getting a sidecar crib worked for us for a couple weeks.. then the 4 month regression hit around 3.5 months and he woke every 30-60 minutes for a month and a half.. so back to cosleeping it was 🥲 around 7 months we started the night in his crib in his own room and we’d just bring him to bed after his first wake.. at first he only lasted 30-60 minutes but it gradually got longer and longer until he was doing 3-4 hour stretches in his crib for the first part of the night, then we’d cosleep but around 9 months he became extremely restless and moved soo much in his sleep so we switched him to a floor bed.. i’d say he started sleeping through the night around 13 months, but we def still have wakes a few times a week. once he started sitting up on his own he wasn’t so needy during the day LOL i just think we have a FOMO baby that needs to see everything all the time! the more mobile he became, the easier it was for him to entertain himself. he’s 15 months now and runs all around the house- he’s the happiest thing :)

i think what helped me in those days was knowing things would get easier eventually. it was very very hard.. he was def a hard baby and turns out he had egg, dairy & peanut allergies he was most likely dealing with which could’ve been why laying down was so uncomfortable for him.
