Midnight growing pains

For the past few nights, Titus has woken up & started screaming somewhere between 11pm & 1am. This hasn't been typical 'scared' screaming, or even 'sick' screaming though, this has been 'someone is murdering the poor child' screaming. Thankfully, I'm a night person & I've still been up every time the midnight screaming has begun.

He was sick when this first started, so I assumed screaming in the middle of the night is something sick kids do. But now he's all better & he still is doing his midnight screaming act. So today I finally asked Rebecca what's going on.

It turns out, the little guy is waking up in the middle of the night with gas so bad that it makes his tummy hurt and makes him scream bloody murder. Some of this may be my fault, as apparently I shouldn't give him the following things:
  1. Ice cream
  2. Lots of juice
  3. Onion rings
  4. Ice cream cake
I think tomorrow I'll go to the store & get some Lactaid and Beano for his Christmas stocking :)
