So, it turns out that Jack is much more like his mum than we thought!
Jack went into his usual 7pm crying session and continued to cry and cry, despite us both trying to calm him down. We tried all of our normal tricks, but he wasn’t having any of it. Bathing him used to be a good ‘un, but he’s become immune to that recently.
By chance, we found something that he finds… soothing!?!
Claire needed to do some hoovering around upstairs and as soon as Claire came anywhere near Jack’s room, he stopped crying and started to look at me through his teary eyes, as I was hanging over the edge of the cot trying to calm him down.
To test the theory again (in the name of science), we brought the vacuum cleaner into Jack’s room and he simply stopped – switched it off again, and he started to cry. Back on, and he stopped. Strange.
