What exactly is bedtime!!?
My 9 weeks old keeps waking up every hour or hour and a half max, he is breast fed but now I give him a top feed before, what we call is putting him to bed! Still doesn’t stretch that sleep cycle also he will only stay in his cot for couple of hours then I have to make him co- sleep! What are you’ll doing for it mama’s?

Are you picking him up even if he's not crying?
Sounds completely normal to me x
what does his day look like nap wise
At 9 weeks, that's entirely normal. His stomach is tiny
One thing you might want to avoid is picking them up before they're actually fully awake. Most babies are pretty noisy sleepers and can shuffle squirm and even winge in their sleep without actually waking fully. So it's possible that you could be waking him to feed before he actually needs to. The French recommend "le pause" which basically means just wait and see if they fully wake or go back to sleep. If they start falling back to sleep instead of fully waking, they're developing a healthy habit of longer stretches of sleep. This will of course mean they'll be noticably hungrier when they wake fully
