for the last month or so my sons been waking up once in the night for a bottle... hes never been the type of baby u could settle by just rocking him, patting him ect so that doesnt work, if i give him water it just wakes him up more cuz he just plays with it ect..
is this just a phase thats going to stop or what? it doesnt bother me thatttt much but i just dont want it to become a habit... hes nearly 1
Hes not thirsty?? Been hot in your state of late. My 16 month old wakes if not every night, every second night for a drink of water from her sippy cup.....i dont mind in these hot months getting up for her, its just once and she goes straight back to sleep.
I can't really relate, but my son did a similar thing when he was about 8mths old. It lasted for about a month and then he was sleeping thru again. I'm not sure if it was a growth spurt, the only way he would settle was if he was given a bottle.
Maybe try and feed him a bit more during the day? Otherwise hopefully it is just a phase and He will get over it soon.

mbear - he could be but yer sippe cup is like awake time to him i think lol? yer its been quite hot here but more humid than anything
catherinemoses - yer jay did it at about that age as well and got over it so hopefully this will stop soon...
DD started getting up for the day at 4am when she was 8 months old (after sleeping through from six weeks). What a shock to the system that was, let me tell you! But yep, same here, lasted about a month and then gradually went back to normal.
Yep my 16 month old is still waking for a bottle at night. Not all night though thank goodness. I am hoping she will grow out of it over time, as we have tried to wean her off it numerous times now.
yer i hoping jay will grow out of it soon... he woke up at 1am last night, and 5am the night b4 so its different each night :s but its pretty quick, the min i give him a bottle hes straight back asleep for about 4-5 hours
