Bianca started sleeping thru the night from about 3mths old - now for the past week she has been going to bed around normal time 2000/2030 than waking up between 2300-2400 and than again at 0300 and again at 0600 - is this normal for her to be getting up so often again? Its like have a newborn baby all over again!
Yep, it's the magic 4 month mark. Lots of babies change when they hit 4 months. DS2 became unsettled and his night sleep went out the window. I had BF'ing probs with DS1 at the same age, he seemed hungrier and I couldn't keep up. It does pass! By 5 months DS2 was sleeping through the night again.
I think they become more aware of the world around them at 4 months old and it can disrupt their sleeping or feeding.
Yep, 4 month overnight waking and feeding (2 - 3 am) happened here too .
The next magical month - well not a time as such, but when they start to crawl etc - they can be a bit restless and start waking again unsettled trying to move around - you would think it would be the other way around, using more energy and exhausted .....
Zander is back to going bed at night around 7- 8pm and earliest he wakes for a feed is 4.30ish (still b/f though so empty quicker) - but now 6.30 is the norm.
Sami - i would of thought that when they start to crawl etc that they would be more exhausted also! bugga!!! LOL
Liz - noooooo not still waking at 16mths!!!!
Im begining to think that the only time i will get to sleep thru the night again is when Bianca starts school or becomes a teenager and dosent want to get up! LOL
Also Bianca dosent sleep AT ALL during the day - is that normal/okay?
The only time she will nap is when we are out and thats either in the car or the pram and than its only for about 5-10mins!
so i would of thought come bed time she would be exhausted but nope!!!!
