Sleep regression?!

Question

My daughter is 16 weeks old and for the past 2 nights, she's been waking up every 2-3 hours. I'm assuming she's hungry because she scarfs down the bottle. She's mostly formula fed (I'm currently going through a relactation process), and I noticed yesterday afternoon she was so hungry at one point that she guzzled down 6oz! She woke up last night at 11PM and this morning 2:15AM, and 5AM. She used to sleep right through the night. Anyone else's kiddo going through this? Do we have a growth spurt on our hands?  I also just remembered she took only 2 naps yesterday but they were each about 2-3 hours long.

Answer

Totally normal sleep regression! Started at 15w for my LO and still going at 19w. They can last anywhere from 2-10w, so hang tight mama, it'll get better!!

Answer

My baby is 5 months and have woken up 2-4x during the night since birth. It's exhausting

Answer

Oh holy hell, sleep regression in full effect over here too. Babes was sleeping through the night and now, she wakes every 2/3 hours. Sometimes to eat, other times for no reason at all. Sometimes it takes 15 min to put her back to sleep and sometimes an hour plus. Going on 2 weeks now, I certainly hope it ends soon. 
Good luck Mommas!

Currently going through this started this week and it’s crazy! She was a decent sleeper 90% of the time only woke once to feed. Now I can barely put her down at all! She just wants to be on me and she started straight refusing a bottle. I’ve been breastfeeding and giving formula as a supplement. I’ve gotten no sleep this week I’m hoping to get past it soon

Answer

Yes! Age related sleep regression I think. My boy is now 18 weeks today. We are at tail end of a neurological leap and at a growth spurt physically. Mine was sleeping 10-11 hours at night... Started waking once per night and 2 nights later was waking 3 times per night at same times as yours. He is ebf and acted so hungry. Last night I fed him at 10 & 2 but let him cry back to sleep at 5am (I'm toast after this last week of very little sleep). It only took 5-10 minutes for him to go back to sleep. Increase your daytime ounces of food & maybe it'll help. Mine started daycare 2-3 days per week now that I'm returning to work, so I'm hoping we can get him back on schedule soon. Momma needs to sleep too!

Answer

We just started extra wake ups last night and boy was it a long night! I hope it doesn't last to long, she was previously waking up only twice to eat but last night she woke up every 1-2 hours. Saw the doctor for her 4 month check today and she's perfectly healthy, just growing!

Answer

same here,  only she refuses to sleep in her crib as of 3 days ago.  they are I  the middle of their 4th leap.
