Going to rip my hair out soon....

My DS for the last 4 nights has been up every hour of the night feeding. He is 5 months as of yesterday. Has anyone else had this happen around this time? He all of the sudden wakes so easily and won't go back to sleep unless I nurse him. He is nursing so much so I have him in bed with me and I wake to him kicking me constantly. I am SO freaking tired. Maybe a growth spurt? Thought that was 6 months... Every baby is different I know.

    My LO has been up every 2-3 hrs since 4 months. He's 5 1/2 months now. Sadly it's our new normal. No advice but were in the same boat.

    B has done this the past few nights after STTN for ages. She wakes up screaming each time but typical will nurse for a few minutes or fall back asleep when I pick her up. I think she may be teething and she's really congested so I hope it's not a long term thing. Hope it's temporary for you all too!

    Ever since my DS was born he had only woke up two times a night until a few weeks ago. Now he is like a new baby. He wakes constantly through out the night. I feel for you.

    Yesss I had that! It lasted about a week or so he is now getting back to his 4am wake up but still wakes up at 2am every other day to feed so Mami is a little tired, plus I had the 4m sleep regression too which was hell.... Just remeber it will soonpass (hopefully anyways)

    This happened to us around July. She's five months now and shows no signs of improvement. Hang in there!

    This. Naps suck too. I don't know how to fix it so I am just rolling with it.

    Normal regression. There's also a big leap at 22 weeks (says my WW app that I never really remember to check unless something majorly out of whack starts looking like a habit).

    Hugs. It's so hard to be so tired and function. This has been my life for the past 22 weeks. My LO has never not woken up every 1-2hrs a night and for the last month has especially loved waking up and staying up screaming for 2-3hr stretches. I've adjusted to surviving on no more than 2-4hrs total sleep per day. I hope things improve soon for you!

    Mine did that last week every night, and then on the 7th night slept great.  I chalked it up to a spurt.

    DD just did this last night :( I'm hoping it won't last long, but I'm afraid it will...

    We're right there with you! The other night I left LO with my parents while DH and I went to dinner. My mom panicked when LO wouldn't stop shrieking, and she ended up feeding her 4 oz instead of her usual 3. Maybe it was a fluke, but that night LO slept from 11 pm to 4 am. She has not done that in ages!

    My pediatrician suggested cluster feeding LO in the evenings to see if that effects nighttime wakings. It's worth a shot! Fingers crossed it works.

    Also, LO is officially the perfect height to kick me right where it hurts: in the c-section scar. I feel your pain, quite literally :)

    You're lucky if this just started now, we've been dealing with this since 3.5 months and LO is 5 months now. We're finally getting some good nights now. Hopefully it doesn't last that long for u
