Is it ok for my 5 mths old baby to cry through the night? I

Hi, it's v normal for baby to wake up many times a night. Sometimes it is growth spurt and at 5 months he could be teething too so it can make for a more restless baby and looking for comfort. Use a pacifier is the easiest but it's up to u. To lower chances of waking, trying giving both milk and a dinner before sleep (cereal or night cereal) - so that they can last slightly longer. 5hrs continuous is considered sttn by the way. 10-11h is really v rarely and if he can't then don't force him. My boy also comfort latch - consider co sleeping if possible - saves me from keep going to his cot. My boy 8months now and yes we did have a few of those keep waking phase
