Our 5-month-old wakes up four to six times a night. Sometimes he's not even hungry -- he just wants us to comfort him. How can we get him to sleep through the night?

Try and keep the baby up and lively during the day. This will help him to have a sound sleep during the night hours. Also, try to keep a soft toy or a pillow by his side to make him feel comfortable and secure so that he does not wake up looking for a familiar touch.
