Why won’t my baby sleep?! 😫

I don't have any advice but came to say I'm glad I'm not the only one. Since the 4 month regression my baby woke 5-6times a night but now its every 30-60mins and like yours, she wakes as soon as shes in the cot. Some nights i dont sleep at all til 7am when someone else can take her for a bit. No idea what to do and I'm beyond shattered 🧡

Also came to say I could have written this myself. Up every hour at least once and she only wants the boob so having to also do it all alone. Feel like we never came out the 4 month regression although I didn’t think there was much to regress from!

It’s nice to hear I’m not alone, but not nice that we’re all going thru it!! I felt like we had dodged the 4 month regression, but I’m starting to recognise it’s actually just been a gradual worsening for weeks now!!

I felt like I could just about get by with 3 wakings a night when I knew her first sleep would be around 4 hours, but now I don’t even get that 😢

Yep my baby wakes every hour too. He even refuses the bed and wants to sleep on top of me or in my arms as he does for his feed.

This last 3 weeks for me, but is slowly going back to before! Hope it does for you soon. Hang in there!

May I suggest temporarily co-sleeping ? Lullaby trust have published materials on how to do it safely and trust me.. you and little one will get a lovely long stretch of well needed rest xx

As Robyn said - I think co-sleeping saved me for a very sleep deprived miserable 6 months. We had a regression at 6 weeks and sleep is the main struggle for us but since we co sleep it's much easier. There was that period where she would wake more frequently and would be attached to the boob almost all morning but at least I don't have to get up and walk around with her. Although those frequent wakings are still difficult I managed to get some sleep.

I tried cosleeping last night bc of this, my baby slept way better but i was too anxious about the duvet or pillow smothering her to get any sleep still 🤦‍♀️

we had been Co-sleeping for a couple of weeks when staying with my in laws and it did make a massive difference, however at their house we were sleeping in a super king sized bed and had plenty of room. At home we’re only in a double and there’s really not enough space for me to feel safe (unless I kick my partner out 🤭) I was worried I’d made the situation worse by co-sleeping while we were away, but I think it would be bad regardless.

I’m also going through the same thing my LG used to wake 2/3 times a night until 4 months now it’s gone down hill. She used to do one longer stretch at the begging of the night and then the odd 2 hour wake up, now getting woken up 45 minutes- 2 hours. But the second I get her out of the cot and feed her she will happily sleep.
I have had the same thoughts about trying co sleeping but with a double bed it also scares me. She usually does the odd hour in the morning in our bed but I don’t feel I go into a really deep sleep at this time.
It’s really nice to know I’m not alone, just feel like I don’t even know what I’m doing anymore, not knowing how long this is going to last is painful.

My little one is the exact same, major developmental leap and growth around 6 months,
I co sleep with her, kicked partner to the sofa, cause I can't deal with his snoring and scooting up to me during night feeds, I use a cotton sheet, less heavier and thicker than a duvet, only have it up to my hips, I use her nursing pillow as my pillow as I can kinda tuck most behind my back, makes the freqent night wakes easier instead of up down all night, we've been like this for 6 weeks now :(
