Hi my lo is 6 months old and her sleep pattern has recently chnaged - i used to feed her at bedtime for 7 pm and then dream feed at 10/half 10 then she would sleep through till 7 am. however recently she is waking alot more usually between 4-5 am and I can't settle her only if i feed her but then she is not interested in her morning feed!! I don't think she is hungry when she wakes but don't know what to do? I have been slowly weaning her for the past 4 weeks but she is still on small amounts of fruit and veg. Any advice is appreciated!!

Just before my DS hit 6 months he suddenly turned from an ok sleeper in to the sleeper from hell. he would wake at 2am and refuse to go back to sleep until 5am regardless of whether we fed him/cuddled him etc. Not sure why it happened but after 2 weeks I got so p'd off we did controlled crying. this kind of worked but then he started waking up again but atleast giving him some milk sent him back to sleep. i think babies go through these inexplicable phases every now and again. not much help i know, but at least you know that other people have had the same experience!
