My DS is coming up to 6 months next week. In the last couple of weeks he seems to have lost his ability to self sooth, fusses unless I hold him and walk around with him, and doesn't seem to sleep for more than an hour at a time in the night.
The only way to get him to sleep now is to feed him - which could be up to 6 times each night. Sometimes even after feeding I put him down he'll wake straightaway and I have to repeat the process a couple of times within a short space of time.
This is a drastic change to the progress we had made when he had been managing anything up to 7 hours in a row. He used to be able to self sooth during the day and often fell asleep without much input from myself or DH. He just seems to be unhappy and fusses 80% of the time.
Has anyone else experienced this sort of behaviour around the 6 month period? Any advice or help would be great!
