Baby kicking mattress

My DD is 5 months old and has always kicked her mattress, it was only ever as she was stirring awake but in last few weeks it is constant. She could be in deepest sleep and still kick. I’m getting next to zero sleep because of it.

my husband sleeps in the spare room as his job is physical and some days dangerous depending on the machinery being worked on and i don't want him being as tired as I am in that type of environment so it’s just me that deals with it.

I’m at my wits end with what to do and not sure how much more I can handle being this tired. I’ve looked at old threads but just wanted to see if anyone had any more updated advice :(

@peachesanddream my baby did this and grew out of it. It's a self soothing thing apparently. One day she did it and the next she did not - about 6 months

Thank you, I do hope she settles soon. I confided in my mum and she has come to spend the night and help me out. Maybe a good night sleep will give me back some sanity!
