Progress, if you don't count the sleep

Megan was awake for 5.5 hours last night.  She was just starting to settle back down when Sam fell out of bed and started screaming.  And sadly she still woke up early so she didn't get much sleep at all.  She had a good morning despite her tiredness.  She got a 2 hour nap today, which is good.

Will and I have been going over everything trying to figure out anything that might be causing her to wake up. She is currently taking her probiotic at dinner so we will be changing it to breakfast and hopefully that will help.

Despite the continuing sleep issues we have been noticing improvements in other areas.  She is able to control behaviors that she wasn't before.  Yesterday she was poking herself repeatedly and wouldn't stop and I told her that I was going to put her down for nap if she poked herself again.  She stopped immediately and didn't poke herself again for 30 minutes, at least.  What started the poking was me asking if she was ready for nap - clearly she wasn't.  :-)  That is just one example of many instances over the past 2-3 days.

The other thing that has been going on for the past 3-4 days is that when we ask Megan a question her immediate reaction is to move her mouth.  She is moving her mouth like she is talking, though at the moment sound is not coming out.  It is so fun to watch her try to respond to us.  She has been a little more verbal the past two days, saying words that she had started and then stopped saying.

NOTES: b-1 IC, 1.5ml oil, l-1 IC, d-1 IC; no dd or detox bath or probiotic
