Ted used to sleep from 8-5am from the age of 8 weeks till about 16 weeks, then suddenly he started waking 2/3 times a night. For the past month, it seemed to get worse, he'd wake crying about 4 times, but i'd pop his dummy in and back to sleep - however this was getting me down, as he's in his own room, so 'popping his dummy in' was actually a trip to his room...needless to say the broken sleep was getting to me. 
So i wondered about weaning him off the dummy, i think i read that coreysmummy had the same problem (hope i'm right) and she inspired me to give it a go, the first day night was hell, but its got better and better...although he does still have it in the day as its the only thing that will soothe his teething (he chews it!). But at night... no dummy
He only woke 2 times, cried a little but settled himself.
Then for the past 3 days i put Ted on follow on milk (aptimil 3), and AT BLIMMING LAST he has slept right through..no peep out of him till 7am!!!!
So i've had a week of pretty good sleep and OMG do i feel better!!!!
So don't know whether its co-incidence but the follow on milk seemed to help? Just thought i'd share!
