Sleep regression? Reflux? Why won't my baby sleeeep?

Question

My baby girl is 12 weeks old and for the last week at least she has been sleeping terribly through the night! Before this started she had just begun sleeping for six hour stints half a dozen times and now I'll feed her, hold her upright over my shoulder for half an hour because I believe she has reflux, and then I put her in her bassinet (mattress inclined, again, to help with reflux) and within half an hour to an hour later she is awake and crying again. She isn't hungry, she's just awake and wanting consoling/cuddles/pacifier til she falls back asleep. What is going on??? I thought at first it was just reflux but I've read about about sleep regression now and though the first one doesn't happen til 4 months, this sounds like it, right? Is it possible for sleep regression to happen early at 3 months instead? Any ideas on what it is or what I could do to help baby get back to sleeping properly? I'm exhausted 😭😭😭

Answer

Wish I had an answer but I feel your pain. My little guy was sleeping 930pm until at least 3am sometimes until 5am. Had been doing that for weeks. He went for his two month shots on monday and the past two nights he still goes to bed around 930 but is up every 3 hours to eat. I feel like a zombie now as my body had adjusted to the extended sleep -_-

I remember them mentioning growth spurts at 3 weeks, 6 weeks, 3 months, and 6 months; maybe thats whats going on with your little one? Also maybe check out the wonder weeks, could be a mental leap (just make sure you use due date and not birth date)?

Answer

My baby is nearly 12 weeks and she is doing similar; she was sleeping for 6 hours in a night but now has become all fuzzy on the boob and had started walking again at 2/3am whereas before it was more like 5am. And she's crying much more.. so tiring
