6 month old tantrums at bedtime

Advice needed, my wonderful sleepy nearly 6month old little baby has now decided that sleep is akin to murder and screams/fights whenever she is ready to sleep.

She has gone from sleeping
11hours before a quick feed to waking 8 or 9 times a night. Lots of changes have happened, she has gotten over sickness, been moved to her own room and started
weaning. Is it a combination of these things? Please tell me it will get better! Does
anybody have any advice? TIA

Yeah I wold say it probably is a combination of those, best advice is to try keep on as normal with bedtime routine. Use low lights, minimal eye contact and talking when putting her down or if she wakes in the night.

Every baby is different but from my experience it can take around 3-7 days for them to get the hint and just go to sleep. If it doesn't work then there is probably something else bothering her.
