is this 4month sleep regression?

[an123]

hi, my lo is 16weeks. for the last week she has been waking up early hours of the morning,anytime between 3-7 sometimes every half hour or hourly, just screaming,sometimes it can take half an hour to resettle her. im not sure if it is due to her having a cold last week or whether she is going through the sleep regression?

can anyone pls advise me? what is the sleep regression all about? does it sound similiar to what i described? how long does it last etc? also i thought it didnt happen until week 19 or am i getting that confused with a wonder week?

thanks everyone xx

My LO has been the same for the last week, he is 16 weeks too.

Ive went from a sort of dream feed at 3am and straight back down to having to resettle him every hour or so, im knackered! I am really hoping it doesnt last forever x

it sounds like it to me, for me 14.5/15 weeks he turned into a nightmare and it lasted till 21 weeks.

ok now im super scared lol, anyone else have any better experience?lol. thanks nicole.x
its so funny i just kept trying to think of reasons for her waking and then it suddenly dawned on me at 1am lol. mind u saying that we had a much better night last night. she had a bottle at 6pm,bed at 7pm and slept till 1:15,she drank 5ounces and was asleep again by 1:30!! then she woke at 4:30 crying but soon went back off then woke at 6:15 for a bottle stayed awake for 20mins then finally woke for the day at 8am so a much better night x

Hiya, my DS is 16 weeks today and I wonder if he hit this sleep regression last week. We had a horrendous week!! screaming when we put him down, waking hourly and not wanting to go back down- it was very tough!!

The last 2 nights have been a bit better, he's only started waking hourly from 5.30, not all night! I just keep repeating "This too shall pass"!

Good luck xx
