Glue ear

So i took my little boy for a hearing test this morning and it turns out he has hearing loss caused by glue ear, he’s got another hearing test in a few months and if he still can’t hear properly by then they want to look at him using hearing aids or getting grommets fitted. I’m pretty sure he’s had hearing loss for a few months already so I’m pretty certain that he’s still going to have it in another few months so I’m trying to decide which option seems better, if you’ve experienced this with your little one at a similar age which did you go for and what were the pros/cons? x

Baby sleeps with his head turned mostly to one side ?

Little one is 4 months and I’ve noticed he has a favourite side to turn his head and it’s very slightly flatter than the other side due to him always facing that way, even when he’s awake he faces one way. He can turn his head both ways but even when carrying him he always looks left. I’ve even tried switching his position in the crib but he still prefers one side. and When he’s sleeping I gently move his head to the centre so he’s looking straight but he moves it back to one side after a while. He does suck his thumb on one hand so I guess it could be to do with that? I just don’t want him to have a wonky head or face bless him, has anyone had this ?
I might go to the GP

18 months and started asking up during the night..

My son is 18 months coming up this month and he’s been in a bit of a routine for a while now. Still takes time going to sleep on a night etc but he’s started waking up crying 1/2 times but screaming.. if I bring him into bed he goes back to sleep so he can’t be up and he’s done with his sleep? But can’t also leave him screaming at 2am or 4am what could it be? He’s not hungry as if he’s hungry it’s a different cry I know it and he wouldn’t go back to sleep at all

How do you babies sleep?

Is this normal for a 6.5 month old.

Asleep for 7:00-8:00
Awake at 11:00 (Dummy and Rocked)
Awake at 2:00 for a Bottle.
Awake at 5:30.

He can also sometimes awake at 3 for Dummy and Rocked.

I feel like I am getting no quality sleep!
