5 month old is fussy ALL THE TIME

[PeppaPig4Tea]

Please tell me this gets better!?

My five month old baby (2nd) is fussy all day. Sleep has gone to pot. Wakes up before 5am, taking 30 minute naps. Where's my happy little baby gone?

Solidarity? Tips? Anything, anyone?

O meant to say wakes up before 6am... at least that's something. Although it was 5am today.

I think this is really common at 4-6 months. This explains it pretty well:

It’ll pass as they become more physically able.

Thank you, that was a great read. Hopefully in a few more weeks we'll be out of the trenches.

@PeppaPig4Tea how are you doing now?

Hi @TolkienLover , thanks for checking in! Oh my goodness, big improvements. I think with all the developments in the last month or so, rolling around a lot and sleeping really well in his own room, he’s become so much more content! We’re at a good stage just now! Just in time for mat leave ending in a short while 😂😭

@PeppaPig4Tea that's great to hear! Glad you're out of the trenches :)
