Night wakings/rocking to aleep

Denise

Ok so my LO (about to be 7 months) went from pretty much sleeping through the night to now waking multiple times and needing to be rocked back to sleep. I am trying to figure out what the problem is. I do rock him to sleep every night and put him down asleep. Should I start putting him down drowsy but awake? I don’t want to as snuggling him to sleep is my favorite thing, but also need to start getting some sleep myself lol if I do start this, do I have to do it for all of his naps too?! I try to put him down in his crib for naps, but I also love to do contact naps because I know he’ll sleep for more than 30 minutes. Just looking for some advice!! Thanks laidies!!!
