Is mine the only 6mo that has never slept through?

Mrs-G · Jan 28th, 2012, 07:12 AM

Not that I'm that bothered but she still wakes every 3-4 hours for a feed, at about 3-4 months I was getting a stint of 6-7 hours but that only lasted a week. She is still in our room, dh says he wants to move her into her own room but I've only just got her into a bedtime routine plus we're off on holiday in a couple of weeks so I don't want to disrupt things at the minute.

Just wondering if it's just me or if this is fairly normal!

I don't know if it's normal, but you're not alone! Actually you're doing better than we are. Caroline never sleeps longer than two hours between wakings, and hourly wakings are pretty common.

The longest she ever slept was seven hours, and that was only once. For a few weeks around 2 months she was sleeping better, going 4-5 hours at a time, but she chucked that all in pretty much over night. I tried blaming it on three month growth spurt, then four month sleep regression, hunger, habit, cold...but I've finally just come to the conclusion that she doesn't sleep well. I've really given up hope that she will sort herself out before the toddler years. I just hope I'm still alive to see that day!

Its normal! Its normal for babies to not sleep through the whole night til they're one year old. Maria is nearly one and has slept through only once.

Nathan doesn't sleep through but then again I never have either so don't really expect him to. I often wake for a drink or something

you are not alone
