My baby started daycare almost a month ago and recently turned 3 months. Before daycare and before he turned 3 months, he pretty much slept for at least 5-6 hours straight at night. Now he's getting almost 2 - 2 1/2 sleep at a time before he wakes up, then it will take a while for him to go back to sleep. I'm getting kind of frustrated and its very hard getting him to sleep sometimes and staying sleep for at least 6 hours. Is this normal for babies to revert back to waking up more at night.....Any thoughts or suggestions on what I should try.
Re: 3 month old sleep pattern changing
My LO is 3 months and prior to now she was sleeping from 8/9 until 5/530 every night for weeks. This last week she's been waking up better 2-330 and won't go back to sleep /:
I hope it gets better. He went to sleep around 9:00p yesterday and woke up around 1:30am right after I got done pumping. Then went back to sleep around 2:00 am and woke up again around 4:00 am. At this point I nursed him and I think he went back to sleep around 4:30 to 5:00 am, because we normally get up around that time. So it was a little better last night, he slept for 4 1/2 hours straight, I was hoping he would sleep 6 hours through. I guess you would say he slept 6 hours because he really didn't wake completely up between 1:30-2:00, I just rocked him until I thought be was back in deep sleep.
Like pp said I would only nurse her if it had been 3 hrs which is usually when she was waking anyway. If she happened to wake up at like an hr or so I would rock her back to sleep. I would lay in bed and listen to her fuss hoping she would go back to sleep on her own but it only happened once in the 10 days.
