For the last 2 weeks my 9 month old son has been waking up cryinig, I put him down in his cot and an hour later he starts to cry, I try everything to sooth him (teething gel, changing his nappy ect) and he still screams the place down and when he finaly does calm down he's wide awake. So I've had hardly any sleep since it started, has someone please got some advice to get him out of this I'm at my wits end and I don't see my health visiter until Thursday. Thanks xx

CARABINT!
you need to keep night-time activities as quiet and low-key as possible, so there's nothing to take his interest. no lights (if possible.. or keep it low), no sounds, little contact (after doing the nappy if necessary and teething gel assuming he's teething) and no rewards. does he have a dummy? I'd say give him a dummy. it's not the end of the world and you could take it away in a couple of months.
