17 weeks night wakings, and unsettled early morning
« on: February 09, 2011, 09:55:38 am »
My 17 weeks old son is waking about 3 or 4 times a night (a result of accidental parenting I think). I am exclusively breastfeeding for about 30mins (20mins and 10mins on each side) every 3 hours in the day and a couple of times at night. He naps for about 45 mins at each but I am working on getting him back to sleep as he was really overtired...

When he wakes up he hollers very loudly and if we wait it out he gets louder and louder... Can self sooth earlier in the night, but won't at his 1130pm or 3am / 4am / 5 am wakings. When he wakes from 3am, he just doesn't seem to settle...

Should he be on a 4 hour routine..?

How should I reduce the night feeds?

How can I get him to settle... wondering about the wts?
