I just want my sweet baby back :(

My DD is 16 weeks. She had just transitioned to two 2-hour naps (one in the morning, and one in the afternoon) with 1 20-min catnap in between. We had a good thing going for about 2 weeks until all hell broke loose.

Now she's fighting all of her naps, even when she's clearly exhausted and waking up around 5:30 every morning (when she's been sleeping 12 hours straight for months) and is totally wide awake - she wont go back down. She's also been pretty fussy when she's normally a happy baby. When does this 4 month wakeful/fussy period end?? It's been a week! Please tell me it wont really last for a whole month.

    Well... it's different for everyone.  It could last like... maybe a week to several weeks.  Definitely sounds like it's the 4 month wakeful though so you just have to get through it.  Rest assured IT WILL PASS!  Just keep telling yourself that your happy baby will be back relatively soon :)

    Will she take a nap if you hold her if you go out for a walk in the stroller? I am finding that with the four month wakeful period that my LO is also fighting naps and is taking forever to get to sleep at night and most nights wakes up in the middle of  the night. But I found the last couple of days that if I make sure she naps during the day, even if it means that she naps with me, that her sleep at night is better. 

     

    Not as great as before but better.
