Hello.
I used your advises before, but it hasn't improved. Now I waited a mongh and it still the same problem; he weakes up at 5:30 and doesn't get back to sleep , doing the sshh and patt. But doesn't help. He plays a bit and then becomes quite load and upset. I try not to take him out till 7 -7:15. But it's been like that for months and it hadn't change. Goes to sleep at 6-6:30. With a paci and some crying: I'm coming to his room to calm down and pat. Then wakes at 10 for a paci. Then at 00:30 for breast feeding. Then still 5:30 finally wakes up.
We doing the 4 hours easy. But he is napping usually not longer than 40 min. Sometimes I resettle him and sleep 40 min more.
If he awakes, day or night, he can't go back to sleep by himself. I need to resettle him usually with a paci or shh and pat.
Do babies learn how to fall asleep by themselfs? After they woke up, If so when , or should I teach him some how to do that?
