Grandson not sleeping all night since birth

Posted by Toastie on October 07, 2001 at 11:34:21:

My grandson is almost a yr. old and hasn't started sleeping all night yet. My daughter moved him out of her bedroom about 6 weeks ago and still no changes. He never goes into a deep sleep even during his 1 sometimes 2 naps during the day. He is very healthy weigh wise. He has been dealing with a ear infection that he has been taking medicine for. The Doctor has him on a maintenance of amoxicillian once a day for 10 days. He has been teething since he was 4 months old and has 6 teeth so far. My daughter has been breast feeding him since birth. At roughly 8 months he gets mostly formula with breast feeding at night. My daughter is just worn out. This is her 2nd baby. Her 1st son is 12 yrs. old and doesn't live with her, so she doesn't have very much experience with correcting this sleeping problem. Thank you for any future advice.
