I can't wait for her to get back to her longer stretches at night...last night was rough she woke at 12, 3, 4, 6, and 7 :( I've heard about the 4 month regression....hopefully it won't be too bad for you!!</p> <p>@mrsjyw: maybe your LO will skip the week 8 from hell? I don't think all babies go through all the wonder weeks </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/wonder-week-8-anyone-else-experience-this#post-483135 Sat, 05 Jan 2013 19:17:04 +0000 JoyfulKiwi 483135@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS went through the Wonder Week 8 (and 12 - that one was combined with a vacation and it was a doozy!) His sleep was awful during that time and honestly his napping has never been the same. I feel like now, at 13 weeks, he's getting a little better but it's still a crapshoot. Happily his nighttime sleep seemed to calm down within a week of me noticing how awful he was sleeping.<br /> During his last WW, he had a night where he woke every hour and screamed/cried. Last night he slept 7-12, 12-4, 4-7 &amp; fell asleep immediately after nursing. YAY!<br /> Sadly, I know the 4 month sleep regression is right around the corner. But I'm writing down these successes to help me get through those desperate nights! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/wonder-week-8-anyone-else-experience-this#post-483110 Sat, 05 Jan 2013 18:52:41 +0000 runsyellowlites 483110@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>P has followed most all the wonder weeks to the T. Her early weeks she was just fussy all the way around though b/c of all our feeding issues so it wasn't until she got past those that I really started noticing the wonder week correlation.</p> <p>I've also noticed that when she reaches new "big" physical milestones her sleep gets interrupted... like when she figured out how to get on her hands &amp; knees &amp; rock.... no wonder week, no growth spurt, just always awake &amp; refusing to sleep. Thankfully after a few days it past.</p> <p>Basically what I've figured out is baby's have "bad"/crazy days and weeks out of the blue for no good reason sometimes &amp; I just go with it. lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/wonder-week-8-anyone-else-experience-this#post-483095 Sat, 05 Jan 2013 18:43:08 +0000 mrsjyw 483095@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm not there yet, but wanted to bump this to get feedback in preparation for coming weeks! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/wonder-week-8-anyone-else-experience-this#post-482878 Sat, 05 Jan 2013 14:23:38 +0000 NovBaby1112 482878@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO has been super fussy lately, during the whole day and not just her normal evening 7-9 witching hours...she also has been nursing much less frequently and fighting naps like crazy. It seems like all she wants to do is play and look around haha....her nighttime sleep is also way worse...she used to sleep a 6 hour stretch then another 3-4 but is now up every 2 hours!! I did some research and discovered the lovely wonder week 8.... Did any of you notice this behavior around this time? When will I get my happy sleepy baby back?? </p> <p><a href="http://www.thewonderweeks.com/index.php/about-the-wonder-weeks/your-babys-10-leaps/mental-leap-2" rel="nofollow">http://www.thewonderweeks.com/index.php/about-the-wonder-weeks/your-babys-10-leaps/mental-leap-2</a> </p>
