18 month old sleep 😴

[Lupooo]

My son is 18 months old next week. At the moment he wakes 2-3 times a night for a breastfeed. This has been going on since just after Christmas. Before that it was once if any wakeups.
He is super clingy during the day and wide awake desperate for a feed at night.

Tonight I was going to attempt the Ferber method. Anyone else out there going through the same thing? I love breastfeeding so don't want to wean. Just need more sleep.

My friend made the suggestion today to cut out his day nap entirely! He sleeps 2-3 hours during his day nap most days.

Any help would be great.

You don't have to cut the nap entirely, you can cap it. 2-3 hours is a really long nap, my 10mo only gets 1.5hrs sleep a day over 2 naps (he's lower sleep needs, but still a lot younger than your DS).

Try cutting his nap for a couple of weeks, changes don't normally take effect overnight.
