Also i am a great believer in controlled crying if its possible. Not everyone likes it and not all babies get on with it, but there is that and i think some of the other ladies on here have done the "put down" method - though i don't know a lot of that as CC worked so well for us!

I was wondering too if they know how tp settle themselves, when lo wakes and doesn't need feeding, her dummy works to help her re-settle.
Unfortunately babies go through lots of growth spurts during thier first year, this could be one of them - I think someone told me ost of the 4th month is a growth spurt! If they are breastfed then growth spurts can be more noticable.
