Sleeping through the night yet?!

You are not alone and your friend does not know all the babies in the world.
My baby also wakes up frequently!

My 4 month old sleeps from 8:30pm-5:30am. The last two nights he regressed (4 month sleep regression) and woke up at 11pm-ish, but last night went back to sleeping through the night. It will happen. I breastfeed him about 4 times before bedtime as he tends to clusterfeed and I think that makes him really full and sleep longer. You are not doing anything wrong but being near you he smells the milk and is more likely to wake. I have my LO in a bassinet on my side of the bed and that helps him not smell my milk and keep sleeping.

My son is the exact sameeeee!
He even wakes up in the same pattern.
Few weeks ago e used to sleep like 5 hours or so and i thought oh its getting better but then this pattern happened.

My baby is formula fed and she has always woken up multiple times a night.

Bedtime: 10 (like in bed going to sleep)
Wakes at: 12am, 3am, 5ish and then we get out of bed at about 7 or 8.

If I co sleep it will be bed at 10pm wakes at 4am and then up at 8am

But my baby is only 22nd %tile and only drinks 4oz bottles so basically what I’ve seen and heard is the more your baby starts to eat the longer between bottles they are capable of going to babies who are bigger and can drink a larger bottle wake less.. idk if that makes sense with your babe or not but I’ve seen a progression with mine that the bigger she’s gotten and the more she drinks the less she wakes.

Hello, this may help……My
Son is almost 5 months, but I found what helps him sleep through the night; we start our day around 7am and feed 5 fluid ounces of milk every 5 hours throughout the day….the times my son wakes up in-between feedings I incorporate tons of tummy time stretching, less screen time more social interactions, therefore it keeps there little minds wandering hence tires them out naturally : ) I also find that cluster feeding 0.5 fluid ounces of milk helps them sleep better

Also we used this anti colic baby bed and use muslin cloth swaddles and he sleeps soooo good, like I have to wake my son ups for all his feedings that’s how good he sleeps with it

We bought the bed from Amazon

We have the exact same pattern, around similar times. Bottle fed and have not had one full nights sleep since before about 5 months pregnant 😩😅 I live in hope! We also had a few 5 hour stretches and thought we were getting there then back to every 3 hours at least! 😴

Moving the bedtime earlier might get you more sleep. An ideal bedtime for a four month old is 6:30pm-8pm. My girl goes down around then and sleeps through the night. I nurse her to sleep and slink away. We bed share. She nurses maybe twice a night but usually sleeps through the nursing sesh

The bed also prevents them
From
Rolling too much and help with colic issues : ) it’s been amazing

My baby is EBF and we co-sleep. He wakes up a ton to nurse/soothe as I feel a tooth coming in. Last night he must have work 4 or 5 times. My best friend’s almost 2 year old is still like this. I think every baby is different.
