Sleep?! What's sleep?!

Anyone's 6month old still sleeping terribly? My LO use to sleep in 3 hour chunks, but has suddenly gone back to waking every 1.5 hours. When we go to bed she will go down and do a good chunk of sleep. Then after that she wakes every hour or 1.5 hours. I don't know what to do. She's ebf and struggles to settle herself to sleep. (She's a fomo baby with low sleep needs) is there a regression at 6 months or is it something else?! 🙃 I am one tired mumma!

1.5 hours?? What is that? 🙃 The best sleep mine did was 2 hour chunks, never more. Gone down to every hour and sometimes wakes up 2 or 3 times an hour and this has been the case since February 🙃. I've been awake with her for the past 2 hours and she just won't go back to sleep 🥲. And to top it all off, she fights her naps during the day and does a maximum of an hour for the past week or so. You are not alone!

Yeah, there's a 6 month regression from all the development. We've been the same about every hour, it's improving again. I'm EBF too and lower sleep needs.

My baby girl hit a sleep regression 2 weeks before she turned 6 months. I was up til 4 in the morning and exhausted when she woke up. She would only sleep 5-10 min naps but we have now began sleep training her to sleep in her crib. She is 4 days in and is doing really good. She sleeps 5-7 hpurs stretches and then eats once and goes back to sleep and put for another 5 hours. She is also on a consistent schedule to now where she is in bed no later then 10:30

I’m having a sleep mare at the moment too- at night, won’t sleep more than 2 hours. Day time naps have also got worse- usually he does 3 naps which total around 3 hours .. yesterday he did 2 naps totalling under an hour

Yes, 2hour wakes here too, and most days just 3 30minute naps, sometimes 1 hour long middle one but it’s rare. It really does seem to be normal! With you in solidarity 💪🏼

I think they have a leap from learning so many new skills same happend here. My l.o day naps are the worst she's taking only 20 mins to 30 for each nap an sometimes refusing the last afternoon one so by 7pm bedtime she's soooooo overtired an grumpy but not sure what or how to get her to day nap better
