Sam,
I was wondering how your child initially falls asleep? I had a problem with my now 4 year old daughter not falling asleep without us rocking her, and she would wake a couple of times per night until we used the Ferber method which worked like a miracle...however, now my 5 1/2 month old son,who will fall asleep in his crib by himself continues to wake about 4 hours after falling asleep, and frequently thereafter.
Initially, I would get up and nurse him, but now that he is eating solids, I don't think he needs to eat at night. I have let him cry, going to him periodically to reassure him that he's not alone, but he just continues to bellow. He is the easiest going child during the day, but a real challenge for us. Until recently, he slept with me, but has made a nice transition to the crib. When he was with me, it was similar...sleeping intially for a good stretch, but then very figdity and restless the rest of the night.
I wonder if it is the same for you?
