So my baby is 9 months now. Since beginning of December he has been sleeping terribly. He will go to sleep fine in his cot which is next to my bed. He has the right amount of clothes on for the temperature. He has a bottle before sleep but I put him down awake and then he goes off with a dummy. He's on the whole been a good sleeper. Maybe woke a few times for his dummy but that's not a problem for me.
But since December he's been waking frequently. Crying loads and only settling when I hold him so we end up co sleeping for the rest of the night. He was also waking up anytime from 4:30am onwards. This has stopped in the past three days but the frequent night waking hasn't. So I'm guessing it was a regression but now have we just got into bad habits? He naps twice a day and goes to sleep without rocking or anything. So I'm a bit confused.
