Baby’s sleep getting worse

My little boy who will be 6 months on the 31st has literally just got himself so hysterical after waking up an hour after being put to bed.
He’ll probably wake every 1-2 hours now for the rest of the night and will only fall back to sleep with a feed.
He will self settle in the day for naps and used to wake only 2-3 times in the night, but he’s been getting worse with each week.
I track his daytime sleep to make sure he’s having the appropriate wake windows etc.
I know I shouldn’t feed to sleep at night but he wont stop screaming and I’ve got my little girl who i don’t want disturbed.

Anyone else going through this or have any tips?

My LG has been a nightmare today. She is poorly and wouldn’t go down for 8 days (genuinely would wake up screaming and crying and the pram wouldn’t work either). Finally got better the last 3 nights but today has been relentless. It’s possibly teething or developmental 🫠

Is he in his own room yet?

Self settling

Any tips or advice of how to teach 6.5month old to self settle? I’m up multiple times in the night to cuddle her back to sleep and put the dummy in. I understand she will wake up and want a cuddle etc but any tips on self settling would be appreciated 🥰

Baby losing weight

Hi all, it's been a long time since I had a baby (my son is 15!). My daughter is 10 days old and was 9lb born, she has since lost weight at every appointment and is at a 12% loss. I am breast feeding every two hours for over an hour and topping her up every feed. I pump and can get 60ml in 10 minutes so I know my supply is okay. Anyone had this before? Can give me some tips? I currently feel like I'm letting my baby down.

Breastfeeding

Does it ever feel better? The actual feeding part of it is going really well and baby boy is growing so well. I’m struggling with how my boobs feel day to day - it’s really getting me down most days. The let downs make me feel awful and sounds silly but, I am also really missing not wearing a bra! 9 weeks postpartum and still getting fairly engorged, even with comfort pumping.

Any advice or just shared stories would help. I’m so torn between carrying on because I enjoy the feeding side of it or switching to formula.

Help! First time mum -

I have a 4 month old and now all of a sudden when he’s been asleep for 1hr30/2hrs he will wake up screaming (high pitched) I’ve tried winding him sometimes that helps, I’ve tried bicycle legs & bringing his knees up but that doesn’t seem to help but he brings his knees up himself sometimes but nothing happens. I’ve noticed since the 4 month mark he has started to struggle passing wind downwards! Any tips?
