Having trouble with hyper 10 month old!
Can anyone help me please. I am currently looking after my ten month old grandson and have been since she was born when her mother is at work. I have had her several time at nights as well. She used to go to sleep quite easily but has now developed this habit that after having her supper (Hero special night time food ) and then her bath with Lavender and lavender lotion rub down afterwards of not wanting to go to sleep. Instead she starts cruising rapidly around her cot while at the same time shouting and talking loudly (baby talk) shaking her head from side to side quite violently and then holding her breath and then laughing at her own antics. Is this behaviour normal for a ten month old or do my daughter and I have something to worry about. During the day she is fine - she has two - one hour naps a day - plays on the floor etc. It is only at night that she becomes a little nightmare as even though I put her in her cot at 8 she is stll active at 11 or 12. In the end I have to rock her to sleep in her pram!! And then she wakes up constantly in the night although she does go straight back to sleep when told - go sleep,
