Anyone just have a terrible sleeper? Please tell me I’m not alone …

Question

And for those who have great sleepers, any tips/advice? I feel like I’ve tried everything in the book and he still gets up 1-2 times a night.

Answer

Our son was staying up from 12am-5am and it started to become a habit. He’s always afraid he’s missing something is he hates to sleep and fights it so hard. After getting between 2-3 hours of sleep for close to 3 weeks my husband and I were NOT well… we decided we needed to sleep train. We tried all different methods in the past and the only one we didn’t try was the extinction method so we gave it a whirl. He hollered for about 20 mins and then went to sleep. He still wakes twice but it’s just to nurse and then he’s right back out and now doesn’t protest bedtime at all. He’s happier cause he’s not exhausted and my husband and I are happier too! Our family has benefited greatly from it.

Answer

Your not alone! My 10 month old wakes up 2-3 times during the night 😫 we do everything like “your supposed to” and are still unsuccessful 😫 we do the correct wake windows he takes 2 naps throughout the day he sleeps with his sleep sack, sound machine, black out curtains, in his crib but nothing has worked😓

Answer

My little guy is a good sleeper. He has his bad nights but overall he’s been a good sleeper so I’m not sure if it’s just him or what we do… but some things we do include white noise, fan, blackout curtains, sleep sack, and same routine every night before bed (bottle, diaper change, read “If Animals Kissed Goodnight,” then sleep sack in crib. I found some good tips from Taking Cara Babies

Answer

Mine still does too. My oldest was up every 45 minutes until she was 1. Sometimes you just have to roll with the punches
