Sleep regression with growth spurts?

KelleyA · January 2011

I swear I've had a kid before, but sometimes this stuff escapes me! I don't remember Amelia regressing with sleep, but I'm sure she did. Juliet is making us nuts, she's getting up at all hours of the night wanting to nurse and she's generally needy/crabby throughout the day. I'm hoping and praying it's just her growth spurt, she turned 6 months on Saturday. Did any of your kiddos regress on their sleeping during growth spurts?

Is she sitting up yet or trying to crawl maybe? I ask because more than at growth spurts, I noticed periods of particularly bad sleep accompanied every major physical milestone (rolling, sitting, crawling, standing, walking). But, Cooper grew so fast the first 6 months that I could never really pinpoint "growth spurts" it was all one long continuous growth spurt. So it could be that too!

I'm also probably not the person to ask about sleep, Cooper's was never good enough to call anything a "regression." LOL

Hang in there! This too shall pass.

I remember regression but like Suzi I dont know if it was just from a growth spurt or if it was milestones. It will pass soon I'm sure.

I remember 4 and 6 months were particularly "regressiony". Both for growth spurts (extra nursing) and for milestones (restless sleep). So sorry! It usually only lasted a week or two.
