I usually lay her down and just stay with her. Even if she is crying I feel better knowing I am there for her even if I don't know what to do to make it stop. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-your-go-to-when-your-lo-just-wont-go-to-sleep#post-1990827 Thu, 18 Dec 2014 21:15:35 +0000 Ash 1990827@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I pull ds around in the wagon... In the house. Knocks him right out without having to go outside. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-your-go-to-when-your-lo-just-wont-go-to-sleep#post-1990824 Thu, 18 Dec 2014 21:13:43 +0000 Mrs. Champagne 1990824@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Tylenol for pain and then just a slow standing rock. This only happens when he is teething. Otherwise we just put him on his crib. Rocking usually makes him laugh! Lol. Good luck! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-your-go-to-when-your-lo-just-wont-go-to-sleep#post-1990816 Thu, 18 Dec 2014 21:11:38 +0000 Foodnerd81 1990816@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nursing usually works, even if she's not hungry, it helps reset her I think. We lay in the bed in her nursery in the dark with the sound machine on until she is calm, then put her in the crib and more often than not, she scooches around and goes to sleep. </p> <p>If that doesn't work, we will bring her to a dimly lit living room or turn the lights on low in her room and read books or do something quiet for a little while then try again. </p> <p>And of course, if I know she's teething, I usually give her the ibuprofin as soon as I walk into the room! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-your-go-to-when-your-lo-just-wont-go-to-sleep#post-1990751 Thu, 18 Dec 2014 20:49:02 +0000 sorrycharlie 1990751@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Umm... Being totally honest, medicine. Lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-your-go-to-when-your-lo-just-wont-go-to-sleep#post-1990748 Thu, 18 Dec 2014 20:46:25 +0000 Charm54 1990748@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A good old bottle knocks her out every time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-your-go-to-when-your-lo-just-wont-go-to-sleep#post-1990746 Thu, 18 Dec 2014 20:45:18 +0000 ladybee 1990746@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@littlejoy: I know, right?! We probably won't be off them for another month but he's only getting 1-2 a day. And dang it, I'm tired. :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-your-go-to-when-your-lo-just-wont-go-to-sleep#post-1990713 Thu, 18 Dec 2014 20:33:52 +0000 littlejoy 1990713@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@ladybee: No bottles after 14 months!?!? Oh goodness, I was planning to milk them for a bit longer. It's like a tranquilizer at nap time! ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-your-go-to-when-your-lo-just-wont-go-to-sleep#post-1990711 Thu, 18 Dec 2014 20:33:23 +0000 mrbee 1990711@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We used to take the kids out on a late night stroller ride... the combination of bumpy streets and cold air would knock the kids out! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-your-go-to-when-your-lo-just-wont-go-to-sleep#post-1990708 Thu, 18 Dec 2014 20:32:08 +0000 ladybee 1990708@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A bottle. Our pediatrician has made it very clear that at 14 months he should be off bottles but sometimes it's all about survival. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-your-go-to-when-your-lo-just-wont-go-to-sleep#post-1990698 Thu, 18 Dec 2014 20:27:48 +0000 Mrs. Lion 1990698@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Car ride. Always the car ride. Until this went on for a month...then the pediatrician told us to try benadryl because he was not sleeping because he was so overtired. Once he got caught back up he went back to normal. </p> <p>But if its just a one time thing? Car ride. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-your-go-to-when-your-lo-just-wont-go-to-sleep#post-1990692 Thu, 18 Dec 2014 20:25:23 +0000 littlejoy 1990692@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Danizaur: LOL! We usually just bring her out to sit with us for a bit. A little reset. She will usually just fall asleep, and we transfer to bed a bit later. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-your-go-to-when-your-lo-just-wont-go-to-sleep#post-1990671 Thu, 18 Dec 2014 20:15:23 +0000 Mamasig 1990671@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Car ride! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-your-go-to-when-your-lo-just-wont-go-to-sleep#post-1990670 Thu, 18 Dec 2014 20:14:37 +0000 Applesandbananas 1990670@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Danizaur: we have put him in the car and driven around in desperate situations. On a tough but not desperate night, being in the room with him but not engaging with him helps. He wants my presence, but if I look at him or talk to him, that riles him up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-your-go-to-when-your-lo-just-wont-go-to-sleep#post-1990658 Thu, 18 Dec 2014 20:09:34 +0000 artsyfartsy 1990658@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>T is fighting us to death whenever we try and rock him to sleep tonight. He doesn't want to be alone and doesn't want to be held either. He's screaming bloody murder. He's teething and overtired but usually isn't this bad. Ugh. </p> <p>What's your trick?</p> <p>PS. Someone hacked my account yesterday and made a post about me having baby fever. That definitely wasn't me!! </p>
