My son is almost 8 months old. He's still not sleeping through the night and he's taking maybe 30 minutes 45 minute naps. I'm lucky if I get him to take a 2-hour nap. Hell I'm lucky if I even get one nap a day. At night he'll wake up crying and squirming around and I've tried to take out night feedings but that didn't work out too well. I'm also 10 weeks pregnant and I feel like I'm losing my mind because I'm so tired and exhausted.

What do he before sleeping

We do bath time, last feeding and when he shows signs of being sleepy he goes to his crib to fall asleep on his own. Around 8pm. Then he wakes up around 11 drinks 4oz then up at 2/3am then wide awake playing at 5/6am

i’m in the exact same boat as you only i am not pregnant. i feel like i’ve tried everything.

Same here

I know sleep regressions are pretty common around this age when i’ve spoke with other moms. My son is coming in on 8 months in a week and he is starting to wake up around 4-5am wide awake and wanting to play. Sometimes he’s squirmy starting @1am before waking up around 4 and then not going back to sleep until 6am. From birth he actually slept well through the night barely waking up but a few times to feed, so this is new for him and just started within the last 2 weeks.
Everyone’s baby is different so if there is anything to be concerned about you should just simply talk to your child’s health provider :)

Mine is the same right now😭
I’ve been searching far and wide for some advice and all i’m seeing is it depends on if they are getting too much or too little daytime sleep
so i’m going to try a new routine tomorrow to see if it helps😭

I'm in the same boat... its exhausting and I don't know what else to do 😭

My girl is doing the same thing right now and it's driving me crazy. She will only stay asleep and nap if we contact nap all of a sudden.

My baby was the exact same way up until last week. Only thing I’ve done different is consistently offer more solids each day. So 3x, dinner is around 5/5:30pm. He gets 6oz bottle around 7:30pm then I put him to sleep. I think he’s more full so he doesn’t wake up for middle of the night feedings. It might have nothing to do with feedings though. Is he teething?

Same here, my mom said to feed the baby at night. I think I might try that. She told me to give her apple sauce or something similar with baby oat meal (I don’t have any so I might just use some baby rice)

Well my son’s doctor said that baby’s who are getting older get different sleeping schedule kinda like baby puberty so when my son was about 4 -5 months is sleeping schedule and feeding times were all over the place and it started to settle down as he hit 6 months his doctor also said that he can go without eating at night for 8 hours if he wanted too naps for him depends if he’s really tired maybe 2 hours but usually it’s like 30 minutes I think it’s pretty normal maybe ask the pediatrician maybe he or she has to say about it

Same issues here...I have twins and thankfully I only have the issue with 1 of them.
