9 month old night weening?

It's normal for babies, at even 9 months, to nurse 2-3 times during the night. They do the bulk of their growing while they sleep, so it's normal for them to need that extra nourishment. If you're having so much trouble, why don't you bring the baby into your room at night so you don't have to exert so much energy at night. I fed my son for 8 months (he weaned himself) and he woke up 3-4 times every night. THen after I switched to bottles and formula he still woke up 2-3 times each night for a bottle. It's normal. I don't think you should make him cry it out when he's hungry.
