My son will not stop screaming, what is the cause?

Question

There is no sign of pain abd no history of sickness.I am currently deployed and have been since 6mo old. My son is very very dependent on mommy. She cannot put him down or be away for any length of time. His screaming sounds more than anger and almost rage.?????????

Answer 1

You haven't given us enough info. How old is this child? Has he always been this way? Is there are history of illness?
Children, like adults are born with a certain temperament. Some are laid back and flexible, some are uptight and need everything "just so".
I'm a firm believer in a schedule. I've had my son on one since birth. Now that he is a toddler, I think it is even more important. Children like routine. Does she have him on a schedule? When I started taking my son to daycare, I modified his schedule at home to match his schedule at school. Here is how it goes:
Up and get dressed
8-9 breakfast
9-10 play, dance, Sesame street
10-10:30 or 11 lunch
10:30-2:30 nap
2:30-3 snack
3-4 play on the playground or inside with toys
4-5 play on the playground or color or work puzzles
5-5:30 light snack
5:30-6 play at home
6-7 dinner
7 play with books and quieter toys, lights get dimmer, TV off soft music
7:20 bath time (earlier if he asks)
light snack after bath (my son kept waking up in the middle of the night hungry so I added this about 6 months ago)
8 down for the night

Good luck and best wishes.

Answer 2

I agree that it may desire to be a hallucination. that is been shown that schizophrenia is often led to via a gluten intolerance/celiac disease. In people who won't be able to tolerate gluten, the gliadin element of the gluten will act like an opioid on the strategies, which will reason altered states (in simple terms like an unlawful drug) and hallucinations. until now going to a psychiatrist, i might propose you to have your son examined for celiac disease. and because those exams are not all that precise, i might attempt a gluten loose food plan regardless of attempt consequences.

Answer 3

you need to take him to every doctor in the phone book until someone figures this out. Your son would not be screaming just to hear himself scream. Keep looking for a solution until you find one that works.

Answer 4

been there done that
my hubby was gone from 3mos to 6 mos and he came home and our daughter was scared of him
then when it happend again and she was 18 mos old she was mad at him for leaving

it's gonna be like that for a while but he'll get over it by the time he's 3 (at least my daughter did) she's used to deployments now and ok with it

make sure to give mommy a little time off even if your son is screaming the whole time this will help him get used to you
spend lots of time with him and be nice to him and mommy this is a hard adjustment for everybody

your wife needs to just let your son cry sometimes this will help him get over his seperation anxiety he has with her

if he's screaming dont give up just keep holding him and being nice and comforting


ok listen that advice when you come home but for now since i just re-read your question tell her it's probably gas and to try milicon drops or pickle juice or water with dill
and if she cant find anything that works then just let him cry babies need to learn to comfort themselves sometimes
how old is your son???

Answer 5

What he is doing is temper tantrum not getting what he wants as he cannot express himself.
This is part of normal child development
You need to understand why he is doing it and the change of his routine may be the course.

Answer 6

are you sure he doesn't have an ear infection? those can be hard to diagnose without a trip to the doctor.
