My DS is 8m and EBF - ive been unsuccessfully trying to wean him on to formula for 6 months. He has allergies so is on prescribed milk which he hates.
He settles him self off to sleep for all naps and bed time but wakes up 2-3 hours into the night and then every 1-2 hours and won’t fall back asleep in the cot himself. Always in my arms. From 3/4am onwards it becomes that frequent hom waking up that I just keep hold of him until 6am.
he had reflux as a baby as a result of allergies so I’ve cut a lot of foods out of my diet.
his sleep got worse last week with two new teeth and a reaction but still hasn’t recovered.
theres the occasional week of good sleep where he only wakes twice before 5am :/ I genuinely don’t know what else to do.
he doesn’t drink bottles, an open cup is a ball ache. I’ve tried sippy cups and every flow teat and various bottles.
i need some helpppppp. I’m going insane with his allergies and the Bf nvm the lack of sleep. I don’t know why he won’t fo back to sleep when he wakes in the night. I resettle every other feed and he’s deffo not hungry all of the time either. Makes no difference if kg husband resettles either.
he hated a dummy and had TT revision at 3 weeks old.
advice/tips welcome! X
