Bad sleep 8.5 months

For past month our 8.5 month old is waking every 1.5-2 hours overnight needing either long settle or feeding to fall back asleep. I’m exhausted, does this sound like the leap 6/8 month regression? How long did it last for your baby? 😩

I’ve been having the same problem with my 9 month old. It started about a month or so ago. It is extremely exhausting. I have always rocked him to sleep and he would sleep 8-9 hour stretches. He started waking up more when he was teething and I think separation anxiety has set it. We’ve been trying the cry out method the last 3 nights. We just let him cry for 5 mins then go in and settle him in the cot. He’s been sleeping for about 6 hours straight. He still wants a feed after he wakes up but it’s better than every hour or so.
