7 Month Old - Night Wakes& Unhappy!

So as the title says, I have a 7 month old and heโ€™s been waking up more throughout the night for a couple of weeks. Along with waking up earlier ๐Ÿ˜ฎโ€๐Ÿ’จ And has been miserable for even longer!

Heโ€™s our second so weโ€™re aware of sleep regressions/development, leaps, wake windows, sleep training, teething etc. But I canโ€™t remember my first ever being this unhappy - I suppose my first mistake here is comparing my second to my first ๐Ÿ™ˆ

Has anyone else found this with their second? We try our best to go by his wake windows and plan our days around both our kidโ€™s naps but itโ€™s not always possible to get it bang on. Heโ€™s also pulling to stand now and cruising. Heโ€™s been army crawling for ages but I reckon heโ€™s a couple of days off from crawling properly as heโ€™s already done a few tentative steps on his hands and knees.

I know like all things this will pass, but Iโ€™m just wondering if Iโ€™m missing anything, or could do more to try and entertain my LO and encourage less night wakes and a later wake up time? I feel like such a rubbish mum to both kids atm as Iโ€™m so tired, but especially my second as heโ€™s not getting the same one on one time my eldest got!
