Hello, my little boy is 4 months and has recently had a huge change in his sleeping patterns and also his feeding, napping and moods! I've read about the 4 month sleep regression and I'm just wondering if anyone else has experienced this?
He was eating 210ml every 4 hours (formula exclusively since birth) and was sleeping a good 5 hours before waking for a bottle then another 5-6. He's now become extremely fussy, waking all night every 10-20-30 mins crying, drinking only 70-100ml with each feed 3-4 hours apart and randomly breaks out crying uncontrollably, the kind he did when he got his first vaccinations (heart breaking!)
My husband and I are at our wits end, if it's something we need to wait out then maybe we can come up with a few solutions between us to try and make this easier on ourselves, but I can't help thinking we are doing something wrong and he is suffering because of it :( he's our first baby and it has been a very rocky ride since the pregnancy
He's such a happy baby and always has been but has gone through a small stage of colic, acid reflux, 5-6 colds and is most likely teething already.
Any advice or even experiences of others would be so helpful, sometimes it's just nice to know others are going through the same thing even if there is no solution!! Thank you x
