Is 6 month regression a thing?
Show your support
@Alica good to know!! I feel like I’m spoiling her with a boob right before a nap, but it hasn’t been a problem until few days ago. I do the same thing before bed, it’s just our routine. This is when she’s hungry. Hopefully this is just a fluke
I’m still trying to figure out how to help her cause she’s all tired and drowsy but refuses to sleep and wants to keep playing but then gets frustrated cause she’s tired
Experiencing the same😭
Currently contact napping with my 6 month old while reading this 😆 it’s the only way to get a full nap in right now
Omg love you ladies! Thank you for all of these responses. I ended up just contact napping with her after 3 attempts. Asleep for 18 min so far 🤞🏻
@Alica silly babies! I don’t give her a binky anymore cus she is not really into it, but maybe I should try again, replaces the boobie
Yes ! 3, 6, 9 months are regressions! It’s a lot. We are going through it too right now and teething doesn’t help! I say keep offering the boob for now. Won’t last forever ❤️🩹
@Holly thank you Holly! We’re not teething yet, can’t imagine what that is like with the regression. I’m sorry!♥️
@Ana ahh lucky! My son has his two bottom teeth already and working on the top two 😅😅 yes soak it all in! I have to remind myself of that too!
@Holly oh wow! That makes me nervous when she does teeth, especially with breastfeeding!
Also, mamas. Do you wake your baby up from a nap or let them sleep if they’re sleeping longer than 2 hours. I tried letting her sleep, but it ruined the rest of the days naps. Maybe it’s just the timing with the possible sleep regression or she’s just sleeping too much, it looks like she needs it.
During recessions, I just do what’s best for them at the time because they truly lose so much sleep so I feel like it’s harder to get back to normal if you wake them especially if they aren’t sleeping well
@Ana and yes it’s painful sometimes but that’s if he’s like GIVE ME THE BEWB hahahaha but most of the time he doesn’t use his teeth ever! So Jo bad. Made me so scared at first hahahah
Sorry my autocorrect is terrible hahaha typing while breastfeeding is hard LOL

@Holly omg good haha, she already uses her gummies to press down on my nipple sometimes, and that doesn’t feel great 😂 Can’t imagine how it would be with teeth 😅
What works for me is starting out the nap with contact napping and then setting my son down, I had to do contact naps with my firstborn too because she slept better. At first it was frustrating but then I just decided that was my rest time too and honestly it was such a good cuddle time with her. I felt like I was always going to have to contact nap with my oldest but she takes 2 hour naps now by herself in her room. Now Im doing the same with my son haha
@Rachel That’s what I’ve been doing but recently, I put her down and she wakes up
Trust me that’s how my girl is rn
