4 month sleep regression

Evening all,

Has anyone had a similar experience...
LO is 4 months and one week.
For the last few weeks she will wake up 40 mins after being put down at night. Most of the time she will only settle if I put her back on the boob for like 2 mins then she’s asleep again. Fast forward another 40 mins and she’s back up again.
I gather she’s waking after a sleep cycle and can’t self settle back to sleep. Do you think this is the 4 month sleep regression or something else?

She usually wakes twice and then will sleep a 5-6 hour stint.
On a good night she’ll wake just the once and on the rare occasion she won’t wake at all after being put down.

Yeah sounds like sleep regression, you just have to totally wing it at this stage, go with the flow, try anything (within reason) to help you all get some decent rest. They will go through many regressions but the 4 month was one I fondly rememberBlush we did anything, rocking, taking late night walks, you name it we did it, dont worry about creating bad habits they can be broken down the line. My lo is 10 months and we are still alive so dont worry your lo will start to sleep better again. Best of luck op!
