My LB is 9 months. Never slept well. Longest is 4 hours in a row. He has silent reflux and CMPA. For the past week or so he's been sleeping 7-11 then wakes up crying and won't go back to sleep until 2/3am!!! I've given him a bottle, calpol, reflux Meds. I rocked him to sleep where he falls asleep. I put him down and he cries. He keeps tossing and turning in his cot like he can't get comfortable. I'm soooo posted tired I just don't know what to do???

Poor you - I have 3 children and have been through some exhausting phases with them (particularly my middle one). There's no easy solution, you just have to get through it. It will pass. In the meantime make life as easy as you can for yourself (e.g. Get a cleaner if you can afford it). Can a friend stay over for a night now and again to rock the baby sometimes whilst you sleep?

Hang on in there - it will get better eventually Flowers

I assume you are using cows milk free formula?

What's his feeding like, in terms of milk and solids. Is he drinking much in the day?

How about daytime sleep?

I've just posted a similar post about my DS also 9 months constantly waking. I haven't got any advice but just wanted to send you hugs. I know it feels awful, I've been crying all day, but you're not alone Xx
