Magic trick??

Hi mammies! My sister gave birth to my lil niece Lucy almost 3 weeks ago She was good for the first few days, feeding every four hours and sleeping in between. Then we brought her for her BCG and we were out nearly 6 hours that day, and since then she's all over the place! Then the poor little thing got thrush in her mouth 2 days later and is on mycostatin drops for that but she's now waking every 1-2 hours, taking a small amount of bottle and sleeping again, we cannot get her back into a normal routine. Oh and she spends most of the night awake and has both me and my sis worn out! Does anyone have any suggestions what to try to get her back into routine?! I know she's only little but holy god!!

Hi Aug08 i just wanted to bump this up for you. Im not sure what to say to you, its probably the thrush keeping her awake. Could you get her the cure of the thrush?? Im sure anything is worth a try.. I hope someone can help you. All the best

Thanks mummy06 i hope so! She's so lovely ya couldnt be mad but still for her own good it'd be nice if she slept well!

I dont have any advice for yah just wanted to bump it up. You should try posting this on Mums&kids

Sounds like she has got into the habit of snacking. You will prob have to stretch out the times between feeds gradually by 30 mins each day to get her back to every 4 hours. Once they are in a routine its great but the smallest thing can get them knocked out of whack! Good Luck
