Fee again, he sound so much like my Cooper. We had about 10 nights in a row where he slept through from 10pm to 5am (I still give him a late night top up) and the last few nights he has woken up about 2 - the first night, wouldn't settle without a b/f, and then last night when he wouldn't settle, I sat him on my lap and read a book, and he settled straight away.
A nurse advised me to give him food that was more mashed than pureed now, because it takes longer to digest and therefore may not wake up for a b/f as they aren't as hungry. (I had thought that it should be thoroughly pureed even at his age) So far this seems to be working most of the time. The other things that are working to help him self settle is his baby dreaming CD, and he also loves to cuddle a shirt of mine that I have been wearing. Funny, because 3 weeks ago this didn't work, but now is.
But I am sure you are trying these things anyway, but keep persisting!
