My baby has always slept through the night and the past 3 nights we’ve gone from one awakening to tonight 3 awakenings which has resulted in me feeding her as that’s the only way she’s settled.
Does anyone know what this could be? She is 6.5 months and I’m conscious she should be dropping feeds not increasing them!

Sorry I can’t give any advice, but just to say my baby is exactly the same at the moment so feel exactly the same as you, hopefully passes soon 🥰

It's just a phase, it will pass :)

Could it be teething? 🥺

I could have written this myself 😭 Usually sleeps through the night but last few nights has been waking around midnight for a feed. Last night he woke up about 5 times just wanting to play or crying with his teeth 😞 Hang in there it will pass X

She shouldn't be dropping feeds at 6.5 months. My LB also increased his feedings at 6 months, but it's settled back down to what it was before now at 7months

Maybe increase the daytime feed amounts? The only way to really "drop" feeds is by still getting the correct amount overall and spreading it through the day rather than feeding extra at night.
We had a very rough week or so around the 6 month mark. With one twin then the other. So it's just a stage they go through. There's no clear beginning or end to it though, sorry! I hunted for that kind of info myself when I went through it 😫
