Regression

Yeah what is it what’s going on?? He used to sleep 7-7 no problems. Last night he wouldn’t go to sleep then up at 9.30 then me and my partner tag teamed at about 1-2am. I googled and it says it can be a development thing or separation anxiety or maybe more teeth?

@Stef same here, she’d sleep 7:30-7:30 and now she’s even fighting naps. I was up 1:15-3 then 5-6:30. It’s actually a pain xx

I know I was so confused I was all like oh this is getting a bit easier isn’t it and settled with sleep we’re not too stressed but nope feels like we’ve gone backwards! Also I want to stop breastfeeding when he’s 1 in a couple of weeks but it’s such a good way to resettle them 😭 what do we do?! I’ve read just carry on with good routines, I hope this one doesn’t last long!

Yep us too he's done this everyone and then since he's been born though then we will get lured back into a false sence of relaxation where he will sleep well and then boom he's starts waking up and staying awake from about midnite to about 3 am 🙈

Haha theres always something round the corner isn’t there 🤣 they tease us with good nights then take them away 🤪

My boy went from waking twice in the night, to waking 5 times 😭 he was being proper grumpy during the day as well. I found out it was his teeth, they were really bothering him, and apparently they can have a sleep regression/leap at this point as well! xx

Yeah we think maybe more teeth too as he’s chewing his fingers a lot we’ve been giving bonjella and calpol before bed but it doesn’t seem to have helped arrrrr hopefully it won’t last long but I just keep comparing it to the 4 month sleep regression I actually thought I was going to die 🤣💀 so as long as it doesn’t get that bad! X

@Stef omg the 4 months was a different kind of beast 💀 fingers crossed it doesn't last long for you! We've just seen that he's gone from 4 to 7 teeth lol so that's probably why he's been so whiney!! 😂
