EBF and regular night wakes
Show your support
I feel like I'm at my worst age yet. He's about to be 1 and his stretches are consistently 1.5 hours. They were 2 hours as a newborn, and I've had the odd 4 hour but not much. He just needs to know my boob is there in his mouth and he will sleep. It's natural for babies but tiring on us. Boy elephants let the baby suckle for comfort, but human men aren't kind and understanding like that hahah
Nearly 15 month old and the same some nights. Other nights he’ll go longer stretches x
Same exact pattern here except ours was sleeping 7-8 hours before, and then started doing hourly (sometimes even more frequent) wakes. She hasn’t grown out of it at 12 months old now.
A few things that help with not being so touched out - sleep in a separate room when you go to bed and keep baby monitor on - if baby is having a hard time transitioning to deep sleep (usually morning hours), I call my husband over to rock her after I nurse her - ask husband for a small massage when you’re feeding baby back to sleep
Same
Ours was the same and then she grew out of it - from memory it was around six month mark.
