We are currently on day 6 of the transition from 3 hour easy to 4 hour easy. We put him down at 7ish and then he wakes up every 3-3.5 hours needing more than just a little pat. Is he waking up b/c his body knows that food comes every 3 hours or so? In a 12 hour period, our lo is waking probably 8-10 times a night and I really need help. Sometimes he is resting for 2 hours at a time. Not crying, just not in a deep sleep. Help me please.
