    sorry to be the bearer of bad news but i think thats pretty normal. My DD is 1 and i still go into her at least once a night (on a good night) sometimes more. They all do it in their own time and as long as you are consistent with his bedtime routine etc he will only get better

    Sorry, no advice but letting you know you're not alone.

    We co-sleep with our 17 month old and he has NEVER (and I really mean never, not once) slept through the night without a breastfeed. The longest he went was 6 hours from 11pm to 5am one night.

    I know that isn't much help, but I think it is reassuring to know sometimes that you're not alone and your baby is VERY normal.

    you are doing a great job it is very normal for your baby to still wake for feeds overnight.

    Sounds pretty normal!

    DS is 15 months and still wakes up at least twice, in the last few months it's gone down to that from about 5-6 times a night so he's growing up and sleeping for longer periods at a time.

    It's very hard to sleep when you're hungry, and near impossible for a baby!

    My DS is 19 months and he sleeps at 730 - 8 but seldoms sleeps through the night ... if we are lucky he will but that happens occasionally sometimes he would wake up and want water sometimes even he doesnt know what he wants ... i know its hard but you are not alone and pretty sure a lot more people are on the same boat. Not to scare you or anything my nephew is 7 and he sometimes still wakes up once a night... they'll grow out of it hopefully...
