Ugh. My 5 month old has been sleeping through the night since he was 2 months old. Well, for the last week he has been waking up around 12-1am. He doesn’t want a bottle, doesn’t need a change, he wants to play. And he’ll be up for hourrrrrssss before going back down. This is exhausting and I have no idea why there’s been such a sudden change. Anyone have any clues as to why?? 😭😭😴😴☕️☕️☕️ #SleepDeprivedMomma #CaffeinePlease #GiveMeAlllllllTheCoffee

@deepsoul0490, Ok. Thank you! ☺️ I just couldn’t base this off my first born because since day 1 he’s slept horribly. Hopefully this passes sooner than later 🙏🏻🙏🏻

My son did this phase last month for 2 weeks. Longest 2 weeks ever. Hes usually in bed by 7 until 7. Hed go down at 7 wake up at 10 get bsxk to sleep at 12 wake up at 3 get back to sleep around 4-5 then back up at 7 😱
It gets better!

@lii94 I feel ya. I was thinking to myself this morning, “How long has he been sleeping like this for?” And came to the conclusion that it’s only been for a week...hands down one of the longest weeks of my life 😩😩
Yup. My LO had a similar schedule. He went down every night at 6 and woke up anywhere from 4-6am. It was beautiful lol

@emilymarie1357 Try keeping him up later.

@mhbb3, That was my first thought, but then I realized that I already struggle to keep him up until 6pm. I won’t let him go to bed before then because that’s way too early in my opinion. Every night around 5:30 he starts getting so tired and fussy. So I don’t think that’s gonna help much. I’m thinking maybe it’s a regression...I’m not too sure about that though. If this continues for a few more days than maybe I’ll try readjusting his sleep schedule.

I see...well i hope it ends soon. 😊💕

@mhbb3, thank you ❤️❤️ me too

@emilymarie1357 honestly the only thing that got clark back on track wasnt keeping him up it was making /letting hin sleep no matterhow close to.bed time.
Emily·
@lii94, gotcha. So say he fell asleep at 5 and slept until 6, you would still put him down at 7?
Lisa·
@emilymarie1357 yep! Bath bottle and bed
Emily·
@lii94, I would’ve never thought to try that. I always figured if I let him nap too close to bed time he wouldn’t go down and I would have to push it back. I’ll give it a try! Thanks ☺️☺️

Good luck! Hope it works!
Emily·
@mhbb3, you were right, momma. I took your advice. I kept him up an hour later than normal the past 2 nights and he slept through the night 🙏🏻 thank you!
