Anyone have any positive sleep stories?

Can’t say I have a for sure answer but I have a friend whose son just could not stay asleep. She took him for a sleep study and found out he had low iron. They added iron supplements and he started sleeping through the night. Maybe talk to your pediatrician about testing for low iron and seeing if that helps.

I’m having the same issue so following along!

I was told it could be because separation anxiety peaks at this time!

She said she had to get a referral from their doctor. He wasn’t on formula though. I’d think formula would have enough.

My daughter is a champion sleeper and deserves an award. I'm concerned sometimes how long she can sleep but developmentally she fine so I don't worry. She's doesn't have a strict schedule but she follows one. Sleeps in the afternoon if she wants a nap but not always and is in bed by 8pm or 10pm. Sometimes she'll wake at 6am for a bottle and goes back to bed but usually she wakes around 9 or 10am. I pay attention to her waking cues so I know when she needs sleep. I also raised my sister's kids. 2 out of 3 and they all slept through the night too. There is hope. I feel bad when I hear these stories because sleep is important. After the infant stage of constant feeding I thought I wasn't gonna get sleep but I did. I hope you both get the sleep you deserve. Have you ever added a little porridge in his bottle before bed? A night time routine helps with the night wind down. I also keep low lights in all the rooms to transition to sleep mood.
After reading your last reply definitely check with the pediatrician.

My son is almost 14 months. Up to 10 months he was waking up almost every 2h. My husband did sleep training which helped a lot. My son slept through the night at almost 1year old. Right now he has a bunch of teeth coming, so he wakes up 1x 2x a night.

In my experience, I feel like some babies will sleep on their own when they are ready lol because we did sleep train twice and it got better until it didnt. And one day magically he just decided to sleep through.

Mine is 14 months. He’s been quite a good sleeper in general. I also recommend sleep training. I had to sleep train him and moved his cot to a separate room at 5months because he’s a very noisy sleeper (Slams his legs repetitively on the mattress really hard to fall asleep!). We also weaned off his dummy at 6 months after noticing he used it as sleep association. When he’s teething he would wake up screaming nearly every hour. We gave him Calpol and that was the only thing that helped him to sleep for longer stretches.

We used to dream feed him until 11 months old because we didn’t want him to wake up in the middle of the night hungry, we also changed his nappy so it doesn’t becomes over full in middle of the night. When he’s 13 months old he gradually drank less of his bottle after dinner and no more dream feeding so we just make sure he wears a fresh nappy before putting to sleep.
