For the last week DS2 wakes if we put him down (we had been managing to get him down for the first part of the night typically with 1 wake between 9pm and 2am). Now we can't put him down and he sleeps on me or my husband. He is also SO restless especially once it hits 2am. He is typically waking ever 1/1.5hrs and might have a quick feed before going back to sleep. He isn't awake for long in the night and isn't upset but just so so restless.
In addition to this during the day he is a difficult baby to feed (BF). Often refusing feeds unless we are home and lying down (!). My first son was similarly tricky to feed and never slept but screamed all night and he had CMPA and silent reflux but I don't think that's the case with DS2. He isn't particularly unsettled and aside from his bizarre feeding preference and restlessness at night he doesn't seem uncomfortable. I've cut dairy from my diet to see if it helps at all. I spoke to the doc about it a month ago and they did prescribe some omeprazole. However I didn't start using it as feeding seemed to pick up and we weren't having so many issues with sleep at night. Now I'm in two minds....could this all be silent reflux but just without the screaming/crying/colic. Surely if it was he would be in pain or can silent reflux be something that interrupts sleep in the way I described above.
I'm so tired and not sure what to try next but I feel emotional all the time and worried I'll end up with PND if this continues.... I don't mind him sleeping on or next to us at all. I'm happy to co-sleep but he just doesn't settle. I don't think he is waking so much because he is hungry...he cluster feeds in the evening until 9pm ish and I've been deliberately spending time at home to make sure he is taking in good daytime feeds.
