8 month regression

My god when does this end??? My little boy is going to sleep at 7pm but then waking up around 10pm and screaming the house down and will not settle unless he’s in our bed and I’m cuddling him when he eventually falls asleep he then wakes up a few hours later and the same thing I have to cuddle him for ages I am so tired I feel like a zombie today

Same here 😩 every night the last few nights after a feed it takes 2 hours to get her settled again and back into her cot…just screams every time she goes back down and then is fine again once I pick her back up for a cuddle. I thought we’d been through the 8m sleep regression already but maybe not 😅 also has a tooth cutting through so did think it could be a comfort thing for that 🤷🏼‍♀️ who knows!

Last night was better but we’ve had a bed week! 2 nights ago I gave him paracetamol cause he seemed in pain and my husband and I tried everything to calm him down ! Last night basically slept through so hoping through the worst of it! 🤞 he still has a middle of the night snack but never screams the place down! He’s eating more so I thought maybe stomach pain but then last night he was fine 🤷‍♀️ completely different from my first 😂 hope it ends soon for you!!

This will probably last a month or two longer. My 20 month old was the same - he’s good all night now. His little brother (8 months) is in this phase currently.

Apparently the 8 month regression can last until 10 months 😵 3 weeks in here and struggling!

Same here just cries for no reason but does it with his eyes closed like he's still asleep. It's a tough one for sure. Im barely getting any sleep and neither is he currently

Mines the same, teething as well the whole thing is traumatic 😂🫠😴

Same 🙋🏼‍♀️🥹

Same 🤦🏻‍♀️ baby was sleeping so well and overnight wakes up screaming and only settles when in our bed.

I’m glad I’m not the only one and hope this isn’t a long phase for us all 🤣😂 bloody hell it’s tiring isn’t it!
