It was my first thought even before you answered my question about her age. Liv and many MANY other moms I know have gone through this, which is why a lot of moms begin sleep training at 4 months. Matter of fact, I started a topic about it when liv was 3 months and 3 weeks old =o) So I feel your pain.</p> <p>YES&lt; you will be able to get her back on a normal sleep schedule, but you might have to work at it. It took liv a few weeks to go back to 7 hours, and after that she'd wake every hour. I finally found that I needed to put her down an hour earlier (At her signs of being tired) and do a mild version of sleep training to get her back to longer stretches, but it did happen. </p> <p>I found that at 4 months, she needed one night time feeding, and the rest were her using me as a pacifier. I knew because she would gulp during the first feeding, and the rest were more shallow and passive nursing sessions.</p> <p>Id do some research into sleep training methods and pick what method works for you and maybe consider that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-i-get-her-sleep-back-on-track#post-157994 Mon, 14 May 2012 13:43:34 +0000 Sweet T 157994@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@BabyBoecksMom: She could be going through the 4 month sleep regression. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-i-get-her-sleep-back-on-track#post-157982 Mon, 14 May 2012 13:30:28 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 157982@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LivsMama: She'll be 4 months next week </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-i-get-her-sleep-back-on-track#post-157970 Mon, 14 May 2012 13:21:58 +0000 LivsMama 157970@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>how old is she? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-i-get-her-sleep-back-on-track#post-157959 Mon, 14 May 2012 13:14:00 +0000 heffalump 157959@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh no, hope you find a solution so you both can get some good sleep soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-i-get-her-sleep-back-on-track#post-157954 Mon, 14 May 2012 13:11:52 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 157954@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Before I went back to work at 12 wks pp, DD was sleeping 8-9 hours each night (8pm-5am straight). Since she's been in daycare, she isn't napping like she used to (from all the noise), and now she only sleeps 5-6 hours at a time at night... she'll go to bed at 8 and wake up at 3am, 5am and 6am. I have been offering her the breast everytime she wakes up because I can't figure out if she's waking because she's hungry, or because she just wants me as a pacifier. (She'll be 4 months next week)</p> <p>Either way, I'm really struggling at work because I'm so tired, so I would really like to get her back to sleeping 8 hours at a time. Does anyone know if there is something I could try to get her back on track? </p>
