Going on week #4 of 4MW

This 4mo wakeful business is killing me!  Starting week #4.  It has to end soon, right?  I guess the one bright spot of all of this is that although I don't particularly enjoy being up for 1.5 hrs in the MOTN, DS generally is smiling ear to ear during this time.

  • After a couple of weeks, we did Ferber. But our 4mw wakeful lasted a solid month. Sorry!

  • Ds was doing that, with no end in sight, then last night he STTN! He is 5 months old today, so I'm hoping he realized that STTN is cool and he will keep doing it. Hopefully you don't have too much longer.

  • We're going on week 5 of the 4MW.

    I'm pretty sure this is part of the reason DD got kicked out of her daycare. She was napping pretty well, and then bam! this hit and she fights to go to sleep and then will only stay down for 30min. And man, she screams when she's tired. Last week her nights finally started to improve, so that is one light in this tunnel. I hope this goes away.

    Honestly, this has been worse than any of the other "phases." I'll be dreading this for #2. 

  • @Pink -They can kick you out of daycare for not sleeping well?!?  And yes, this is the toughest phase thus far.... but I'm sure there will be tougher - yikes!

    @HuaHua - he was STTN for about the first month or 5 wks of me being back to work, but then we switched him to the crib, got rid of the swaddle, started teething and hit the 4MW all about the same time - so not sure which factor(s) is/are causing the waking up at night.  He has thrown in a couple of STTNs in the last 4 weeks, but nothing consistent.
