Does anyone have any advice about head banging? My 16 month GS has started banging his head during the night when he wakes and screaming loudly. He lives with his parents and it is driving them demented with worry as he has bruises on his forehead from the repeated banging. I mind him two days a week and he DOES head bang when he's told not to do something that's dangerous or when something is taken off him but it's easy to pick him up and distract him during the daytime. At night he bangs on the cot so hard they don't know what to do. HV says could be a phase but how long could this last? My two never head banged so I don't know what else to advise. Any suggestions or comments would be appreciated. Thank you,
Julie
To go through chemo therapy or choose not to?
