My Five Month Old Only Sleeps Two Hours

Posted by Sleepless on February 13, 2002 at 13:58:56:

I really need help. My five month old will only sleep for two hours or less. She wakes up hungry every time. I give her a warm bottle before she goes to bed and she seems to be full, but in two hours she is howling for another bottle. She never finishes the bottle. She drinks a little and falls back to sleep. Then in two hours we do it all over again. I am about to go nuts. I don't know if I should just let her cry, or if she is really in need of a drink. If anyone could help me figure out what to do, I would greatly appreciate it.
