Thanks Becj for your help so far.
Just a couple of extra details -
I feed him (bf) at around 7,11, 3 and 6.15 during the day
He has 2 solid meals at around 8 and 5.15 daily (not terribly large though)
He doesn't have any props
He does have a comforter - a 'taggie'
We had around 6 weeks of sleep regression which we brought to an end from the night of 3rd September by allowing some crying (definitely not a really upset cry - any upset cry we go to him and help to resettle) and aiming for just 1 feed overnight.
The 2nd night he woke around 10 - left to SS and then didn't wake until 4.50, the 3rd night he again woke around 10, left to SS and then didn't wake until 6.30am.
From then he went back to wanting a feed generally somewhere from 11.30 to 1.30 (which I'm okay with as he only feeds 4 times during the day). He's always hungry at this wake.
After the couple of near STTNs and the above feeds were added he was waking around 4,5,6 (ish) as mentioned in a previous post.
As you can see below I fed Tues, he really wasn't that interested, Weds I fed 1 side and with Thurs. in all cases I'm certain he's not terribly hungry - his cry is very different to the cry when he wakes between 11 and 1 for a feed and when I take him to the seat I feed him in he'd be happy to just sit there with me.
As i said above, In the past few days our naps have been much better but nights are still really weird I'll give u a rundown of the past 3 days -
Tuesday
Woke at 6.30 - fed then also
Nap 1 - down 8.45 - 8.49 asleep woke 10.02 back about 10.20, woke 10.30
=1.13
Nap 2 - down 12.44 asleep before 12.55 woke 13.24 back sleep 13.36 woke 14.27
= 1.20
Nap 3 - in pram 4.55 to 5.15
= 20
Solids 5.25, feed 6.05
Bed 6.40, asleep by 7.10

- Woke and Fed 12.30
- Woke and Fed 4.00 - wasn't terribly interested.
- Woke 6.30 put self back to sleep
We woke DS at 7
Wednesday -
Nap 1 - down at 9.20 asleep 9.25 woke 10.05, back to sleep 10.11 Woke 11.07
= 1.34
Nap 2 - in pram (mothers group) - 25 minutes
Nap 3 - sleep 15.26 wake 3.53 back 15.58 (ish) woke 16.12 16.22 woke 16.59
= 1.18
Bed 7.00

- Fed 1.00 and 4 (just 1 side - around 5 mins)
- Woke 6, Put self back to sleep
- we woke DS at 7
Thursday
Nap 1 - 9.30 to 10.36
= 1.06
Went out so next nap late
Nap 2 - 1 .13 - 2.00 & 2.08 - 2.20
= 59
Nap 3 - 5.05 to 5.25
Asleep for the night 19.11
- Didn't wake until 11.30 ish - fed
- Woke 2 ish too close to last feed, left to SS
- Woke 4.15 - left 10 mins, almost resettled a number if times but fed 1 side (around 5 mins)
- When put back down was quiet 5 mins, then cried for a number of minutes
- Didn't wake again until 7am (7.07)
I'm really at a loss.... If I don't feed him that 2nd time overnight he seems to wake a number of times thereafter, if I do feed him (even though he doesn't seem to really want it) he takes some time to SS but doesn't wake again - and last night he first woke around 2.15 after his nightly feed - there's no way he was hungry!
What do you think?
