Sleep regression - advice please!

[meandmyroo]

My 5 month old was a brilliant sleeper from around 9 weeks however over the last few weeks she has regressed and is now waking at least twice a night. She doesn't cry when she wakes, she's just wide awake and gurgling. Once i've fed her she goes back to sleep v easily.

I've heard that this is common around this age especially with bf babies (which she is) but I'm anxious that i'm encouraging her to wake by feeding her.

Will she return to her previous sleep pattern i.e. sleeping through or do i need to "re-train" her?

Any tips / advice would be gratefully received.

P.S. I have left her gurgling to see if she'll go back to sleep herself but it doesn't work. Eventually she cries.

My other concern is that whereas before (when she was sleeping through) she'd be ravenous in the morning, she isn't in any rush for a feed first thing these days as she's fed during the night.
