Is this a sleep regression?
My son (10.5 months old - 8.5 months corrected) has always been a good sleep he was waking up once a night for half a feed and some nights was sleeping through the night.
For the last 3 weeks sleep has been all over the place- most night he will get up 2/3 times screaming for his milk (he’s never been that fussed with milk so it’s new for us). And he has 2 full feeds in the night now. Some nights he’s so unsettled getting up about 6 times and difficult to settle.
For context:
He has 3 meals a day and 3 bottles (before his 2 naps and before he goes to sleep).
He used to be able to self settle with a little help from us, he is now fantastic at napping in the day and has a 2 hour nap (at about 10am) and a 1 hour nap (at about 3/4pm).
Any advice welcome!!
Pic so we don’t get lost.

My baby has been waking screaming a lot recently due to teething so could be that? But also that does seem to be alot of daytime sleep. Try 1.5 and 1 hour naps?
@Laura we have tried to cap his naps but he either cries until we let him go back to sleep or he’s miserable until he’s next nap

Haa the total amount of time he's napping for gone up? Might be that he's getting too much nap time and so isn't as tired at night? There is so much varied advice about the "right" amount of daytime sleep but if his has gone up that might be it. Could also maybe be developmental or teething. We got disturbed sleep before crawling and standing.
