Sleep and teething
My 5 month old baby sleeps only about 9 hours in the night ( not at a strech, wakes for feedings at least twice). He takes about 3 to 3.5 hours of daytime naps spread across 3-4 naps. Is this alright for his age? He is exclusively breastfed and weight gain is fine.. passes urine fine and stools everyday.. i try to put him to bed after a warm bath and fees at around 7pm but he will just not settle and sleep before 10.30pm... he will fall asleep in my arm and wakes up within 10mins of putting him down. Can you advise a schedule for him?
I think he is teething as well.. is it ok to introduce a teether .if so what kind would be good?
