3 months, won't sleep!!!! Help

Hey, my 3 month old son won't sleep! Up until about a week ago he was EBF but he's been biting ALOT and I haven't been able to feed anymore, every time I heal he bites through again, I believe he's teething, fingers always in his mouth and a lot of dribble. He's now on bottle and he's expressed milk + formula, gets on fine with the bottle. While he was BF he slept really well only woke up once or twice in the night, now however he wakes up up to 7 time a night! I don't know what it is because he gets on fine with the bottle and when he wakes up he literally only has like 30ml and goes back to sleep, the problem is he's waking up so much I'm not sleeping and it's driving me crazy! When it gets to 3/4am I give him boob just to send him back to sleep even though it's painful and he's biting but he still wakes up like an hour later. I'm thinking maybe I need to use hungry baby formula as maybe he's just hungry (he's a big baby, born 10lbs), does anyone have any tips or has been through this because I feel like I'm going madSadSadSad

Have you tried a dummy? Checked that he's warm enough or too hot?

Otherwise, this sounds normal. Babies go through a sleep regression at around this age.

It's hard but it will pass!

He refuses a dummy and a nipple shield but takes a bottle, it's so strange! And by the time he does fall asleep around 7am my daughter wakes up and it's time to get up Hmm
