5 month old still waking every 2 to 3 hours at night
Ok, right before my son turned 4 months old, he was sleeping in 6 hour blocks at night, 9 to 3 am, then feed and right back to sleep until 530 or even 630... then he hit his growth spurt / sleep regression and he wakes every 2 to 3 hours at night, and does not take more than 30 min naps during the day. I was thinking it would last a week or two.. Well I was wrong!!! He is stilllllllll doing this, it's been 5 weeks now. I am getting desperate, I gave him a bottle last night the 1st time he woke up, (formula) Well, it didn't make a difference, except my boobs got sore from not feeding.
I've been trying the side lying position because I need sleep, but then I can't sleep because I'm scared he's gonna suffocate or I'm gonna roll on him.
He sometimes even wakes every 1 to 1.5 hours at night.. not to eat, but just to be held. I seriously don't know what to do. I'm about to give up BF and switch entirely to formula just to see if he will sleep.
