OK! Help! My almost 9 month old will NOT sleep thru the night no matter what i do. I know "it's normal" still but! from the time she came home from the hospital until she was about 6 months old she would sleep for almost 9 hours straight every night!! and now she wakes up about 4 times every night! I'm worried she's not getting full enough but i physically can't make her eat more than she wants to! Any advice?! 😳

She's probably going through a growth spurt! Some babies have trouble sleeping when they are.

That was my first thought! Am i wrong for thinking this is too long to be a growth spurt? going on almost 3 months😞 @meghanklein

easiest thing is to keep her up for five hours before 10pm then fill with milk and send to bed. should help.

I've been giving her 2 bottles mixed with rice cereal ..she usually drinks one going to sleep and the other throughout the night. i told her pediatrician i was doing that and she told me to stop (we have a language barrier ..and shes substituting for her actual one so im iffy about her) sooo now i only give her the one to go to sleep and regular bottles throughout the night. bad idea?? @islanddreamer07

My baby is 5 months and has slept through the night since he was about 3 months old. I just try to keep his schedule-naps and feedings about the same time each day. Then after a certain time put him in his crib and play with him if he won't fall asleep so he knew it was bed time. I also don't let him nap in his crib so if he's in his crib he knows it's bed time
