Babies: 6 - 9 Months

Sleep Theory?

So, I hear a lot of people telling me that sleep tends to get better after 9-10 months. I'm wondering if this is because they tend to be done mastering all the basic milestones by then and therefore, no need to keep waking?? I dunno.. maybe wishful thinking?? haha DS is meeting all the milestones on the early side so I'm wondering if this is why his sleep is sucking lately.

Re: Sleep Theory?

  • In my experience (but my LO is only just shy of 6m), sleep gets better, then there's a set-back, then it gets better, then there's a set-back, LOL. But so far it just continually gets better as they get older.  I think mama's of 1-2 year olds and even toddlers older than that will tell you they have set backs too. I know my friend with 2yo twins is up every few hours cause they keep on passing a cold back and forth to each other. Teething, illness, whatever!    My theory is that we just need to roll with the punches and that whatever set-back we are going through, know that it doesn't last forever! :)
