Hiya,
So at 9 months my DD started a sleep regression - she is now 10 months.
Prior to this she had been sleeping through since 3 months - easy to put to bed and slept through for 12-13 hours straight unless poorly. Naps have never been brilliant but we never worried as she was sleeping so well at night and was cheerful.
Now she is very, very hard to put to bed - lots of rocking, shushing, cuddles etc. She was fall asleep but usually wakes on transition to the cot, or if transition is successful then she'll wake as I try to sneak out! Can take the entire evening to get her settled. She's also waking in the night and is hard to resettle.
I know this is fairly normal at her age and I'm not in a massive stress (I like the cuddles!) but just wondering who else went through the 8-10 month sleep regression and how long it last for (assuming it ended!)? Did you do anything different to help your baby get through it?
I'm hoping things settle down a bit before I go back to work next month, as I'll need the sleep more than I do at the moment... But I guess it lasts as long as it lasts 😊
