Babies: 6 - 9 Months

7 month old sleep regression?

LO was basically sleeping through the night at around 6 months but is now going through a phase where he is waking up 2 times at night again. Of course it could be growth spurt, teething, developmental (he is getting very close to scooting/crawling). I try to not nurse him but it's really difficult after 20-30 minutes of trying and he is still crying and not going back to sleep.

Any experience to share or suggestions?

  • It's probably teething related. Sydney STTN from birth - until she started teething. Some nights are better than others. Hang in there. If you are comfortable with it, give him some generic tylenol when he wakes. Also, Hylands teething tablets are great. And they are all natural.

  • We have had the same problems.  She STTN at 4 weeks and now at 6.5 months she seems to wake up at least once if not 10 times a night.  She is not hungry and she never took the paci until she was 6 months old.  One day she was just crying so bad, I broke down called my mom, crying also, saying what is it that I am not doing right.  She told me to offer the paci, which after 6 months of never wanting it I didn't think she would take it, now she loves it.  I think it really helps with her teeth.  Some nights are better than others.  My pedi also said if it is bad, give Tylenol or Ibprofen, which is better for teething but you can't give it until they are 6 months old.
  • thank you so much

    I might try tylenol!
