First time Mum here losing the world to live! My little boy is nearly 5 months old and we are very fortunate that he’s slept through the night since he was 12 weeks old.
HOWEVER……this weeks sleep has hit us like a ton of bricks. He’s waking nearly every hour in the night whining and fussing. He doesn’t appear hungry, he just wants his dummy or some comfort. He will go back to sleep then he wakes again 30 minutes later. We are absolutely exhausted so I just wanted to be sure this sounds like the so called 4 month regression! I’ve spoken to parents and in-laws but they’ve never heard of the regression. I’ve been using the wonder weeks app but technically we should be out of leap 4 by now.
Any survival tips? Will my baby sleep again?! We have been tempted to move him into his own room/cot. I know the guidance is 6 months but he’s just so big in his next to me crib and I can’t help but think we are also waking each other up. Or, he’s banging against the sides.
Hes so grouchy in the day as well and seems so unhappy 🙁 I suspect he’s more tired than usual?
Please tell me it gets better!
