8wks, lousy sleeper, ravenous appetite

DoughGirl

I'm so frurstrated ( or mostly tired!)

DS is a lousy sleeper.  We have a well established bedtime routine, but at night his sleep is so random and he always seems to be hungry. He won't eat more than 4 oz per feeding, but sometimes that only holds him for an hour and then he'll eat 3 or 4oz more. I've tried increasing his oz per feeding, but he just spits it up. We've tried a paci, the swing, the vibrating bouncer, pushing back bedtime..nothing seems to help.

During the day, he's like clockwork with feedings and naps. I don't even have to look at the clock to know the time. He's down to 2 naps a day, one short one in the late morning and one longer in the late afternoon.

Last night, he woke at 3am, drank a 4oz bottle, never went back to sleep and drank another 4 oz bottle at 5am, then another 4oz at 7:30 and has been awake since.

I just have to ride this out and he'll STTN when he's ready, huh? :-(
