Ive been putting off posting about this because I kept hoping it was just a phase/because of illness etc but now theres seeming to be nothing wrong and its still happening.
He does 2x 1.5 hour naps a day and isnt sick anymore, we have at least 3 NW's per night. most of the time easily resettled with patting but if not then I will give him a bottle. he is 7 months and 1 week old.
Last night he resettled with NO nightfeeds so I know he can do it, he just may not be ready to do it every single night just yet. He goes to sleep independantly during the day and has an A time of 3 hours, he definitely cannot handle any longer than that, he does start showing tired signs at 2 hours 45mins and gets to the point where I cant do a full winddown cos hes cracked it if I leave it any longer than that.
He never does a 12 hour night, he more likely does an 11.5 hour night so I do need to work out bedtimes appropriately for that because he just doesnt tack on sleep missed during the day to his nightsleep.
how do I get him to stop waking up in the night?? My iron levels are low so Im already feeling tired as it is without this constant broken sleep added to it
can someone help me please? I never had this with my first son, he STTN from 8 weeks old
