Sleep Disorder in Baby? Spasm? Rls? Leg Cramps, Can’t sleep

Written by admin on February 22, 2009 – 8:02 am -

My son is 8 months old now, and has been a terrible sleeper since he was born, seemed very uncomfortable in his own body, he was hospitalized when he was a few weeks old and they figured out he had GERD reflux which has been treated with LOSEC and he seems better in that regard, but the sleeping habits are worse in the last few weeks.
Alot of tests were done a few months ago and all were negative, we are waiting to go to a sleep clinic so they can do a sleep study on him,

thought I would take a shot and see if anyone out there has any ideas as to what could help if maybe this reminds them of their child.

These are the things we have tried and what we do each and every night before he goes to sleep for anywhere from 1-3 hours. He will wake up like a newborn still everyone 2-3 hours to eat, sometimes wakes right up from his legs like the video (this is 4am) sometimes can get back to sleep with minor massaging.

1. Swaddle him to keep him somewhat still
2. Heating pads under and on top of his legs
3. Advil on really bad nights (doesnt seem to help at all)
4. Deep Massage or patting
5. Warm Bath

During the day he seems happy, his hands and feet are always in constant motion, and he always seems very tense, like his muscles are flexed all over but it doesn’t seem to bother him as bad as when he is trying to sleep,

nap time is the same- pretty hard. My husband and I are usually sweating by the time he’s asleep, and if we stop massaging his legs/feet before they have stopped moving 100% you can almost see it move up his whole body, his toe wiggles then his ankle, then his knee, to his bum and if we don’t touch him, he will sit right up (like the video)

it is getting harder because he is getting bigger and stronger himself so harder to swaddle and massage all while keeping him rocking.

Anyone have any ideas to try, or a guess as to what it looks like, please send me a message. Thank you!
