Hi, please help me 😩!
My baby boy is 7 months old, and he wakes every 2 hours! (I’m slowing stopping Breastfeeding)
A normal night for us currently looks like this..
7pm/7.30pm bath time, book, bottle (but only taking 5oz). I put him down awake in cot with MyHummy (used to work wonders) and a night night light, he fussed about until he gets comfortable. Usually sound by 8:30pmish.
He wakes 10.30, I try to leaving him if it’s just loud grunting but sometimes he cries and it’s awful I can’t leave him to cry, so I lean over give him a cosy sing a lullaby then leave the room, he will moan and drift off.
He wakes again about 11.30, so I assume he’s hungry I make him a bottle again he only takes 4/5oz. I put him down again awake and he will moan until he falls asleep. He wakes again around 2/3am I feed him (myself) and he cries anytime I try to put him down in his cot so we end up co-sleeping he wakes again around 5.30/6.30 ready for the day but I can usually feed him back to sleep and cost him in my bed until 8am.... am I doing something wrong? What can I do differently? I’m afraid to even cough in bed incase it wakes him, he used to sleep upto 5hours a night xx
