Hi
My baby will be 6 months on 17 july. She has always been an independent sleeper with a 12 hour night but crappy naps! Last 2 days she has been waking up between 4.45-5.15 for the day. I have managed to get her back to sleep by ssh pat but it's taking an hour. We don't have a strict easy due to poor naps which I can't extend and long feeding times. She's bottle fed and takes up to an hour for 7 oz! She has 3 7oz bottles and 9 oz before bed so 30 oz total. She feeds ~4 hourly as not hungry before then. No nf for few weeks now and stopped Df 2 days ago ( i dont think that's related to EW as she only took 2-3oz and won't drink it at 5am!! But is drinking more during day). No signs of teeth but have tried med bedore sleep in case she is and has been crawling for few weeks now and not extra hungry so dont think it's a gs. Not started solids yet. I have tried extending morning a times from 1.45-2.15 following posts on here with no success over last few days. She used to go to sleep from awake with v little fuss but can take upto 10 mins now.
