When does grunting baby syndrome end?
My 6 week old frequently grunts and squirms loudly through most of the night. It’s so hard to even sleep between feeds sometimes as she’s so loud. My partner suggested ear plugs but I’m so scared to not be in tune with her. Please any recommendations and people who’ve said when this passes? The sleep deprivation is awful 😞

My baby was exactly the same! It stopped around 9weeks! She’s so much better now! 💗
Mine started to get better from around 7 weeks and had gone completely by about 10-11 weeks. So there is light at the end of tunnel i promise! Me and my partner would take it in turns to sleep in a room with her (so the other could get some sleep in peace!) which really helped get us through.
Ah I'm so in this stage with my 7 week old boy. It's brutal eh! Even if he's not grunting he's kicking me or getting me with the flailing arms! No words I'm afraid just support and following for any tips! I've thought the same about ear plugs! Good luck xxx
Thanks @Lorna - you too! xx

I wear earplugs because my baby was keeping me awake all night. I still wake up when he needs me. My body is used to when he gets up so I automatically wake and he gets a little bit noisier, but he doesn’t get to the crying stage of needing me without me already hearing him. You need rest too! 💕
