Ugh! Vent- Suggestions Appreciated

There are several people that have babies the same age as mine (4 1/2 months ish). I am so sick of hearing them say their babies sleep 7 or more hours at night! My baby did and now were LUCKY to get 5 sometimes. instead he's waking up every 2-3 hours. What do I do??? I mean is he starving or is it just a habit now!?!? Please help me! Ped said we could start rice cereal and if he did ok with that change to stage 1 foods, a few spoonfuls a day. He's eating 6 ounces at a time! Do I add more formula and/or food??? I'm exhausted!

4 month sleep regression. Wait it out.

Ok! So it's normal! I feel much better!

Yes, it's sleep regression. It can last 2-6 weeks. It will all be better soon :-)

Also don't worry about what other babies are doing. Your LO is just going through a phase

Mine was sstn then the past few nights have been awful. He was up at 1,2,3 and 4. Hubby got up at 5 to go to work. I'm exhausted. He'll be 4 months on Tuesday.

I hope it's a short phase.

I'm worried because LO just started sleeping 8 hr stretches.. He is 4 mis in two weeks and I don't want him to regress lol. 3.5 mos of no sleep was enough!
