advice on getting my 5 month old to sleep better at night?
Hi was wondering if any of you could give me some advice/tips on getting older babies to sleep better at night? My 5month old is so unsettled at night has been since he was born, I put him in his cot when hes tired at about 8pm then he wakes again at 10pm’ish then 12ish then 1.30ish then 2ish… its every hour an half realy he wakes in the night, and its just realy draining me, and the only way to get him off to sleep again is by breastfeeding him, hes way on solid foods now so dont understand why he still needs feeding this much at night still? be ok just getting up once or twise but this is just becoming a real pain lol, my head feels fuzzy all the time, when he wakes in the night do i leave him there to cry it out for a while? theres so many methods… i just dont know what to do? any advice i’ll be thankfull 
Also he only has upto 2hrs nap during the day which is’nt alot for his age.
Good grief woman, he doesn’t need feeding in the night if he’s on solids, you don’t need a roast dinner at 3.30 am, do ya!? I bought a book called the Contented Little Baby by Gina Ford and it is kinda tough but my son slept through the night from nine weeks. You have to be tough and let him cry it out. Buy the book, it’s really good!
