Hi, looking for some perspective here on what to do. My 7 month old DS still wakes at least once, sometimes twice (either 1ish and 5ish, or if just once usually at 3ish). I am BF and up to now have just given feed, he falls back asleep easily within about 20 mins so it feels a quick up and down.
But I've been feeling I "should" stop this so we can both get a better sleep and in long run don't want to keep overnight feeds. So last 2 nights tried other strategies- giving water, rocking, patting, lullabies etc. It was HELL! First night took an hour, last night 2 hours and then he was only asleep 10 mins to wake all over again.
So my question is would you persevere to try and help him settle without feed or keep feeding and he will grow out of it?
I am happy to keep feeding night, more feel I should try stop!
