hi! i had the same issue..the cause is 'sleep association '..please stop breastfeeding your baby to sleep..i.e.. ensure you feed /breastfeed your baby and put him on bed when he is sleepy but not slept(he should know that you have put him on the bed)..its going to a challenge in terms of crying for first few days... keep a routine during baby sleep time..like a warm bath/sponge bath /massage / reading pictorial book/feeding .. kids love consistency .

your baby may have got used to drinking milk for sleeping... now, two hourly feed is not required... instead of feeding everytime he wakes up, try to pat him to sleep....

Ok shivani that's good u already started with semi solid. It seems he is hungry at night, so give FM at night . I followed the same thing at 6 months, in a day I gave BM, FM, semi solids and at night BM plus FM. Try this out. Shivani whenever u feel that ur breast is empty at that moment give FM.
