my Son will be 1 on saturday and up until christmas and teething he slept through the night brilliantly. Since xmas he hasnt :(.
His pattern has altered alot and was getting up 3 or four times a night but lately that has improved but desperate to get him sleeping through. We have had to put my 13yr old son in with my 14 and 9 yr old girls to sleep as LO is keeping him awake and he has adhd PTSD and ODD so he needs his sleep.
the pattern the last 2 weeks is: 9oz cows milk at 7am when wakes, juice through the day when thirsty (about4 times) nap at 11.30 with 9oz cows milk wakes up at about 1-1.30 and then goes to bed with oz cows milk at 8pm IF he wakes up at 9.30 and has another bottle 9/10 times he will sleep til 7am, IF he misses that 9.30pm bottle he wakes up at between 2.30 and 4.40 for a bottle of juice. (until a week ago he has been having 2 naps a day of an hour each, now he tends to make it 1 2hr nap,)
i am contemplating withholding night time feeds and letting him cry himself back to sleep. Never had this with older 3 kids they all slept through by 12 weeks. Im sooo tired. hubby give me weekends off but still taking its toll on me.
ANy advice?
ps: he is on cows milk as its only milk he keeps down (he had severe Reflux) he is definately healthy and well fed he eats a huge varied diet has done since 3 months old and he is huge for his age (but not fat) he is developmentally ahead in a lot of ways and taking his first steps so no health concerns. I think he may just be a light sleeper :( xx
