i,
It does sound like you are going to have to wean him off needing you again. If every night you are leaving him to cry, then taking him into your room and giving him a bottle, I'd probably go in sooner and offer him a bottle in his room (so first try and cut out the part about getting into your room).
If he is getting himself worked up (won't stop crying sort of thing when you go in), then we've found taking our son out into the lounge for a drink of water with the light on has helped him 'reset', then taking him back to bed in a calmer state.
The 'checking in' method also works well, where you pop in every 2 mins, assure them you are there, wish them goodnight and they need to lie down in bed and try to sleep, and that you'll come back and check in another 2 mins (set a timer!). Works well rather than just leaving them to cry for ages (if that is what he does when you leave), as they can handle the fact you're just popping out for a few mins ('making myself a tea, then I'll be back' sort of thing) - and once they get used to it you just make it a longer and longer period of time (I'll come back in 5 mins, 8 mins, 10 mins...) until finally they are asleep! So they're settling when you are not there.
Good luck!
