6.5 mo BLW still waking 3 or 4 x per night - please come and give me hope!

[KKKKaty]

My 6.5 mo DS is still waking at least three times, sometimes four or five times a night. I've tried literally everything, currently I've resorted to ignoring him if he's fed less than three hours ago. He's BLW and is eating more and more each day. Please can you come and give me your stories of hope - I'm looking for lots of examples of babies who've suddenly decided to sleep through when they turned six and three quarter months!!

No answers, but sympathy. DS is the same. We're working on better self-settling at bedtime. or any self-settling! And then trying to get him back down without a feed before I go to bed - have decided for now that whatever works quickest is the deal once I'm in bed, though. I need the sleep!

Thanks for your reply. Sorry to hear you have the same issue. However, every nap time and at bedtime I put him in his cot awake and he goes down without any fuss, so I can't do anything more about self-settling, I don't think. I don't know why he wakes. When he shouts in the night and I feed him, half the time he just has a few sucks and goes back to sleep, but as I don't feed him to sleep, I don't believe it can be a suck to sleep issue. I'm at the end of my tether, so tired now.
