My 5 month old suddenly stopped sleeping 5-6 hour stretches and now wakes every 2 hours to eat (worse than the newborn stage, at least then I got 3 hour stretches!)
We’ve tried increasing the amount that we bottle feed to ensure that it’s not hunger-related, we’ve tried switching giving solids to lunch time instead of supper before bed, we’ve tried nice calming baths before bedtime, we’ve tried only using pumped milk during the day in case there’s any caffeine getting through, but NOTHING has been working.
Is this the normal sleep regression pattern or am I doomed to never sleep again? Baby was doing awesome with 5-6 hour stretches in the crib and then needed some cuddles and a snack to sleep another 3-4 hours, but now we’re awake every 2 hours (or less), baby can’t seem to settle, and I feel like I’m going to become full zombie if this continues for another 2 weeks or beyond 🙃
