Bedtime

I am in desperate need of help getting my april baby to sleep through the night again. From 1 month old to 6 months old he would sleep all night long no issues. He is exclusively nursing & constantly wakes up to nurse every 2 hours at night, sometimes sooner. He eats 3 meals a day on top of nursing 6+ times a day, i have tried to rock him back to sleep instead of offering milk , he will go back down but then be up again within an hour or so, ive tried to let him cry for 5-10 min to himself, i just dont know what else to do to help both of us get good sleep anymore. Any tips , advice welcome 🤗

Did frequent wakes start when starting weaning?

There is a hellish 8-9 month sleep regression, for us it was the worst one ever. Safe cosleeping may be the option until this rough patch passes

@Alice I think so!

@CeeCee i have definitely tried to co sleep, he is so use to his crib and doesn’t like to be in bed with me unless he’s eating 😅

@Brittany in that case I would trial no carbs and going slower with introducing them as they are really difficult to digest and can cause a lot of discomfort and frequent wakes

I’m going through the exact same thing with my April baby! I’ve tried everything idk what else to do. I’m so extremely tired I absolutely feel your pain girl😅

My Son (April 1st baby) has never slept through the night always got up 3-4 times per night, but since just before Christmas it has been 8-9 times per night, I am absolutely EXHAUSTED, and due back to work next month! I am dreading this 😭😭

Does he take a paci? Does he sleep in his own room? Do you have a partner? Sorry so many questions lol trying to gauge so I can figure out how to help!

@Julia hes never wanted a paci, i have tried. He sleeps in our bedroom in his crib, i do have a partner and we have been taking turns trying to figure out what works for him to get him to sleep were just both struggling.
