I wouldn’t say I’m at the end of my tether, but I am getting there. 🙁
my son (9 months old) keeps on waking every night at around 1 am, we try to settle him with dummy/ water/cuddles/shushing, but he cries until he has been changed and has been given 7 ounces of milk (which he drains!!!!)
so his routine usually goes like this:
wakes 5am 7oz milk about 5:30am
7:00 am porridge made with 4oz milk
try and keep him awake until 10 for 1st nap with 7oz milk
10-11:30 nap
11;45 lunch
1:30 bottle 7oz
wakes 2:45/3:00 (school run)
4:30 dinner
5:30/5:45 bath (not every night)7oz
6:15/6:45 sleep
in the first few hours he is tossing and turning and maybe having a cry so we put his dummy back in.
then he wakes at 1 am, change nappy give 7 ounces of milk. Then wakes between 5/530.
I don’t know if I am being too optimistic, but this just seems like I’m doing something wrong? He eats three meals throughout the day, so he can’t be hungry? But there is no way I could let him cry out for ages at night that’s why we give him the bottle.
ANY ADVICE IS VERY WELCOME 🙏🏽
