sleep question, yes another one

My LO has been an awsome sleeper up untill about a week ago. I'm pretty sure hes going through 4MW.  Last night he went down at 9 and woke up screaming every 20mins or so and will not stop untill I pick him up. He did this untill 2:30am. I've tried standing next to him while patting his tummy and shhhhing. a few night ago I tried to let him CIO. After 30mins of screaming I had to go get him. Both me and DH found it very stressful and really just awful. He usually falls asleep within 5 mins of me picking him up. I really don't want to be picking him up whenever he freaks, but nothing else I'v tried calms him down.  I've also tried moving bedtime back, tried changing nap schedual but nothing seems to help.  Untill a week ago he had no problem putting himself to sleep and would self sooth without a problem. I know hes not hungery and I try not to nurse him unless I think he actually his hungery. I'm starting to dread night time.  Anyone have a similar situation you were able to fix or improve?

    You could get him checked for an ear infection to rule that out.  Laying down will make it more painful.

    i feed him ever other time he gets up, so about every hour. he does eat when i fed him, but only for a min or so and doesn't suck very hard at all. nursing will calm him down for a few mins, then he will fussy untill i rock him back to sleep. last night was actually awsome tho! STTN just like he used to. i raised the angle of the crib and it seems to work wonders. i'm hopeing tonight goes this well.
