15 weeks old waking in the night

We just thought she'd cracked it. Was sleeping 7:30-6:30 mostly. Sometimes till 5 but would then go back off after a bottle. Now she's up at 2/3 again for a bottle then passes back out.

Is this a example of us having to now introduce a 10pm dream feed? I've tried it before and she just gags 😕

My parents had me thirty-[mumble] years ago, I didn't sleep through the night until I was four. They would find the idea that night waking babies are an odd new thing pretty hilarious.

It does sound like the 4-month sleep regression, OP. You're not doing anything wrong, it's a normal developmental thing, but it is brutal on the parents sometimes! I'd just feed her at 2/3 if she's hungry then and try to catch up on your own sleep where you can.

Not to wish ill on the OP (who I suspect won't come back to the thread now) but waking up for one brief feed and going back to sleep doesn't sound like the four month sleep regression and it's also a bit early at 15 weeks. Obviously some babies don't have one at all and so OP could be lucky, but I'd be crossing my fingers and hoping I haven't been too smug too soon for the next few weeks if I were her...

I thought it said 15 months 😂🤷🏻‍♀️

Just wait until sleep regression or teething really kick in and you’re coming on here looking for more advice... doubt you’ll get any with a smug attitude like that 🤦‍♀️

I feel really sorry for the OP. I had two babies that both slept through from early on. I did nothing like dream feeds, controlled crying or anything like that. They just fell into their routine and we went with it. Every baby is different and it doesn't bloody hurt to offer some constructive advice instead of moaning about how easy the OP has it in comparison.

Such a tiny baby still, my 19month old still wakes in the night x

You’re nicer than me. I’m crossing my fingers and hoping she has been too smug etc......

I'm trying to be a bigger person... Trying, not succeeding!
