Baby very unsettled at night after hospital stay. Anyone experienced this?

My 6 month old baby girl was discharged from hospital a week ago after being admitted with severe dehydration and a urinary tract infection. She is now incredibly unsettled at night, wakening up every hour to hour and a half. Very difficult to get back to sleep again. Usually end up sticking a boob in her mouth as it's the only thing that seems to settle her!! Am absolutely shattered and just wondered if anyone else has been through something similar, or can give me some advice?!

My friend went through something very similar. I have to say it did take a while for her to settle down but she is fine again now with her sleeping. Hang in there must have been traumatic for the poor wee person and she will come through it. You are clearly a very loving and patient mum and just what she needs.

Any idea how long it took? Don't know how much longer I can handle this sleep deprivation!! She won't take a bottle either so it is only me just now who can look after her through the night.
