advice -- sleep regression/growth spurt or needing food

[shanny]

Not sure what is going on with my baby he is almost 18 weeks and from 10 weeks slept all night 7-7

now over last 3/4 weeks he has woken up once a week at 4 ish and i fed him and he went back to sleep straight away

before he was having 2xbf and 3xformula (now an extra bf)

last week he has been waking up at 4 for 4 nights in a row

none of my others did this or were as heavy he is 16lbs plus

so sleep regression??

need weaning??

or a growth spurt?

he seems normal and not any more hungry during the day

cheers for any advice

Growth spurt I'd say! My wee man just been through the same. Settled around 20 weeks xxx

 

[shanny]

did you just feed through it

Yeh. Admittedly my wee boy is already on solids once daily (for different reasons) but this didn't make a difference. He was still wakening twice a night for milk. It did pass though. Now he's sleeping 7:30-7 on average xxx
