my 5 month old wakes twice during the night for a feed,is this normal? he gets tired early so i put him to bed around 6/7pm......but is wide awake at 5am.he drinks 4 bottles of formula during the day (ive just weaned him off breast feeding due to work) and also takes small amounts of solids,any tips would be appreciated,i dont believe in 'crying it out'

maybe you should put him down for naps during the day! and put him down to sleep alittle bit later like maybe 8 or 9! and start him on a schedule

At 5 mos he only has a tiny tummy and probably can't get enough during the day to keep him going all night. Try to get him to eat something - a little baby rice perhaps - before bed time and it might last him a bit longer. In a couple of months - I know that seems like forever right now - he'll be eating more and will sleep through for 12 hours a night.
