My 3 month old DD has started screaming to the point where she can't catch her breath at bedtime. It started 3 nights ago. Our bedtime routine has not changed (I feed her, dress her, sing to her, and then H rocks her, puts her down, and stays with her until she falls asleep). Lately after I leave the room, she has started screaming so hard that she starts sweating and is out of breath. She won't calm down for H and only stops once I take her.
Did anyone else go through this? She only does it at bedtime. She does get progressively more fussy when she's tired throughout the day.

DD had a screamfest recently and we think it was due to gas. Gas drops usually work, as well as diligent burping. It seems like "gas" is almost always the reason for crying!
I am really happy she didn't do it tonight. We put her down about 8:00. She is fine and happy until then. I'm not sure what the issue has been, but I hope it was a temporary thing.
