Hi all
I have started sleep training my baby, he is 6 months on Sunday but he wakes exactly at the 30 min mark and i’m unsure why?
His schedule is 2/2.5/2.5/3
The first night he went down in 45 mins, and slept for about 2.5 hours.
The second night he went down in 13 mins and slept for 30 then stirred and I just went in and patted his bum for 5 seconds and he fell back to sleep for another hour.
Last night he took 35 mins to sleep, woke after 30 mins exactly i tried to leave him for 5-10 mins to see if he would resettle but he wouldn’t so i went in and just patted his bum and shushed him for a min but it did nothing and he cried for another hour, fell asleep for 2 mins then woke crying again.
The feed ends 30 mins before bed.
Any advice or thoughts to stop the 30 min wake? He is EBF, coslept since birth and contact naps only. His naps are roughly 1hr , 1.5hr then 30 mins. He usually wriggles at 30 min mark for naps and I can normally just pat his bum and he will fall back to sleep or sometimes he wakes up fully.
Thank you any help is greatly appreciated.
