My little girl turns 6 months on the 19th June …this week in particular we’ve had to rock her to sleep for day time and night time sleep , I was trying to transfer her to cot but this can’t be rocked so we’ve kept her in the next to me …just wondering if anyone is going through similar ? Is this a phase ?

We have found sleep an issue since he turned 6 months last week. Naps seem okay so we have kept him in his nursery cot for that but nighttime is so broken we haven't bothered trying to transfer to his cot yet 🤦🏻♀️ I didn't know about the 6 month one but it seems to be a thing 😭 hoping its short lived. He has changed loads recently, a lot more vocal and reaching for more and more things so think it might be related to new skills

I have a feeling it may be as my little boy struggled to go to sleep last night and we had to rock him, whereas usually he just goes off on his own. It took a good few attempts for him to actually go to sleep and then at 1am he woke for a bottle and didn't go back to sleep till 3am. He is 6 months on the 20th! Let's hope it's short lived 🙏🏻 😬

Research wise I think the 4 month regression is the only one with lots of documented evidence but anecdotally yessssss I have had a regression at this age with both of mine and have heard loads of people say the same thing.

There’s a growth spurt at 6 months which would coincide x
