8 week old sleep problems

[sil]

My DS was a decent night sleeper up until 6 days ago. He would go to bed around 8, dream feed when I went to sleep, and then wake up for a feed at 1, 4, and 7 when he woke up for the day. Six days ago it all changed.

Last night he went to bed at 8:30, gave him a dream feed at 10, woke up at 12 to feed, 1 crying for a cuddle, 2 to feed, 3:30 for a cuddle, 4 for a cuddle, 5 to feed, 5:40 for a cuddle, and 6:45 for the day.

I don't understand why he can't sleep for more than an hour or so without needing a feed or a cuddle at night. His sleep in the day is so much better. His schedule is like this:

Typically awake at 7
Nap from 9-11/11:30ish
Awake time until next nap, 1-3ish
Awake time until next nap, 5-6ish
Awake time until bed time at 8

I would nap when he did if I could, but unfortunately I have my other DS who is 2 at home so no naps for me. I'm exhausted. He's obviously capable of sleeping longer stretches since he goes 2 hours in the day time, but for some reason at night he's up every hour (and he's not up looking to play, just to cuddle or eat so it's not reversed nights or anything)

My lo Is 6 weeks and she will go from a few nights of feeding every 3 hrs and sleeping to a few nights of up every 2hrs so it's normal for them to change sleeping patterns all the time x
