Would you say your baby is a good sleeper?

Question

Mine is not. 4.5 months, catnaps if he isn't held, wakes 3-5 times a night (one of those times to eat. The other times just to wake up) and is super restless. I've tried putting him in his crib because I heard babies sleep better after 4 months in their own rooms but he still did the same thing. We are currently co sleeping so I can get some sleep but he is so restless and won't stay asleep long. His first stretch at night is 3-4 hours and then after that every 2 and then when it's close to waking up (he wakes up around 5:30-6) he wakes up every half an hour to an hour. It's just awful!!

Answer

My baby girl is 4.5 months as well and I feel like her stretches of sleep are pretty inconsistent as well. She usually goes down between 7:30-8 and then she can either sleep 3,4,5 or 6 hours at first and then up every 2 after that. Lately she’s been wanting to get up at odd hours and just talk for a couple hours 🤷🏻‍♀️ I get tired of trying to figure it out. All I know is I have giant bags under my eyes and I’m pretty dang tired from all the broken sleep the last few months.

Answer

My daughter does great at night time, she goes to bed typically between 7&8pm (sometimes 6:30) and sleeps through the night until about 7-8am without waking. During the day, totally different story. She won’t nap, no matter how hard I’ve tried. Sometimes she will take 10-15 min naps but nothing consistent. She gets so overtired and cranky during the day, too. But at least she’s sleeping all night so I try not to complain but some days are rough once she gets so overtired.

Answer

I feel like I’ve read just about every single tip to get baby to sleep better... I put him down drowsy and try to get most of his milk in during the day.... I watch his wake windows and we have a solid, consistent bedtime routine.... and yet, he’s always been a terrible sleeper. I see no improvement in sight 😴

Answer

I feel like my daughter was a good sleeper, then she began catnapping and now is in the 4 month sleep regression 😩

Answer

My son is a good nighttime sleeper he does to bed at 7:30 and wakes between 7/8am. He occasionally fusses but goes back to sleep but it’s usually when he can’t get his binky back into his mouth. He’s been sleeping through the night since 6weeks old. We had a little bit of a sleep regression a couple weeks ago or so. Naps have been horrible though! He will only nap if he’s being held which he never did before he use to put himself to sleep for naps, bedtime was the only time he needed to be rocked.

Answer

My daughter goes to sleep around 9 and wakes up on her own around 7:30 am the next morning. Barely wakes up overnight anymore, maybe once a week. She’s been a very good sleeper since about one month.

Answer

He was until 2 weeks ago. Now he wakes up at least 4 times a night and a lot of the time I have to hold him for him to sleep, he won’t let me put him back in the crib. He also needs to be held for naps or they are very short 😭 My son and I are both exhausted, hoping something changes soon!
