as a result of the article about our son in the NDCS Families magazine. I don't often post about deafness, as autism appears to be his main problem ... besides, if he is deaf, why are we tiptoeing around the house in fear of waking him once asleep? LOL
