Oh boy do I hear you. My eldest was like this from day one. She would sleep for 5mins max during the day and scream for 4 or more. On the day she was born the ambulance driver told me that she was the only baby that had cried nonstop for him

With little bubs, there are good nights and bad nights. I have a 3 month old and experiencing the same. It feels like it will never be over but it will be, telling from experience as i have 2 olders boys too. I do attached parenting so self settling and letting them cry wasnt for me but you can try it if it suits you as recommended here by other mums.

Do you have a Karitane near you? We did a residential stay and it helped us

You have got some great answers here. Really, as long as your bubs is feeding, and putting on weight, there is nothing to worry about. If you are worrying, your bubs will sense it and be worse. Self-settling is the way to go in my book. Good luck. And as others have said, this will pass, and it will get better.

Ohhh poor you. Can you get into sleep school to help you out?

A case of drop everything and sleep when baby does

It sounds like if nothing else is working you need to try self-soothing. If your baby is clean, fed , etc and there is no reason you can see for her to be crying, put her back for a nap. Let her cry for a bit, check on her, pat her back, etc while still in the cot, then walk away. Keep doing this until she falls asleep. If she is still crying, try leaving her for a longer period to see if she will cry it out. We got to that point with my son. Eventually he started sleeping through the night. It will be a couple of tough weeks, but within that time she should have learned to self-sooth. Failing that, see your doctor or a nurse for advice.

It will pass. I know that might not be helpful. When I got to 8 months, we went to sleep school where I stayed overnight. It worked. It was about letting bub cry and settle himself, and it did work.

I don’t have any additional advice that the other Mums have already posted. Just wanted to say hang in there. It will pass. You will get to sleep through the night again.

Sleep when you can. Don’t stress about anything else cept you n bub. You’ll get through it

Hang in there momma you will get through it. We used to wrap bub in a swaddle and make sure she was warm, played white noise. There are good and bad nights,

My personal thought is that babies sense your stress! Ignore wake windows etc and just try to follow your baby’s lead

Not sure there are any tips other then hang in there, like most things with babies, it will pass

We made sure our baby was warm, felt secure (wrapped), her room was a good temp (18-22 degrees), room had no distractions and was totally dark, and swear by sleep noise – thank you running water sounds!!! Also around that age we slowly introduced a ‘lovey’ which she still has now at 3yo – a sleep toy/rug. Wear it down your top for a whole day and baby will go nuts for it because it’ll have your smell on it. Sleep regressions are actually progressions in the end, tough but so good to see the developments they make. So hard to get through though, as long as you take it one day at a time and know that it WILL pass. Wishing you good sleep!!

Have a set routine for all sleep times, but try to not stress! It does get better!

You don’t mention if you already do this but I found my babies slept best if they were wrapped. Even once they started moving I would wrap them in a muslin rap in the summer and a sleeping bag in winter.

1st we make sure baby has been checked by a doctor and all is well and then we go to regular everything .Remember we train them not the other way around. It seems hard but will work. First is food feed via timetable which you can work out exactly what baby needs and wants e.g if it is every 4 hours then stick to that exactly the space between feeds will get longer .Change baby at these times even if not needed remember we are creating habit . Comfort and temperature right amount of clothing and bedding for your climate .Noise is your friend soft sleep music played on a blue tooth speaker is a great help .Dummy soft toy security blanket are also great to be included. Now close the door and walk out and don’t go back in for ever increasing times . There is 2 people in the story and they both have to be trained the reward will follow soon don’t be weak

Hi I just wanted to say hang in there mumma bear. It gets better, I promise xx

Ask for some help, dad can put baby to sleep and you get some rest. Lots of babies do this

I’m so sorry you’re going through that. The 4 month sleep regression hit us so hard and waking 2hrly at night as well with minimal day naps.
We just had to ride it out and eventually she started linking her day cycles.
I think what helped me get through it is just expecting her sleep to be terrible and when it wasn’t as bad here and there it was a bit of relief.
