8-9 Month Sleep Regression

My 10/31 babe slept so beautifully from the day she was born up until she was 8 months old. Now she’s waking up 1-3 times a night. We have been going through this for a month and feel like we are stuck.
She even fights going to sleep now 😩

Yes- she’s hitting her milestones, crawling, waving, clapping, pulling herself to stand, she has 2 teeth and so much personality.

Has anyone had a sleep regression last this long? I even tried bottling her before bed instead of nursing her. We tried hatch machine and no hatch. We changed her feeding and bed time to earlier, changed her nap schedule.

Any suggestions or advice?
Thanks for reading this far

It's been since May. My Lindsey will be 10 months Aug. 3rd. I miss sleep. Putting her on a schedule helps, but she still wakes up at least once every night.

I have her on a schedule but I’m not sure what it is. I’m nursing her as I type, not sure if she’s just hungry before bed.

Same here! It’s been a while since she’s slept through the night. We also never sleep trained 🙈 so we rock her and she’ll sometimes resettle herself to sleep. We wait until she’s standing in the crib to go get her cause she goes back down on her own recently

Wanted to update- we decided to try a routine we did when she was much younger and we are so much better now! (I hope I didn’t jinx it)

We give her a cat nap before her bath and bottle.

When do things get easier?

As we entered the 9-12 month stage, my son started crawling and pulling himself up. He also became more clingy and does not play alone, still doesnt sleep through the night, and this week has been sick (so EVERYTHING amplified). I am tired and overwhelmed. Please lie and tell me things get better. 🥺

4 month bed time

What time do you put your babies to bed?
What time do you start your 'routine?'
My LO currently goes to bed around 10.30pm, and I know i need to start bringing it forward. Everytime ive tried, it takes longer for my LO to settle.
We are exclusively breastfeeding. Any advice Mamas?

Colostrum storing?

Has anyone successfully extracted colostrum before the baby’s born? Apparently it gets produced from 16w pregnant and you can start storing it in the freezer but I’m 34w looking at my nipples and the syringes on amazon wondering how it works?? Like what did you use and did it hurt? 🥲

6 month old autistism

My 6 month old makes no eye contact with me and doesn’t respond when I call him. Can this just be a phase or personality trait as apposed to autism

Baby with chronic congestion

Hi everyone! My 1 year has been a congested baby since birth almost. She breathes through her mouth so often that it wakes her up multiple times at night and she cries and screams and then struggles to go back to sleep. She wakes up every 1-3 hours and sometimes can’t go back to sleep for 2-3 hours!!! Piriton is the only thing that seems to help her sleep mostly through the night but I can’t keep giving her that!!
Does anyone have tips as to have I can do or give her? Has anyone experienced? I have no idea when I’ll get an ENT appointment and I have no idea what he can give a 13 mo :( we are desperate for sleep so any tips are welcome!! We have tried steam inhalation, saline drops, vapour rubs and everything off the counter basically!

Combi feeding advice

Has anyone gone from EBF to combi feeding? Currently do one bottle of EBM per night and they one half formula half breast milk mixed in the day. The other times she still feeds on me. Ideally I want to feed all day via bottle and all night with breast. She’s 7 weeks and takes a bottle well, how long should I leave it before adding another bottle to her daily routine?
