1.5 year old keeps waking up same time

Hello,
ao i have a 1.5 year old that was used to be fed at night 2 times and we have stopped giving him a bottle 2 weeks ago, but he keeps waking up every 3 hours on spot.
he knows how to sleep independently at noon and at night we only say good night and thats it.
when he wakes up every 3 hours we just give him a pacefier or put on a blanket and he immediately goes back to sleep
but how can we deal with it? When its gonna be a full night? Are we doing somthing wrong?

Not doing anything wrong. He'll gradually start waking less. Sounds like he's doing really well already.

But how much time is it? 2 weeks is not enough? 1-2 months? 😪

Could it be sleep apnoea or tonsils? I don't know anything about either of these but I have heard they can cause difficulty sleeping. A friend's son had huge tonsils and had a lot of trouble staying asleep, until they were removed aged 3 and apparently he was like a different child!

not saying it's either of these things, OP!

Yes, a few months probably. You'll go from waking every night, to the occasional night through where you think you have cracked it, then a load more wakening nights, and gradually you'll get more none wait nights. It'll come.

If he’s losing his blanket is he getting chilly? My DS sleeps much better in sleep suit (the type with feet, not bags)

I dont think its the blanket issue or stuff like that because he is literally wakinh up in the same hour at night on spot! Its like he got used to waking up for food like before but we dont give any food but the waking still havent stopped
if it was waking up here and there not on the same hour i wold think it is somthing else
i really hope we will see some change in the coming weeks 😪
