My 21 month old has woken on average every 2-3 hours since the 4 month sleep regression. He would start the night in his cot, and the. after around two hours at the start of the night, I would take him into bed with me. He’s still breastfed, and I would feed him during the night...around this age I was planning to night wean gently, through reading him a bedtime story about it.
BUT, very randomly the last few nights, he’s started sleeping through the night in his cot. I don’t know where the hell it’s come from!! I haven’t sleep trained....he’s just suddenly started sleeping.
Is this normal? I decided that despite his constant waking previously, I didn’t want to sleep train, as I felt he would do it when he’s ready and there must be a reason for the waking (eczema, allergies etc)...but going from waking every 2-3 hours (on a good higher) to 12 hours straight is a huge change in less than a week.
Of course I am constantly checking he’s breathing etc now, as it’s so unusual. So still no sleep for mama!
What are your experiences of sleeping through the night?
