Sleep regression?

My nearly 17 week old son has been a bit unsettled this past week. He doesn't cry really, just fidgets so much, snuffles about in his sleep, has really bad gas from both ends (exclusively breastfed) he's a happy boy but his nap/sleep has been a bit erratic since last week.

In the day he's chomping lots like he's also teething but my girls did this and never cut a tooth until 10-12m.

I remember them having unsettled periods with sleep and both never slept the whole night until around 13months ish (both breastfed to 13 and 15m) but just wondered if they're a anything I can try..

He do bath time, massage etc to relax them. And little fella does have bad gas and only poos like once a week.. He's happy with it most of the time but then gets frustrated. Understandable. My first daughter was also a once a week pooer.. Normal in breastfed babies apparently but just wondered if this was the disruption of sleep or is it just his age?

Its like you just described my son!! I have been told that they go through a regression at this point. I have started cosleeping again which is helping and also teething granules.

Good luck

Thanks. We do a mix of cosleeping and he has his cot too. He just doesn't seem to be himself lately. and it's tiring especially when I have to be up and full of energy at 6am with my 3.5, and 2 yo! Thanks.. You too :)
