Sleep regression updates?

Question

This is piggybacking on that sleep regression post that everyone commented on...did any of you mommas finally make it through and are finally getting some needed sleep? How long did yours last? Any tips or tricks, advice, or positivity welcomed too! 
Going on my second week of this sleep regression. she's up every. single. hour. 😢

Answer

This is probably not what you want to hear but it lasted about 6 weeks for us 😴😭
We got a head start so for us it was from 3-4.5 months. Nap time got better before over nights. They both gradually got better until the 4 month shots, then got temporarily worse, and now he sleeps better than before the regression!
I just kept doing what I had been doing. We EBF so I fed him every time he woke up because it was the fastest way to get us both back to bed, he just fell asleep while nursing within five minutes.
Caffeine and naps is the best advice I can offer, you pretty much just have to get through it! It gets better!

Answer

Hahaha I wish I had better news.. I'm on week 5 and it's not much better! Coffee coffee coffee!!

Answer

Ours lasted about 6 weeks also. It got better immediately when my son decided he only wanted to sleep on his stomach. He wakes for one night feeding, and his naps have gotten better too. He used to only sleep 30 minutes and would fight nap time tooth and nail. Now he pulls at least one 1.5 hour nap with a couple 30-45 minute naps, but as soon as I put him in his crib, he rolls to his stomach and puts his thumb in his mouth. He is also putting himself back to sleep easier.

Answer

thanks for all the replies! week two is getting worse...up every hour and on top of that, she thinks it's play time in the middle of the night now. 😢
we have an excellent bedtime routine I've done since a newborn, and she's never confused night and day like this before. I hope we're halfway through this!

Answer

I had thought it was getting better for my daughter but it has just gotten worse. Most nights we are 4-5x usually around the same times every night. We are on week 6 of this, and I am thinking it is no longer the regression and her new norm. I am at a lose.

Answer

DD has finally gotten back to waking up about once per night now. Her sleep regression started around the 15 week mark and now she's 21 weeks. It lasted around 3 weeks and was pretty rough with her waking every 2-3 hours at night. So happy to be passed that now. She usually goes down anywhere from 8:30 p.m.-9 p.m. and will sleep til around 3 a.m. or 4 a.m. She then sleeps til 6 or 7 and is ready to start her day.

Answer

Am on week 5 and it's the worst it's been

Answer

My son is waking up every 2 hours still 😩 he'll cry and cry and is inconsolable. The only that calms him and put him back to sleep is nursing. Nothing else has helped. I feel likes it's been months of this, but I think only a couple weeks. I can't even remember when it started. I've been sleeping in the recliner in his room more than my bed.

Answer

My son sleeps through the night. Last bottle around 830 and wakes up at 6am...the sleep regression for us stared at 3.5 months and lasted 3 LONG weeks..my son will be 5 months tomorrow. My advice If you can..take turns with hubby so you get a 3-4 hr stretch...also Coffee...

Answer

I think it last 3 or 4 weeks for us. I started a bedtime routine and putting him to bed for 5:30/6pm. His nap time changed as well, so he has less during the day.
You'll both get through this, you've just got to stick it out and keep persistent.
