Will my baby magically start sleeping again?

akaoct2005

My DS is 4.5 months (born 11/30) and was doing really well at night...waking up just one time to eat.  I'm assuming he's going through the 4 month nightmare sleeping stage and it's getting worse and worse every night.  So for those of you who have survived this, will he just start getting back into sleeping well at some point or will I have to sleep train or something like that?

Thanks!
