MY 12 week old DD wakes up 5-7 times a night. She used to only wake up 1-2 times. She has also lost her long stretch of sleep that she used to have. She is on a 3.5hr EASY. She has just started staying up for around 1.5 hours. We stopped her DF several weeks ago because she never took very much from the bottle.
She has had 45 minute naps since she was 6 weeks old. I try to extend them but with little to no success.
When I put her down to sleep I swaddle her, darken the room, give her a pacifier, sit with her for about 5 mins and put her in her crib drowsy but awake. She then puts her self to sleep. She usually falls asleep with her pacifier but I have tried to remove it before I leave the room, especially at night.
At night she wakes up aroun 12, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and I wake her up at 7. I feed her at her 12 and 3 or 4 wake up. The other times I give her the pacifier and she falls back asleep.
I just don't know what to do...should I take away the pacifier?
On top of everything we have had non-stop company for the last 3 weeks and have to go away this weekend...so I am thinking whatever I do I should start next week.
Should I reintroduce the dreamfeed?
Any help would be greatly appreciated...I am so tired...
Thanks,
Megen and Selah
