Hello! My LO is 7 months and wakes every sleep cycle for boob. If he doesn’t get it, he cries. The odd time I will pick him up and rock him back to sleep. Either way, I’m exhausted and even with cosleeping I’m hardly getting any sleep.
It was like this since his 4 month regression for about 10 weeks then around 5.5-6 months we started to see longer sleep stretches and only 2-3 feeds per night. During this heavenly time, he maaaay have stirred or woke lightly each cycle, but it was unbeknownst to me cause a simple cuddle would get him back to sleep easy and it felt like I was getting 3-4 hour stretches of sleep. I was just starting to feel human again when…
Around 7 months (the last 12 days to be precise) we’re back to hourly wakings settled only by boob.![Weary face :weary: 😩](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f629.png)

I’m curious for others who are cosleeping, how often do you feed baby at night? Do you settle other ways? Have you experienced ebbs and flows of many waking’s to just a few?
He’s a month into solids, probably teething, starting the 3-2 nap transition and so many other developmental milestones are happening so I know other things are a factor here but needing boob every sleep cycle is rough. I’m hoping for some solidarity or advice from people who are in the same boat or have been there![Folded hands: light skin tone :pray_tone1: 🙏🏻](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f64f-1f3fb.png)

(P.S. He sleeps with his mouth open so I am seeing a pediatrician to rule out any medical conditions like sleep apnea)
Thanks all![Smiling face :relaxed: ☺️](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/263a.png)
