12 week sleep
My baby is 3 months next week and has gone from sleeping 5-6 hour stretches to waking every 1.5-2 hours.
She’s also started sucking her thumb when she wakes. I don’t know if I should leave her to try and self settle as I’m currently feeding every time but it’s exhausting.
Any advice? I’m really hoping it’s a growth spurt or regression.

The exact same happened to my daughter starting at 12 weeks. It lasted a couple of weeks but has now gone back to how it was thank god as those couple of weeks were tough! Now she is out of it she seems to have developed quite a bit, she did her first roll two days ago and her first giggle yesterday and is much more coordinated with her hands. So I have put it down to a little development leap!! If that’s even a thing 🤣 who knows. But fingers crossed it’s the same for you and you will start to see some exciting changes soon🥹♥️♥️
Also my daughter has started sucking her hands around 12 weeks as well. I started to keep her hands out at night to let her self soothe if she wants but then I’ve found her hands are cold so I don’t know what to do there either 🫣
This also happened to my baby at 12 weeks! She’s now 14 weeks and still waking up every 2 hours and won’t go settle unless i give her the boob. How long does this last😩 she was doing so well up until now giving me 7-9 hour stretches

Sleeping and not waking for feeds.
My baby is 3 weeks old and the last two nights has slept for 5 and a half hours without waking for a feed. I’m waking him up to feed him at this point as I’m panicking he’s gone too long without a feed. Is anyone else’s baby sleeping for this long at a time? Is it normal?

Sleep
My 4 week old will only sleep 40 mins at night before wanting to be breastfed again is anyone else experiencing the same?, after 5/10 mins she’ll fall back asleep and do the exact same, during the day she can sleep for nearly 2/3 why is that ?
She’s both bottle and breast fed my partner gives her bottle at night before bed to give me a little rest
