Ann,

Humprhey's tablets are little tiny pellets that are supposed to help with teething and wakefullness at night. I don't remember who told me about them but I was told I can get it at any pharmacy. It's over the counter but the pharmacist usually keeps them behind the counter. He highly recommended it as well. There is also another product for teething and such that I haven't tried but it's called Highlands that my pharmacist also recommended. Unfortunately, my pharmacist didn't have any in stock so I went do the road to another pharmacy and asked the pharmacist there and she said she used it for her kids and it worked wonderful. At this point, I'll try anything that's safe!!!

Anyway, I went to my ped today and she told me that they were eating alot during the day and that they shouldn't want more food at night. My kids eat anywhere from 6-8 ounces per feed every 3-4 hours plus cereal twice a day. She told me to feed them as much as possible and as often as possible during the day and that she allow them to sleep longer during the evening. She said there was no reason why they shouldn't be sleeping 12 hours a night. Can you even imagine!!! I'd be happy with 8 hours!!! She also suggested trying the Furber (sp?) method. She did it with her kids and it worked great. I have to look into getting his book. I think his name is Dr. Richard Furber. It's basically the CIO theory which I'm not too crazy about but I think I'm willing to try it.

Good luck and let me know what your ped says.
