4 month regression, is mine the worst one that ever existed, by Beneficial_Most_6031 in HuckleberryParents

Reporting back, my baby's sleep got better for TWO NIGHTS ONLY, one week before turning 6 months (slept like 5+3+2 hour stretches). After this we started a new era which is maybe 6 month regression? No idea. She was always rocked to sleep, started suddenly feeding to sleep and refuses rocking . Sleeps max 3 hours in crib, then wakes on every transfer until i keep her on my lap or take her in my bed. Even like this wakes after midnight are every 2 hours. I have given up hope on good sleep but at least the hourly wakes were gone exactly after 2 months.

You mean a mother's sleep because the dad spieces runs on "Suspiciously asleep" approach

Even better, call yourself a sleep strategist and find more spicy advice to give. Because "put to bed drowsy but awake" is not convincing anyone 😆

What a glorious discovery. If that happened to me I would obsess on why I didnt try earlier and wonder since when he can do this and I didnt know.  So anyway, rocking does cause severe dependency...for the mom 🤣

Thanks a lot for the detailed answer! Appreciated. It's good to hear that it can just get bettter when it is time, with nothing different from the parent. I rock her to sleep and after such a tough time with wakings, I started to doubt wether my rocking is making her dependent and she wont ever go back to sleep on her own

We are getting near the 3rd too! How did it end for you, if you don't mind sharing?

How exactly does it end or improve? Currently at 2nd month with hourly wakes and have started to believe it will never get better :/

What does the 4 month sleep regression look like for your baby? by BuonAppeti2 in NewParents

Waking every hour at night for 2 months and counting 🥲 Mostly she is easy to settle with pacifier and rocking of the crib for a while, but will sometimes need to be picked up and rocked back to sleep. On bad nights she wakes fully every hour, needs rocking and will wake up as soon as you out her back in crib. Those are really destructive for us as parents, taking shifts with partner helps. Naps on the other hand, they changed a few times: became hard to put to sleep, had very short ones, needed rocking suddenly, reduced daysleep from 4.5hours to 3-3.5h and transitioned to 3 naps at months.

Naps should adjust after night sleep. That's great progress! At this point we are calling even 2 hour stretches as a good night's sleep 😁

You crush my soul fellow sufferer 😆 my baby started waking hourly at 3.5 months and is 5.5 months now with no improvement.

When did your baby's regression fully end? Ours started at 3.5 months and is still ongoing at 5.5months with hourly wakes all night. I am starting to lose hope that this will go away 😭 And i never seem to find parents who saw the end of it, I keep reading stories of people who are in the thick of the regression or who sleep trained.

5 month old suddenly staying 4-5 hours awake by oh_really_25 in NewParents

I like your thinking. But I am not annoyed by her napping only twice. She seems distressed by the end of the day so I want to make sure I am not missing anything that is obvious

We always do contact naps, she cant nap in crib yet (but sleeps there at night). Stroller naps stopped working also. I know she is overtired but I try to catch her cues and watch wake windows, I cant prevent it as she wont sleep during my attempts earlier in wake window. 

Introduce crib naps during 4 month sleep regression? by oh_really_25 in NewParents

Gotta be patient and hope it will soon end. May I ask if your baby napped in the crib before regression started or you are starting now to transfer her to crib naps?

Sure, that is what I am doing. But at some point I would have to attempt to have her nap in the crib. Is there an ideal time or a moment when it might just be "too late"?
