I'm at a loss....not sure what to think....frustrated
last night was another bad night. She went to bed at 7:15 and I went in at 8:15, 9:30 to rock her. At 1:45am she was up crying, I gave her motrin, baby orajel, more gas drops and rocked her back to sleep. She was fine until 8:30 this am.
I'm at a complete loss as to WHY she's being like this.
She hardly ever finishes her 8 oz bottle anymore....sometimes she leaves as much as 4 oz over before becoming so fidgety to be put down to go to sleep for her naps.
My only guess is that she's constipated. No fever, not pulling at her ears, eating pretty good at meal time.
I'm just so frustrated over it.

It sounds like teething or an ear infection to me. Alex doesn't exhibit many teething symptoms, other than restless and fidgety sleep AND a decrease in appetite. But, those are also the two symptoms she exhibits when she has an ear infection... otherwise, it could be that she's about to reach a milestone. Either way, I'd take her to the pediatrician to rule out an ear infection

Bryan was having a tough time sleeping lately and I found it to be associated with missing his afternoon nap. If he missed this nap he woke up, if not he sleeps thru.

her naps are fine.....
so she can be like this BEFORE reaching a milestone?? She's been talking more and pointing and I'm guessing walking isn't too far off.
Could it be seperation anxiety??? even at night?

Oh yes, Alex always has trouble sleeping for a few weeks before she reaches a big milestone. But in your case, because she isn't drinking as much, it leads me to believe there's something physical going on as well, either teething or an ear infection...

I wouldn't worry too much about the milk if she's having wet diapers. Nate cut back on his milk when he started eating more table food. I tried spacing his meals and the milk more and he would drink 1-2 oz more.
