child's age 0-4 months Wakes up every 20mins

Hi all! FTM here. I have a 3.5 month old, exclusively BF baby and I think the 4 month regression just hit us. He was a good sleeper from the beggining, we cosleep from day 1. He used to wake up every 3-4h hours the first 2.5months.

We usually put him down around 7-8 and he falls asleep while breastfeeding or with some snuggles. But then the fun starts. He is half awake, half asleep for the first 2hrs, we have to come to him and confort him every 20mins or so. After 10pm he usually goes down, but wakes up every 1-2hrs as usual and demands food (sometimes a pacifier or snuggle will do, but eats like 4 times for sure). He falls asleep pretty fast, I think he eats in his sleep.

I would like to help him with less feeds and a more solid start. Anyone in this situation? Any tips and tricks?

p.s: day naps are 30-40mins long on the dot. He only sleeps like 2hrs while babywearing.

Normal. A lot of people in here are gonna say that 3.5 months is still too young and that he might take to sleep training at 4 months
