Miss A started to STTN at about 21 months and is now doing it over half the time at 24 months. Fwiw I know a couple of girls whose babies were great sleepers for the first eighteen months but their sleep has now gone to sh*t!
I'm a firm believer that there are just some kids who need a bit more night time parenting and mine is one of them!
-
12.5 months when we sleep trained. She still has rough nights here and there but mostly she goes to sleep at night easily and wakes up in the morning happy.
-
Mine did not sleep through at all until ~14 months when I night weaned. Now at 22 months she will wake up occasionally at night, but usually not much more than 1x a week .
-
Not until we finished teething around 17 months... then it was like a light switch. He still wakes up at 4 occasionally but usually goes back to sleep on his own.
-
Around 14 months. It will happen for you!!! I know it totally sucks.
-
At around 15 months, but then she started daycare a month later and we had a set back. But that passed quickly, and by 17 months it was consistent again. She is almost 18 months now and I don't remember the last time she was up in the MOTN.
-
12 months and 2 weeks. He literally went from 3-4 wake ups every night of his life to boom! STTN all of a sudden on his own. He never regressed after that. Good luck!
-
Around 14 months he started sleeping 11 hrs a night and taking 2-3 hr naps. It was heaven.
-
Right after Thanksgiving so, almost 18 months
-
I voted not yet because he goes through phases where he will most nights and then just stop. He is alnost 25 months. We never sleep trained and co slept until around 20 months. He used to just wake up to come in our bed. He started waking less when we got him in a bed rather than the crib.
-
Right around 13 months. It will happen, hang in there!
-
At 13.5 months, for no rhyme or reason--it just happened! And has been consistent outside of sickness. It will happen!
-
I don't know if it gives you hope or not ... But we night weaned and sleep trained at 18 months and by 19 months she was sleeping through the night most nights. We still have a rough night once in a while but it's 1000% better than before. When her sleep was really bad I kept repeating to myself that it wouldn't last forever ... I'm happy to report it didn't!
-
By 15 months when he started really walking, I swear that helped him so much!
-
18ish months here....sorry!!
-
Almost 22 months until it was more STTN days than not for DS.
DD is 14 months and we are still waiting... -
Im reviving this thread because it is 2 months later and E still doesn't STTN. She was up twice last night - 11pm and 3am. The 3am wake up was brutal because despite my best efforts it lasted an hour and 20 minutes. She was up for the day at 6.50.
Reading through this thread has given me hope again because it does sound as though 18 months is the magic number. She will be 18 months in 3 weeks!
@Mrs. Lion: I think teething might be our issue too. She has been teething solidly from 2.5 months pretty much and it really bothers her; shes not one of those kids who breezes through it! Unfortunately we still have 4 canines and 4 second year molars to get through.
I'm tired!!!!!!!!!
-
@Cherrybee: LO has been a pretty good sleeper but these molars have been horrible for the last 2 months. He's 14.5 months so reading this thread gave me hope.
-
@Cherrybee: my lo still isn't sleep through all the time but I figured out we sort of had a chicken or the egg problem. I think she was waking up to see me and I kept going in because I thought she *could* be hungry so what we decided on was making night wakings extremely low reward. We just point out her sippy of water and say its time for bed E. This has been going surprisingly well. She's decided with no cuddles or milk waking up isn't really worth it. But also babies are maniacs so what worked today probably won't work tomorrow. I'm hoping we can all get more sleep soon!
-
@Cherrybee: Just want to send hugs
We had a blissful month of normal sleep, but lo just started the 4 am wake ups again this week. I could cry. Surely this ends eventually right? He is almost 2 -
@Mrs. Lion: 4am sucks:( Its pretty sad that I'm hoping daylight savings puts us back to normal times
-
About 13 months with a few off nights here and there until about 18 months. Pretty much once we switched to wcm he started sttn.
-
19 months and still not there yet.
-
@Cherrybee: our babies are the same age and my LO hasn't slept through the night since last summer, not even once.
She also started fighting naps and bed time, which sucks because her issue was staying asleep--before falling asleep was easy.
We are still traveling over the holidays, but when we are home I'm going to be doing CIO AGAIN, for like the 5th time. I'm pregnant and nauseous and need to get her sleep back on track. Right now at Grandmas house, my mom gets her when she wakes up at night, but at home we are all going to be on for a major reality check.
-
It got much better at 2, but at 4.5 she still wakes once a night and crawls into bed with us between 2-4 am.
-
At three, my daughter usually sleeps through. But that's fairly recent.
-
This was revived at the perfect time. Our LO still has trouble sleeping (12 months), but this thread gives me hope!
-
DD still hasn't sttn at almost 15 mo. We were slowing night weaning her before the holidays, but she's back to nursing a ton due to a cold, teething and travel. You're not alone!
-
I'm relieved it's not just our house. My recently turned 12 month old sleep went to crap the past few weeks. Back to 2 night awakenings and having to co-sleep kind of crap. I'm glad to hear it gets better at some point!
-
@Anagram: Wow! You're pregnant?! Congratulations!!
@sarac: Three??? AAAAAGH!!
@Somebunny: Oh no!!!!! Hugs.
@Mrs. Lion: When does it end?? I'm sorry.
-
@Cherrybee: well, mm will be 15 months this month and HAD been sleeping through the night until her molars started cutting through. Right now the only way she is sleeping through the night is by sleeping with us. Break is over this week, so I'm hoping we can get her back on her regular schedule.
-
@Cherrybee: ugh. We kept him up a little later last night to try to start moving it back to normal times and he still woke up at 4:30. His doctor had recommended last time that we use benadryl if we know he needs to sleep but is having trouble falling asleep...so we gave him a dose this am and laid with him for a bit. He went back to sleep until 7:45! He has NEVER slept until 7:45! Fingers crossed we can get him back on track....I can only imagine what throwing a newborn into the mix in a few weeks is going to do.
Hang in there momma
If you are at the end of your rope maybe talk with your ped. He had some great suggestions (and confirmed that I had literally tried EVERYTHING, which made me feel better haha)
-
I like this thread for the fact of knowing we aren't alone in the horrible sleep. I feel like all I ever hear about it good sleeping babies and it is hard when people ask me about our sleep.
DS is 21 months and just in the last month has started to STTN, after he weaned himself. It isn't every night though but it is getting more consistent. Now we are facing a lot of 4:30am wake ups, although we can usually get him back to sleep if we give him some milk and lay on the couch with him.
-
@Cherrybee: My husband deals with it, and it's usually not a huge deal. For a while it was needing to use the restroom, now it's that she's kicked the covers off. He's a night owl anyway, so it's not really a problem for us.
-
Oh my goodness, this thread terrifies me that I won't get consistent sleep for a few more YEARS... wahh! The idea of sleep training in a month or 2 and hopefully getting more sleep is the only thing that's keeping me going right now!
We had a blissful month of normal sleep, but lo just started the 4 am wake ups again this week. I could cry.
