3 Month Sleep Regression??

JilllyBean · November 2013

My guy has slept through the night or only gotten up once to eat since like 6 weeks. The past week he's been much worse. The past 2 nights it's 2-3 times with them getting earlier and earlier. I did just go back to work, he isn't in day care yet but our moms are watching him. Anyone else had this happen? Is it bc of work and his schedule changing? Or could the slept regression happen earlier than 4 mo? Being back at work and getting up 3 times a night is taking it's toll!! Help!

I literally just commented on a thread called "12 week sleep regression". It was on page 1. It's not that hard to scroll through to see if your topic was posted recently. Just sayin.

Hey snark much? Some of us don't function well on zero sleep
Just sayin

JilllyBean · November 2013

I did look, I was on mobile and it was 1AM so maybe consider I might have missed it. It's not like there are 12 posts asking the same question. I am not new to TB, I know how this works and understand when someone keeps asking the same thing, or is brand new and you can tell they didn't look at the board at all, that might be annoying. But please, you can see I know how TB works by my post count so maybe consider I might have overlooked it. How hard is it to say, that question was actually just posted. Here is the link. I know that is what I do when I suspect that situation. Just sayin.

Hey Maritza why don't you calm the F down. Your snark is misplaced. Why don't you get some time in the biz as we say before you start acting like anyone gives a shit, because guess what WE DONT.

OP its very possible all these changes are effecting his sleep along with hitting a growth spurt.

Some of us don't actually have time to sit on this shit tastic board 24/7 anymore like you clearly do. Who cares if it's a similar post. She has a question and asked for help.

Well then! I would say lack of sleep has turned you in to a snarky bitch. Just sayin!!

Op my lo is doing the same thing. It's so frustrating. Hang in there it will get better. I'm thinking growth spurt here. Plus we are fighting a cold. Good luck.

I hate it when people day "just sayin."

It's obnoxious.

This sleep deprived momma is in the same boat. Before I started work last week, he slept from 9:30 to 3:30 consistently. Now he is up every 2 to 3 hours. Its exhausting. I don't know what to do and since we BF, I am the only one not getting sleep. I hope its just his 3 month growth spurt and not a new normal.

PrimRoseMama · November 2013

There is a growth spurt at 12 weeks. Those can last for weeks though. Hang tough.

darjeeling · November 2013

Maritza, haphazard use of "literally" as an intensifier diminishes the effectiveness of the speaker. Just sayin.

OP - We have hit a sleep regression at around 15 weeks. I wasnt sure if it was due to the time change, and that we traveled to the east coast (two hour time difference). But he appears to be holding strong at waking up twice per night still, wherease before he was STTN for about 6 weeks (weeks 9-15).

So no tips other than to commiserate that its tough! A couple things that have helped me through it.

1) As @BelhurstBride helped remind me, he isnt going to need me like this forever so I should try to enjoy it as much as possible. I am keenly aware that time passes so so so quickly now that I have a little one, so I try to remind myself to savor each moment.

2) I've been putting him to bed a bit earlier. This allows me to get a little extra sleep on the front end before his 1am feeding. Not sure if this would work for you but give it a try.

Holy.

MitsB707 · November 2013

Umm, since when is telling someone it was posted recently super bitchy? OP, I'm also mobile, so the fact that I had posted on the thread about the same thing, and also telling you the title of said thread, would "bump" it up on the app so you could also see it. Can't exactly copy and post a link to the thread when you're mobile.

Yea, I've been sleep deprived for almost 4 weeks from a growth spurt and sleep regression and likely incredibly snarky as a result. You probably would be, too.

@zever000 I was thinking the same thing.

It was your tone. But nice try. "I literally just commented on a thread...It's not that hard to scroll through and see.." Might as well just call her stupid and be done with it.

BelhurstBride · November 2013

Um... we often suggest to OP's of duplicate posts to try searching the board. And really? Sleep regression and growth spurt posts are a dime a dozen these days.

JilllyBean · November 2013

Like I said, I don't mind if someone points out it was posted about earlier that's fine. You don't need to be so snarky about it.

But seriously, as a mom to a kid who doesn't even come close to STTN, I'm am sick of people complaining about getting the kind of sleep I would very much appreciate.

Babies be babies.

For real.

Damn, when did telling OP to do some scrolling become taboo, cause we used to do it ALL.THE.DAMN.TIME. Is being sleep deprived going to be the new pregnant and pissy (which is the sister to "are you PMS-ing?") Cause if someone is all "you must be sleep deprived cause you're being a bitch" I'm gonna be all "no you are".

This! Holy! I freaking cry with joy if I get a 4 hour stretch. Most nights I'm still up every 2-3 hours. I usually run on 4-5 hours of inconsistent sleep a night. If I can do it you can do it.

You know what else is a dime a dozen on TB? Ladies who lord it over other posters for any perceived error or misstep. We need power tripping less than we need duplicate posts.

Is it just me or are there hell of a lot of SN I've never seen on this board before??

Exactly!

All of you getting upset because Maritza pointed out a previous post need to calm down. It happens here all the time. You ladies are way too sensitive. Besides, it is very annoying that we get the same posts constantly (sleep regression, wonder weeks, 2 month shots, STTN, and preparing to return to work). I don't have to spend all day on this board to see that the same questions get asked over and over again.

OP, babies sleep patterns change. It's normal (unless you notice something that makes you suspect illness).

RoosterMemphis · November 2013

This whole post was clearly worth it. We've always informed OP's to search the board. Snarky? That is nothing new.

Welcome to the bump ladies. I suggest getting over this quickly and growing a thicker skin. Or go over to Babycenter.

Revez · November 2013

CaliforniaDream87 · November 2013

Meh, I recognize everyone here. I just don't get the "attack Maritza" line up when we tell posters to search the board, before posting, all the time.

I recognize some of them but from a while ago, not recently. And OP, you can't see the post count anymore without going to that users page. Clearly none of us have the time for that kind of detective work.

You are such a bitch.

THAT'S WHY I LIKE YOU! and why your post made me giggle. but my baby also STTN so i'm not bitter about sleep related topics like some posters apparently are.

V&G101808 · November 2013

DAYUM!! People need to lay off Maritza... Since when is snark new on the bump? And since when is telling people their post is a clear duplicate new???

And to all those who popped out of nowhere for something so stupid:

At the risk of sounding like the dirty creepy lurker like I was, I've actually been reading the threads on this board since I found out I was pregnant. I originally intro'd back last December and if you read my reintro a few months ago, I explain why I lurked for so long.

I usually recognize most of the posters on here.

BlondieBia21 · November 2013

We've never had this issue. My baby stays asleep because I feed her cereal in her bottle....

She's particularly fond of Lucky Charms. Does your LO like marshmallows, OP? Give it a try.

Ok. Well if you truly lurked back then , you should in fact, recognize these posters.

I've been on TB for quite some time and have seen plenty of snark in my day. I just feel that sometimes it isn't needed/useful/funny/etc especially since we don't have all day to make sure we don't post a dupe. The way I read maritza's response, it sounded like she was trying to make her feel stupid which isn't helpful. All she had to say was "see the thread a few posts down" or wherever the hell it was which I've seen plenty of people say that without being jackholes.

Should, but don't.
Like I said, I usually recognize posters. I don't see why this is an issue whether I recognize them or not.

I am with this. I usually love me some snark where its warranted. Here it seems like snark just to be ugly. That's not cool. There are TONS of duplicate post. You would think that it would have been reconciled a while back that this would be the run of the mill.
