My DS is 7 months old. He used to wake for a feed maybe twice a night and go straight back to sleep afterwards, so it wasn't too bad. Now he only wakes once, about 4am, but he doesn't want a feed he's just awake for about 2 hours. My DH and i rock him, walk up and down with him, sing to him... none of it makes him fall asleep until he's absolutely exhausted but if we just leave him in his cot he starts to cry.
Has anyone else had a similar problem? I just want to know why he's so awake at this time and what i can do to help him back to sleep. I suspect i'm going to have to leave him to cry but does anyone have any other ideas?
