4 month DS is waking almost every hour after midnight.
It is killing me. Sat here in tears of exhaustion.
He is EBF and won't take a bottle. He goes down around 8pm then wakes at 12am, 2am, 3am, 4am...every hour until 7am.
This is not his usual pattern - he previously did 8pm until 6am with one or two feeds.
When he wakes at night I can only get him back to sleep by feeding him / rocking him.
He sleeps in his cotbed in our room. He's not too hot or cold. Our room is dark. He has a white noise thing that we play when he goes down to sleep.
I'm praying this is the four month regression or a growth spurt. I'm battling PND so finding things tough enough as it is without chronic sleep deprivation on top. I can't catch up on sleep during the day as I have toddler DD to look after.
I'm sure he's getting to the lighter part of his sleep cycle, waking and not being able to settle himself again. But this doesn't help solve the problem
How do I get through this? Will it ever end? Is there anything I can do? Any advice or hand holding would be gratefully received.
