Is anyone else going through a sleep regression at 8 months close to 9 months?? Baby is only napping for maybe an hour in the daytime if I’m lucky and is staying up maybe around 2 hours past her bedtime which is pretty tiring. We are also dealing with congestion issues at night 💔I thought the regression would be much later when she starts to crawl/walk? Is this a normal timeframe?

My daughter was born in August and she is doing the same thing with sleep, hardly napping and staying up later. But she's already been crawling and will be walking soon so I can't really say for sure if those things are correlated or not

Ohhhh I thought I was going crazy confused on why he’s not sleeping at his usual bedtime even though our days hasn’t changed he just started crawling and sitting up on his own and I know that they say when the babies learn new skills they struggle to sleep so maybe that’s why

Yes. My son born in August is also taking shorter naps and going to sleep later .. I was really lucky before he was going to sleep around 7:30 now it’s 930 or 10 but still waking up pretty early (most mornings by 630 or 7)

Yes, my baby is 9 months old and she is not sleeping well at night, also her naps are all over the place, and separation anxiety.
My girl learned how to sit up and is currently stuck in the pre-crawling phase where she rocks back and forth on her hands and knees. It’s adorable but wow she goes crazy with it at 9pm when she’s supposed to already be asleep by 7:30 😭 you’d think she’d get tired and sleep in during the early morning but she still wakes up bright and early regardless

Yes mine is all over the place he is not sleeping well at night, doesnt want to be put down either. Schedule all to heck
I’m glad I’m not alone everyone! The change basically happened overnight and the lack of sleep is getting to me 🥲

My son is 8 months, will be 9 months on the 14th and is doing the exact same thing pretty much. Nap times are honestly a toss up. Sometimes he sleeps for 20-30 minutes other times it could be an hour or 2. Sometimes he fights naps and doesn't end taking one until much later. Bed time is sometimes struggle and he will fight it and stay 2 hours or so past his bedtime. He's learned to crawl, learning to stand up on his own and take a few steps and getting the 2 bottom front teeth all at the same time so it's been a little crazy lol.
