4 month sleep regression. Help.
Baby is 5 and half months. She used to sleep 7-7 waking once or twice a night to feed. She is EBF.
Current routine before regression was go to bed at 7pm and she would feed to sleep till 2-3am
Now i take her up at 7pm feed her put her down asleep, immediately wakes up. Goes on the other boob, feeds to sleep. Put her down and she wakes up again straight away. I can be picking her up and putting her down for 3 hours before she finally stays down
The 4 month regression lasted 7 weeks for us. We used to rock to sleep and transfer once he was out cold but he started waking 10+ times a night. I think (not sure for certain) what helped was when I started trying to settle him awake in his crib. It was hard, took about 4 weeks to get there but now he barely needs our help to get to sleep. Still wakes up twice a night for a feed but at least he and I get big chunks of sleep. So I’d say keep to the routine and just start trying to settle her in the crib awake. It’s hard but you got this mama! It will end
