Hello!
I have a 7 month old baby who was sleeping through the night with one dream feed at 11pm. He now is waking up at 3-4am as well crying for food. Is this a growth spurt? He’s also teething. I don’t know if it’s something I need to train out of him.. any moms going through this? Any suggestions

We went through the same thing. It seemed like from 4-12 month my kid was either going through a regression or teething. He didn’t really sleep through the night until after he turned 1.
We just kinda rolled with it until it got better as we aren’t keen on sleep training for our family.
I really just went with my mom instincts each night he woke up. Sometimes he needed Tylenol, a bottle, or just rocking him back down.

Is he staying up a full hour from 3-4am? If your LO is asking for food when they wake I would trust their instincts, and suspect yes it's a growth spurt👍. It's absolutely normal for a baby to wake during the night, and need to feed until after 1yr of age. This does not sound like something you should be try to train out of him

I suspect a growth spurt. It will subside and pick up again. I don’t think training will help. Sorry for the stress🩷
