Hello!
My son is finally sleeping through the night but he wakes up every morning at 5am. He isn't hungry because when ive tried to feed him (formula) then he doesn't eat well for is 1st feeding of the day at 8:30 so I know he isnt hungry. Ive also tried changing his diaper and that doesn't help. I try shushing and rocking him and that will get him to sleep about 10 mins more. The only thing that works is if I bring him downstairs and put him in the swing at top speed, he will fuss for a few mins then pass out till 8 which is when I want him to wake up.
He eats (6oz formula) at 8:30 11:30 2:30 5:30 8:30 and is asleep by 9-9:30. He eats then has waketime for about 45 mins then naps for about an hour to sometimes 2 hours. he does not nap at all after 5:30. Ive tried putting him to bed earlier and he just wakes up earlier at like 4am!
also, I put him to bed unswaddled but he wakes up every night squirming and fussing around 2:30am and wont go back to sleep until I swaddle him and put his binkie back in. then sleeps till 5am. this sleep pattern has been going on for almost a month now.
Please, help....anything I can do to get him to sleep solid until 8 am??
