Hi, seem to have got into an awful routine and need to fix it...

22 weeks DD used to sleep through but the past few weeks she's been not drinking enough milk in the day, just can't get her interested, and absolutely screaming and awake from 1-3 AM straight through until morning. I think she's hungry, but I've given her bottles at night and she goes to sleep then wakes up again.

I'm a single parent on only a few hours sleep each night and I'm going insane. Last night I checked at 4am and her eyes were closed but she was just screaming her head off. Usually she wakes up between 1-3, i give a bottle, she goes to sleep for an hour, and then wakes up again and is awake in my bed until 7/8 when it's time to get up. She goes to sleep at 6 30 and no problems there, self settles to sleep. She also has about half a jar of vegetable purée a day.

Any suggestions welcome x
