Anyone have any tips on getting a 10 month old to sleep through the night?
My son still wakes up between 2 to 4 times a night
My daughter was sleeping through the night at 6 weeks
We've tried rice cereal in his bottle, water when he wakes up in the middle of the night, complete quiet, noise machine, night light, complete darkness
I'm desperate for a full night of sleep
I started to put cereal and oatmeal in my daughter's formula. it helped a lot.
I know they say it's unsafe but my first son wouldn't sleep unless he was in bed with me and then he slept all night until his daddy woke up for work then my son would wake me up to watch cartoons.
Mines almost 14 months old and still wakes up every now and then in the middle of the night.
I know it's hard but it's become the routine. let baby fuss it out. it's going to be a rough few days or weeks but once you do it you will get that much needed sleep. they have to learn to self soothe so provide a bottle of water in the crib soothing music whatever helps. Go in every so often and reassure baby they are OK. My own didn't struggle through this but we have custody of our nephew. He turned two in October and that is something he was still doing just like an infant waking up many times it was rough the first few months. Based my letting him cry and going in and talking to him to soothe him with each situation. Sometimes they get so worked up they need you to come in. but in the end they have to learn how to settle themselves down. Good luck
live with 5 kids from pregnancy til current from my sister & her hubby! if they're hungry put a little bit of rice cereal to fill em up, make it a little thinner than milk. if he's got gas & is gassy try gas drops from Walmart, also there's exercises for your baby to help break up gas, if he's just bored I know its hard& a lot of people have different views but let him cry it out. even from a young age they gotta learn to self soothe, I'm not saying from birth but its okay to let them cry when you're showering etc.
