hi, i have a nearly 6 month old ds and we are also going through the same thing. I was trying to feed him when he woke up but 10mins after he would wake up again. I've just realised it's his teeth waking him up because he's fussing and trying to get his whole hand in his mouth, he has no teeth but sore gums. I gave him the womens and childrens teething gel before he goes to bed and it helped alot. The first night he slept through. I found panadol wasn't strong enough. I hope that gives you any ideas
