Baby stirring while sleeping

jobiann · February 2013

Typically DS goes to bed for the night at 8:30 or 9 pm, wakes at 1:30 or 2am and again at 5:30 or 6am and is up for the day.

Yesterday he slept from 4-8pm, woke and ate 3 oz then was back out by 9pm until 4:30am. The weird thing was he stirred from 1 to 4:30am but never fully woke up. At 4:30am he ate 4oz and went back asleep.

Does this seem weird at all...or is he just going through a change in his sleeping pattern?

I wouldn't be concerned if I were you. He might have just had a little gas bubble that he was trying to work out. He sounds like a great sleeper, enjoy!

Not weird. DD changes up her sleeping all the time and can even cry without fully waking herself up. Like this morning she cried bloody murder while I was in the shower and then when I picked her up she was asleep in like 15 seconds.

Both of our girls regularly stir in their sleep -- which is why we couldn't possibly sleep in the same room as them -- they're so loud! Luckily we have a sound machine in the room that filters out most of their rustling/grunting...

Ds spends a lot of time awake talking to himself on his bed. Not a big deal.

If this pattern keeps up and he sleeps this well but stirs as much I think we will transition him to his crib in the nursery. He slept til 4:30am but I kept waking up every 20 minutes because I thought for sure he was going to wake up and want his bottle. I even made a bottle at 1:30am that I thought I could use when he was stirring at 2:30am but he never did wake up...so I threw out an entire bottle (formula). I felt terrible, I hate wasting it but I didn't stick it in the fridge so I had to after the two hour mark.

i swear ds has an internal snooze button. It takes him a good hour to hour and a half of making noise before he actually wakes up. Poor kid has my morning disposition.
