Woke up around 12:30/1am and again around 4/5am. He eventually extended his first wakeup to about 3am and can usually sleep until he gets up (between 6/7am). He's 6 months now so I think they do grow out of it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-to-do-when-lo-wakes-up-at-night#post-596879 Wed, 27 Feb 2013 11:22:27 +0000 bunnylove08 596879@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sammyfab thank you for your reply, i gave her a midnight feeding and she soothed herself to sleep when i put her in the crib with her paci! Thanks again!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-to-do-when-lo-wakes-up-at-night#post-594190 Tue, 26 Feb 2013 12:18:21 +0000 bunnylove08 594190@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sammyfab thanks, I wasnt sure if it was normal for her to need 2 feedings. Shes wetting diapers and is steadily gaining weight. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-to-do-when-lo-wakes-up-at-night#post-594153 Tue, 26 Feb 2013 12:07:36 +0000 Sammyfab 594153@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm also guessing that she needs those feedings as well. My lo's sleep got a little wacky at 3 months and I started using the pacifier to see if he was really hungry. He would always take it at a midnight wake up and go back to sleep for another hour or two. A couple of times he would sleep through the wake up. If he kept crying I would feed him.</p> <p>If you feel like she's not really hungry or nursing well during those nighttime feeds and/or when she wakes in the morning you can try CIO for one of the feeds. It's totally normal for babies to need 1-2 feeds until 6 months and 1 feed until 9-12 months. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-to-do-when-lo-wakes-up-at-night#post-594137 Tue, 26 Feb 2013 12:03:36 +0000 bunnylove08 594137@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrsmenow I use to nurse her at 11 too and she would wake up at 3am, maybe I should nurse her at that time and hopefully she will drop the midnight feeding. But what can i do about the 4am wake up </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-to-do-when-lo-wakes-up-at-night#post-594128 Tue, 26 Feb 2013 12:02:02 +0000 bunnylove08 594128@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@matador84 and @highwire I should have said she is 5 months old. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-to-do-when-lo-wakes-up-at-night#post-594123 Tue, 26 Feb 2013 12:01:13 +0000 mrsmenow 594123@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am guessing if she is waking up an hour later and is hysterical she might really be hungry and need that night feeding. I would feed her the first time she wakes up and see what that does to the later feedings. Maybe she will drop the midnight waking all together. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-to-do-when-lo-wakes-up-at-night#post-594082 Tue, 26 Feb 2013 11:51:50 +0000 DillonLion 594082@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>How old is she? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-to-do-when-lo-wakes-up-at-night#post-594081 Tue, 26 Feb 2013 11:51:34 +0000 matador84 594081@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>How old is she? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-to-do-when-lo-wakes-up-at-night#post-594078 Tue, 26 Feb 2013 11:50:32 +0000 bunnylove08 594078@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So DD goes to sleep at 7:00pm she will sleep until about 11 and she fusses a little and I stick the pacifier in her mouth and she goes to sleep. She will wake up again at midnight and cry hysterically. I try to put the paci in but she will not take it and wants to nurse back to sleep. Then she will wake again at 4am and do the same thing and wakes up again at 6:30am and will stay up. </p> <p>Can I let her cry it out? She is teething right now and when she wakes at midnight I give her some baby tylenol and nurse her and she will go back to sleep. </p> <p>Any advice? </p>
