Waking every 2 hours at night

Hi, recently my boy is waking up every 2 hours. He’s 5 months. Have you experienced that? How do you deal with it? He’s co sleeping and EBF. TIA

Same here people keep telling me it's just what breastfed babies do! Surely that can't be right

Mine has started waking a lot and I just latch him then go back sleep. I find not checking my watch helps so I don't realise how often it is and as I don't wake enough to even want to know the time. Sorry that's not that helpful. It's fairly normal at this age I seem to remember from my older children that babies are learning to link sleep cycles or something

So it's a sign of progress

Same boat. Something has got to give. We're exhausted! How often do you feed him. I'm going to stop feeding her every 2 hours and start trying to stretch her to 3 to 4 hours in the day and see if that helps at night.
