9 month old Sleeping troubles!

3 replies

I have a 9 month old baby who sleeps very well early evening i.e 7 - 12 but then can wake up to 4 times in the night around 4 - 5 ish am! As you can imagine / and/or know the feeling, i am constantly knackered.
When I speak to others they say that my child should be sleeping right through now, she only has about 2.5hrs sleep in the day. She is in a very good routine which she has been in since about 4 months old.
Please can you let me know how your children slept/sleep and if I should be doing something else??
By the way she only wakes the majority of the time as she has moved so much in her cot that she is usually stuck sideways!! In my opinion there is not much I can do about that! Has anyone else had the same thing? Would love to hear.
Many Thanks

Currently going through exactly the same, DD (nearly 10 months) is doing acrobatics in her cot every night and then decides that it is so exhausting that she really needs a bit of boob before she starts again. I agree it is totally exhausting, I go back to work soon and I honestly don't know how I will function Sad

I am glad it is not just mine! Yes it is exhausting, I luckily do not have to return to work but I really hope that it works out for you! Surely we should invest in ties to tie her down! haha.

I am actually sat listening to her on the monitor at the moment and it sounds like she is trying to stand up. . . . .Oh great!!!!!!!!

Last night I found her wedged, with her legs right up the sides and her bum in the corner, if I wasn't so bloody tired, it may have being funny Hmm
