Hello
I'm feeling tired and grumpy. My DS started sleeping through at around 6 months. We spent ages trying to get him to sleep by himself without props, consistent routine etc. But from around 8 months he started waking again around 4:30. He does have a dummy for daytime naps. We don't give it to him at night but when he wakes we do. He used to drop back to sleep with this but now he doesn't. It feels like separation anxiety as if I stay in the room he tends to drop back off after half hour or so. He also sometimes wakes around 10-11 as well. My dh thought he was hungry so we have him dream feed again but it doesn't seem to make much difference to the 4 am wake up. He then wakes up again around 6am. His daytime naps are great! He naps around 9:30-11 and 2-4. Maybe this is too much? I give him dummy and he goes to sleep by himself. He's good at going off at 7pm as well. It's just the night wakings. I suspect there is nothing I can do but I'm really tired and not sure if this is normal or not? I am not getting off to sleep very well and wake pre empting his waking so my sleep is generally 11-4 :-( Thanks x
