Feed & sleep

Anyone else LO gone from 1 feed back to 2 feeds a night again?

My LO used go to bed at 7 and have a feed either about midnight or 3ish. However the last week, he has been waking up about midnight for his feed and then again for 4:30. Sometimes he will finish the bottle but sometimes he won't. He's getting harder just to sooth back to bed too and not soothing himself back to sleep. He then will wake up and hour later and it will take an hour to sooth him back to sleep.

Feel like I going mad as I do this pretty much on my own. Please tell me someone else is experiencing this too?

I could have written this myself! My LB is 10 months old and is now waking up around 3am every morning, can’t self settle and wanting a bottle, he will happily fall asleep in your arms but screams when you put him back down. We’ve had to reintroduce a dream feed too at around 11pm🤷🏼‍♀️
Sometimes he has 6-7oz and other times he’s taking 2oz. I have no idea if it’s a sleep regression or teething but it’s been going on for a while now xx

You're right it's a "sleep regression" also know as a developmental leap. They're working really hard on learning about sequences, cause and effect and communication this leap. But they're in the pre fussy phase before you start seeing the skills. There's a really good free app called the wonder weeks that tracks and explains everything xx

Thank you girls. I thought I was going mad. Fingers crossed this isn't going to last long!
