Help! Perfect sleeper suddenly waking...

in Babies: 3 - 6 Months

My LO has been a perfect night sleeper. She goes to bed at 7:00, we sneak in a dream feeding at 10pm and she sleeps until I wake her up at 6am. 

 

The last three nights have been bad :(. She wakes up randomly crying. My husband and I have been taking turns changing her diaper and rocking her. She falls back to sleep for 30-90 minutes, then wakes again.

 Any ideas? TIA.

    Four month wakeful!

    Could definitely be the 4 month wakeup. Babies are going through a lot of developments at this age and becoming more aware of their surroundings so they don't sleep as well.

    Good luck and this too shall pass.

    Exact same thing happened to us...same schedule and everything.  4-5 days later she had a tooth!

    We're going through the same thing! He used to sleep from 7 or 8 until 7 or 8 the next morning, with a sleepy feeding at 10 or 11. Now he's been up constantly at night for the last week and a half.  Ugh.

    We're trying different swaddling techniques, but nothing has helped so far. I might pump and give him a bottle at 10 instead of nursing to see if that does anything.

    So no real ideas, but I feel your pain!

    We have been gradually having a few more night feeds in the last week after a series of disruptions...cold, shots etc.  Last night she was up every 2 hours, sometimes hungry, sometimes not.  Ug. I'm thinking of extending her awake time during the day, but I'm not sure what to do.  She's hard to feed too, distractable.

    Enjoy the fact that you've had such a great schedule up to this point. DS has had a week, maybe two, of waking only once per night. For the rest of his almost four months, he eats every 3-5 hours.

    Did you try feeding her when she wakes? Maybe she's hungry? I know when I try to just rock, rather than feed, DS, he wakes back up mad as hell within an hour.
