My 6 month old has reverted back to waking up and insisting on eating 2 and even 3 times during the night. We are back to a newborn schedule... Help!!! I'm one exhausted Mama!
My 8 month old just started doing this as well. Until his first tooth popped through yesterday! Last night he slept all night. I am not much help, but I hope you get some sleep soon!
It could be a growth spurt or teething. Is your LO still going back down okay afterwards? My LO just turned 6 months, and last week she was waking every 3h or so. She was taking full feedings, so I let her nurse and put her back down. I did put more focus on daytime nursing and naps, making sure she wasn't distracted during feedings. I don't know if that had any effect though. She's back to waking once now. No teeth came through, but she did grow a fair bit this week.
I'm in the same sleepy boat with you. My DS (8.5 months) woke every 2 hours last night. More teeth are coming in, and he's learning more standing/sitting skills. I keep in mind that this is temporary -- it has to be!
