My 8 month old is being extremely fussy recently. Doesn’t want to be put down, but then when I pick her up and sit down wants to get down. Only happy when I am stood up with her. Whinging most of the day. She’s getting up more during the night. I’m absolutely shattered. Is anyone else in the same boat? She has two bottom teeth. Unsure if she’s teething and can’t feel anything but red cheeks and snotty nose.

Sleep regression. My 5 month old who would previously give me a 6 hour stretch of sleep has started waking every 2 hours. Doesn’t want to be put down. Acting like he’s teething. He’s got no teeth yet. Naps suck.
All the things we seem to have gotten down and corrected went in the toilet 3 days ago ofc when I start my new job

my daughter is almost 8 months old and they have a growth spurt around this time. i’m going through the same thing. she’s waking every two hours to nurse, she’s extra clingy, screams if i put her down and it’s not her idea lol.

Same! My son is 7 months and I feel like he’s been a lot more fussy they usual. He normally sleeps through the night but has been waking up and same for his naps. I do see teeth coming in so I’m assuming it’s from teething. He’s been more clingy to and wants to held more often and cry’s as soon as I put him down. The only thing that works for me right now is his baby walker but that only keeps him entertained for so long😭😪 Hang in there mama it’s only temporary then our babies take their full naps🫶

My son just turned 9 months but same he’s been more so at night like he wants me but when I pick him up he wants to get down so I put him down but then he throws himself back and I can tell he’s tired but he won’t go to sleep he’s fighting it and I don’t know how to help him and im getting frustrated bcux I’m tired and idk what else to do to help him he still doesn’t sleep thru the night either
