My 6 week old boy wakes up at 5 am and doesn't sleep again. I try to keep things low key and only change him if necessary. I feed him and try to put him back to sleep,but to no aveil!!He stays awake until about 9 and then i only get him to sleep in the sling with me. I feel so knackered in the mornings! I have quite a good pm/am routine. He usually falls asleep at 9pm and then i dreamfeed at 10:30 with formula bottle (i bf but seems as if he is too sleepy and doesnt latch to drink),then he usually wakes at 2am or 3am and i feed him expressed bottle, quite a bit coz i thought that he might sleep longer. But he still wakes early. I swaddle him but can only do it when he is sleeping,he hates it while awake! But seems as if he gets annoyed from 4am and keeps wriggling around trying to get free. That makes him restless and wakes him. The light seems to make a difference aswell coz as soon as its day he wants to observe everything. i am hoping it will be better as soon as its winter and darker!Otherwise im stuck with this boy being awake with the hens!
