No sleep!! Baby hates sleep!

I breast feed by 4 month old son....

For the last few weeks he's been up every 2 hours... feeds and sleeps.... and now he's doing it every 1-2 hours! Sometimes he doesn't even feed a lot (like 10 mins) and it seems just for comfort....
He then does this until 4-5am and is wide awake!!

I'm exhausted and drained!! I have no idea how to maybe change his body clock slightly!
Iv tried clam baths... massage... and putting him down at 7pm... but he sleeps till 9 then is up for 2-3 hours!!

If I do it later in the night.... he sleeps from 9pm- midnight... then is up every hour till 4am!

I think I'm going slightly crazy!!
I can feel myself falling asleep when feeding him... I feel sick when I have to get up and just getting run down.

Please if anyone has advise.... or a time routine I could try?!
Thank you!!!!

He is still very young. Could you not co sleep with him, there are safe ways of doing it. Mine used to sleep with me, no problems. In his cot he would have been up half the night!
