my dd is just under 8 months and wakes up regularly say 30 mins or 1 hour after going to sleep in the evening. this might happen 2 or 3 times before I go to bed. she had a period a couple of weeks ago where for a week she went to bed then was silent till she woke for a feed at 12-1am (what joy, watched some films, spent time with dh etc!). but now she has gone back to waking in the evening. she goes straight back to sleep usually when I pick her up or if I pat her in the cot. she does have her first two teeth looking like they might be coming through shortly so do you think that is the cause?
by the way, she used to be a dream pre the 4 month growth spurt which lasted about 6 weeks, sleeping through to 4am with only one night feed - aahh those were the days! now I usually bf her twice during the night, the second one being early early morning really, around 5-5.30.
please let me know it isn't just me. my nct friends babies all seem to sleep very well apparently!
