Night settling vs bedtime settling: what is the difference?

Today I answer the following question:
“Why is night settling different from naps? Got a 5mo who behaves differently settling for day naps and night wakings. He self-settles for nap time and bedtime, doesn’t use a dummy just has a comforter. Night wakings are a different story! Last night he woke every 1.5 hours, usually it’s every 2 hours and won’t be settled by hand on chest, wobbling, dummy or comforter. He only wants to nurse, so I feed him. I’m so aware he doesn’t need that many feeds, but I’m so tired I’ll do anything to go back to sleep!”
