Isn't it just glorious waking up BEFORE your baby???

My little one went through 2 weeks of being up EVERY HOUR to steadily going back to normal. We're back at twice a night now! (See previous post)

Last night he slept 7:00-11 then 11-4(!!!) then didn't wake until 7!

I feel like a new woman today. No point at ALL in this post but I just wanted to share 😂🙈

Enjoy a peaceful coffee by yourself. Brew
Give him plenty exercise today and outdoor fresh air too to wear him out for this evening.

I'm frantically thinking of every single second of yesterday to see what I did to repeat today 😂.

Had a lovely hot drink AND A SHOWER then little one woke up full of beans, ready to play 😀😀😀

Congratulations! My little one is currently on hourly wake ups and I'm totally lost as to whether I need to actively do something or ride it out. I'm an exhausted wreck!

How old is s/he?

Mine is coming up to 8 months and I've heard it's common around then due to some sort of development. I thought I was going to go mad but the last week or so we seem to be back on track... hang in there!!!

She's 5.5 months and has honestly never been a good sleeper but was starting to do more 3/4 hour stretches rather than her newborn 2 hours. We even had a couple of 5 hours and then BAM we now think it's good if she manages 1.5 hours! I just feel as though I'm getting everything wrong Confused

Do we have the same child? 😂😂

Mines always been a "up 3 times a night" baby... two times at best.

Around 4/5 we had a horrific time which died off around 6 months then it went to pot again a few weeks back. We're all doing our best! Remember that 😀😀
