So my lovely cheerful little DS goes down at 8pm with little fuss, no feeding to sleep, no dummy, no white noise etc, gets up at 11pm for a feed and down again in the same way.
And then the fun begins. Last night he went down after his feed and then woke at 1.30 and every 45 minutes after that. He's not waking up hungry as his hungry cry draws the hounds of hell he just seems to not manage to stay asleep.
At the end of my tether as everyone I speak to says 'oh you're doing everything right (routine etc), it'll come eventually' but he's been like this for 14 WEEKS and sometimes he'll go 4 hours in a row but then it's back to like it was last night.
I'm really looking for recommendations of approaches/books to look at that have worked for anyone who's had similar problems. Really, really don't want to go down the CC route, but struggling to see any alternatives at the moment .
