changes in sleeping patterns??

Question

First of all, I know I am a very lucky mom because my little girl started sleeping 5-8 hour stretches from about a month and half onward. But my baby just had her 3 month old growth spurt last week and since then, she's now only sleeping 2-3 hour stretches through the night 😢 
I just went back to work two weeks ago and I'm prone to migraines so this has been very tough dealing with the sudden lack of sleep. Is it normal for her sleeping patterns to change like this after a growth spurt? Is it temporary or will this be her new schedule for a while? She's about 3.5 months old now and I'd even be thrilled to get 4 hours in a row!

Answer

From what I've seen from other posts it's normal. My son is also sleeping no more than 2 hours at a time & eating every 2 hours during the day, too. I want to know when it'll end...

Answer

Could be a growth spurt and a wonder week back to back. We went threw a few weeks of no sleep then one night it all went back to normal.

Answer

This was me last week! Don't know if it was a growth spurt or sleep regression, but we were diligent on having him fall asleep on his own for all of his naps and nighttime sleep.

Supposedly this helps when they wake up in the middle of the night to help them fall back asleep on their own, it worked for us. His sleep pattern did change in the end, instead of 8-4-7, it's not 8-2-7. All the same hours in the end!  We also didn't get up if he started fussing at 10 or 11 because I knew he wasn't hungry and he always went back to sleep within 5-10 minutes.

Answer

I am right there with you. Crazy growth spurt. Up every hour or two at night the last few days. One of my friends recommended hiring a sleep consultant. I am going to wait it out a little bit before I take drastic measures.

Google four month sleep regression
