My LO (3 months corrected, was premature) currently falls asleep between 8 and 9, then sleeps through til around 3.30. So far so good. He feeds at about 3.30, and this sends him back to sleep. He then goes back down to sleep in his basket. He had started sleeping through after that til about 7 - 8. But, in the last week he has started waking up about an hour after going back down, grunting and uncomfortable. I can get him back down again (e.g. rocking, legs up and cycling which sometimes helps wind out, and maybe a quick feed), but after an hour the same thing happens again, and so on until we get up. It's making me very tired, and I hate seeing him uncomfortable. I think it's wind, but I can't work out why it gets so bad at this time - the night feed (BF) is pretty relaxed, and I usually get him to burp. I have tried gripe water, which does get more wind out, but doesn't seem to stop the subsequent discomfort and waking. Any similar experiences, or tips on how to help him? Thanks!
