The baby sleep problem
Hi i have a 4month old boy and he was 10 pounds born and right from the word go has had trouble sleeping. He is fully on formula feed. He can sleep and will sleep in my arms and be transfers to ours or his bed and can sometimes go down on his own but not at night sometimes to save the crying he comes into our bed and he will sleep longer but my husband is a farmer and needs a good sleep and isak cry is very loud. But he has cat naps during the day for no longer than 30mins and that can be 2 on a good day if i put him in our bed he might sleep up to 2hrs. He can sleep through the night coz he has done it 3 times for 9.5hrs. He generally sleeps at night 6-7hrs but has been waking crying or talking to himself...he has a dummy and this may have fallen out. I go in and resettle him but he still has 2 full bottle feeds at night but will only take 2 full feeds during the day and the rest 1/2 feeds he is on 200mls. he likes it every 2.5-3hrs but im trying to get this to be 3-4hrs. I brought him a frog called baby tad and this plays music and i put this on if i put him to bed awake and it might take up to 20mins sometimes to get him to sleep..Can u please hep me or recommend anything to get him to sleep longer at night and get rid of the 2 night feeds or even just 1. I do swaddle him loosley and he has a saftey sleep coz he like to try rolling over. He is anywhere between 18-20pounds im waiting for Plunket to come. He is a good boy and during the day its fine but i do feel he needs more sleep and so do I.
