DS is my first, exclusively BF until 6 months, took to solids well but still feeds lots from me.
Got a good routine, will fall asleep on his own but still wakes up A LOT at night. What am I doing wrong?! It seems to be getting worse and worse.
When he was younger he'd sleep from say, 7 - 1ish, then would wake up a further 2-3 times after that. Now, he wakes up a couple of times before midnight as well.
Every sleep regression/growth spurt hits him really badly. I understand that babies have good and bad phases but he's NEVER had a 'good' phase. A good night for me is if I can get 4 hours sleep in a row, but that hasn't happened for a LOOOONG time.
I don't rush to him when he cries. I try and see if he'll re settle himself. Sometimes he'll re settle with a bit of shush/pat but more often he'll just get more and more cross.
It seems every other baby sleeps through, at least some of the time. Has anyone else had a baby like this?! Any advice for a very tired mummy who feels like she's losing the plot?
