7 mo and sleep has gone pear-shaped

[malenka]

My 7 month old DS has started waking up over, and over, and over again. Last night was a marathon 2-hour battle to get him to fall asleep. My DH was trying to get him to sleep and every time he would drift off, he would wake 30 seconds later screaming. Eventually he fell asleep while BFing at 10 pm  Then he woke at 12, 2, 5:30. When he wakes, I try to settle him but he just screams and screams until I feed him. I'm BFing, so it's hard to tell how much he's taking in. I'm wondering if this is the 6 month GS a little late?

Some extra background info: he doesn't have a paci and he has reflux but it's well controlled with meds. He's really trying to crawl right now, so I'm wondering if this could be a developmental thing. He doesn't have any teeth yet, but I gave him meds last night and he still woke, so I'm guessing it's not teething pain. Could it be SA?

Here's yesterday's EASY in case that helps:

E 6:00 (back to sleep)
A 8:00 (awake for the day)
E 8:30
solids 9:30
S 11:00 - 12:45 (1 hr 45)
E 12:30
solids 1:30
E 3:30
S 3:45 - 5:45 (2 hrs)
solids 6:00
E 7:30
Here's where the bedtime battle began. I ended up feeding him again at 10 and he fell asleep. He woke again and I fed him at 12, 2, 5:30.

Any ideas to help with these NWs? This has been going on for well over a week now and I'm getting tired

He settles really easily for naps - I see his sleepy cues, I bring him to his room, lay him in his crib, close the blinds, turn on some music and walk out. He falls asleep within minutes. We do the same for bedtime, but add diaper change and pjs.

My LO wasn't STTN, but he was only waking sometime between 3-5 for a feed. At that time he always takes a full feed, so I just feed him and put him back in his crib and he falls asleep.

His milk intake hasn't increased during the day that I can tell. He's not feeding more often, but maybe he's getting more? It's hard to tell with BF how much he takes in, especially since he's a fairly efficient eater.

I have started solids (take another look at my EASY, they're there, but maybe I didn't type it in a way that's clear - 9:30, 1:30, 6:00), but he's quite a reluctant eater and I don't manage to get much into him.

Thankfully last night went better. It still took ages to get him off to sleep, but he only woke at 10:00 and 3:30 for a feed, which is more in line with what he used to do. He also woke at 12 but he settled himself.

I'm starting to think it's a GS...
