LO is 14 weeks and used to sleep 8-9 hours in one stretch at night. Since 2 weeks ago his night time sleeping has taken a turn for the worst and he started waking every hour or so after the first night feed. The past 3 days it's become even worse, bed at 8pm, up at 9.30, 10.30, 2, and then every hour after that. Can this be sleep regression at 3 months rather than 4?
I always offer him the boob when he wakes in case
he is hungry, but he usually falls asleep again within minutes so I don't think it's a growth spurt. He used to only wake at night when he was hungry, but now he wakes just to lie there with his eyes open and then after 5 or 10 mins he cries as he's never been able to settle himself to sleep. I'm worried that I'm making a bad habit worse with feeding him to sleep every time he wakes even when I know he's not hungry, but that's the only way he knows how to sleep at night so I'm at a loss with what else to do. I tried cosleeping last night but he hasn't been a fan since he was a newborn, makes him more restless and he just wants to use me as a human dummy all night.
He is also awful at sleeping during the day, but that's nothing new.
