8 month sleep regression
Anyone else being absolutely killed off by this sleep regression I thought the four month one was bad but looking back it was EASY compared to this.
This time he’s m:
Not napping, taking forever to go to sleep, off milk both bottles and breast, whining and whining constantly, the separation anxiety not sleeping for long, waking up every hour and staying up for two 😭. Currently posting this at 4am with my last two brain cells still working. He used to wake up every two hours for a feed and to straight back to sleep no issues which was hard at the start but my body had adjusted but this has completely thrown it all off again. Tonight is the first night I had to walk away and take five to calm myself down as I felt myself getting frustrated and I didn’t want to raise my voice at my baby. I’m one tired mama

I’m right here with you… feels like it’s been going on for weeks. I just need to know when it will end!
I’ve taken to cosleeping partway through the night- I can’t cope with the constant up and down alll night. She slept nearly 4hrs straight next to me in bed last night… the first time in weeks she’s slept so long!
he normally comes into bed with me around 3-4AM 🙈
Yes!! I co sleep with my daughter, she turns 9 months on 18th. We had got to a point where she was falling asleep at about 7:30 and waking at 3! Then back to sleep till 6. I couldn’t believe it as she hasn’t been a great sleeper and now she’s up constantly, just moaning and whinging, throwing herself around the bed. Feeding on me… it’s torture. She’s just started nursery so I feel it’s a bit of sep anxiety but when will it end 😟 I go back to work on 2nd June!
