Everyone warned me 4 months would be horrendous. In hindsight it passed relatively without incident. DS is 8 months and is all over the place. He's tired and cranky all day, he has frequent wakings at night. Sometimes he'll whinge a bit and eventually go back to sleep, sometimes he'll end up trying to crawl down his cot and gets stuck so screams the house down until i rescue him. His naps are crap - cannot be relied upon and completely inconsistent. Just now he woke after 30 minutes face down, tearful and won't go back to sleep even though he's knackered. I can't catch up on sleep during the day because it's guaranteed that just as i fall asleep he'll wake up.
My DS is usually such a good sleeper so i suppose i've been spoilt/ lulled into a false sense of security.
Anyone else with an 8/9/ 10 month old and care to share?
