My little one fights every single nap and bedtime is just a nightmare. I know it’s just a phase but we are struggling. He needs rocking to sleep and white noise on but then you put him down and he is wide awake. Or if he doesn’t wake up, 2 minutes later he is rubbing his face which is waking him up. He does settle most of the time if I put my hand over his face but it doesn’t last long. He isn’t waking for food as he refuses it when I offer and takes it every 3-4 hours.
I have tried putting him down drowsy but awake to try get him to learn to self soothe so he can do it during the night but it just ends up in him waking himself up even more and crying and then it take us another hour to settle in and get him to sleep again 😭. During the day he just naps on us or the pram as it’s the only way he will actually get some sleep.
I have googled and probably tried everything and nothing is working so just currently sticking to a routing hoping he will get used to it eventually but it’s so tiring having to comfort him every 30 mins - it seems that he can’t get into a deep sleep. 2 hours of uninterrupted sleep sounds like a dream!
Just wondering if anyone has any tips or advice of how they got through the 4 month sleep regression? I miss the newborn stage 😂😂
