sleeping through the night but …

[Anonymous]

waking up at 4:30 or 5:00 every morning. I really shouldn’t complain, I remember the days when he was up every 3 hours. Any suggestions on how I can help him sleep until 6:00? It doesn’t matter how early or late I put him to bed. I guess he’s an early bird I don’t rush right away to get him, he will go back to sleep after some rocking. I just really need 1 MORE HOUR OF SLEEP! Thanks

What time does he go down at night?

My ds also stirs quite frequently at that time. It’s a pretty common sleep phase transition time, so if they aren’t used to putting themselves back to sleep, they often wake then. Ben always wakes during that time if he isn’t feeling well even still. He’s good about going back to sleep, but he still stirs then.

It’s probably just one of those annoying habits that you’ll have to wait for him to outgrow.

My 19 mo is doing the same thing. He will also go back to sleep, but he shares a room with his big brother and big brother will not go back to sleep. I’m thinking about trying some gentle sleep training again. I dred it though because it means less sleep for me again.
