Thank you for your advice. The support really helps. He doesnt have an ear infection and he doesnt seem to have pain from teething. I stuff him with rice cereal and milk before bed. Doesn't seem to help too much. I've started making him stay up from about 5-10 pm (10 is bedtime) so he'll be really tired and it helps a little. He still wakes up a lot though, just sleeps for a little bit longer incriments of time. I really think he's just spoiled- used to nursing EVERY time he wakes up. I think I will gradually let him cry for short amounts of time and build up to longer time if possible as many of you suggested. It is hard though. You're comments and support really make me feel better about it. Thank you. Feel free to continue to give advice, I can always use it!
