Hello,
I am looking for some nighttime help! My LO is 5 and a half months old. From about 2 months on, he was sleeping 4-6 hours in a row, but when he turned 4 months the wheels came off-he is now up sometimes every 2 hours. Last night was the first time he did 4 and a half hours in a month in a half, but then I nursed him and he was up 2 hours later, my husband did pu/pd, he went back to sleep for another hour and a half and was up again-he did pu/pd again and then got up at 6:30, so I brought him downstairs to nurse. Are we doing this right? I nursed him when he woke up at 12:30 since the last time I feed him was 7:15. I am not sure what to do and I am so cranky I feel bad for everyone around me, including out 6 and 4 year olds!
Is he getting confused because when he cries sometimes I nurse him if it has been 4 or 5 hours and sometimes we do pu/pd-we always wait 5 minutes to see if he can settle himself
