being a monkey at night - help/advice

[shanny]

LO is 5 weeks old and for the first 4 weeks he has been reaaly good at night having a good feed and going back down easily - also only waking 2/3 times when i am actually in bed

this last week he is waking more not settling and not getting a good feed.......

hence he wakes more ..........would love to get him back to where he was....any ideas??

or do i just need to wait til it all falls in place??/

Sounds like a growth spurt if bubs is up a taking more feeds. Just go with it and hopefully it'll settle again. Make sure you give both sides at each feed. Sadly I'm still up 3 times a night 4 months later. Sigh!

Definitely sounds like a growth spurt Hun.

Feed him when he wants and eventually it'll stop being so frequent.

I actually feel like the more you go with it and just feed, feed, feed, the quicker the spurts are.
