Bub is 5.5 months old and ever since Turing 4 months the longest overnight stretches of sleep we get is 2-3 hours, throughout the whole night and he wants to feed every wake up ! Do feeding multiple times a night !
We have never had him sleep through, prior to 4 months he would do an initial stretch of 5 hours and then wake every 2-3. That was manageable but I’m struggling at the moment! The nights are long 😫 what is your experience since the 4 month mark ??

My LO is 6 months and still not sleeping through. He has solids in the afternoon (dinner time) and feeds before bed. He is breastfed and he starts off in his cot but we spend the rest of the night co-sleeping. He is my 5th child, so I honestly don’t even remember waking to feed anymore, I just flop it out and go back to sleep while he feeds. Rest assured, it’s pretty normal from my experience for them to wake multiple times a night to feed.

In the same boat with my bub about the same age. As with some of the others, we end up cosleeping as that's the way I can get sleep, waking every couple of hours just doesn't work for my brain. I've been told when they are ready they will sleep through, when that is differs. Good luck from another tired momma!
