7 month old waking after half hour

[zeec]

Thank you for the support everyone..... I took him to the doctor today and he is fine..... I just can't seem to figure out what's wrong.... yesterday I did a 15 minutes earlier bedtime and he kept waking thru the night... today I'll try to do a 15 minute later bt....if I let him cry, then it lasts for hour...plus I dont feel good abt him crying...hopefully this shall pass tooo

Hun if you are going to tweak it will take more than a day to see a difference.  You'll want to try something for at least 4-5 days to see if it works. I'm trying to remember but do you feed him at night at all? Do you feed right before bed? Could somethjing like solids at dinner because him to wake with gas?

[zeec]

I feed him solids about 3 hrs before bed and milk an hour before bedtime.i can do ebt for 4 or 5 days and see how it goes

Hope that helps!

Maybe try stopping dinner for now. He doesn't need it anyway if you are doing breakfast and lunch at this age he really doesn't need dinner and maybe do bottle closer to bt? Just  trying to think of things to  try

Thanks a bunch for ideas....right now he is taking lunch and breakfast only anyways....hope this phase passes soon...

[Skadiver13]

Oh you said you feed him solids 3hrs before bed? That's what i was thinking may cause discomfort. It might just be a phase and it will pass. Then something else will come along

So far the ebt is not working at all..he has been doing the same thing....tried everything so far..he wants to sleep but just keeps crying... Im out of ideas now...if it is separation anxiety, it should bug him in the morning too...but me being not there in the morning doesnt bug him in the morning...

If ebt isn't working, try 15 mins later to see if that helps.

[Skadiver13]

Hun it may just be a phase but try 15min later and see what happens for hte next few days.

Hello again....
past couple of days, nothing has worked yet..but I came across the idea and decided to ask. ..could thid be the 8 or 9 month regression early? My lo turns 8 months on the 20th jan...and this has been going over fr a week now...he is trying to crawl getting on all fours..could it be that?

[Skadiver13]

Absolutely. Certainly could be a phase.

The naps have become a wreck as welll...doesnt matter if I do ebt or late bedtime....im lost on how much the awake time should be after short naps?and he has started waking up super early...throwing the whole day off

[Layla]

We pretty much went by set nap times and the morning nap was no earlier than 9 am so that our day can be more or less the same. If she woke super early, like 5am, i would vary the day by 15 mins or so but not more than that.
