Hi.. I realise my little one is going through the big 3.5-4mth old big growth spurt/milestone.. and wonder if this is regularly accompanied by waking after 45 min at night. He does it every night, sometimes twice (ie. after 45 min and another 45 min cycle) and until a few days ago, he only needed a little head pat and shush and would drift off into the next cycle, but now he will not resettle unless I pick him up and put him to sleep in my arms. He normally goes to sleep on his own and sucks his bottom lip to soothe himself to sleep once I put him down.
Most nights he falls asleep on the breast after a bath and massage, but i gently rouse him before I put him into bed.
Anyone else experience this? Is OT?
He is on a 3hr EASY (this last two days alot more though, every 2-2.5hrs) naps 1.5hrs in the morning (most mornings but not all) and sometimes the equivalent at midday nap but mostly one long nap in the morning and 3 x 45min naps the rest of the day.
Any ideas welcomed.
