5 month old wakes up 4 times

[Kthibs]

My 5 month old wakes up every night 4 times lately, every 1-2 hours. Any advice for this exhausted mum?

Sorry I haven't got advice, just solidarity! My 3 month old is suddenly doing the same, it's every hour. Hope someone comes along with advice.

Acceptance. My 18mo still wakes up 2-3 times most nights... it is what it is. Some kids just do! My eldest is nearly 5 and she wakes up once a night maybe three times a week.

I think it's genetic. I'm a restless sleeper myself.

Anything you can do to make it easier, do, like co sleeping, having lie ins, nap with the baby.
