The 4 month sleep regression monster has invaded our home. Apparently this is a time when babies are learning so much that they like to practice throughout the night (and sometimes during nap time as well). They also are becoming very aware of there surroundings and want to play and interact during the night as well. While I am all for my little man learning new things I am ready to sleep through the night again. I am sure this is just a phase and he will go back to his normal sleeping self after he has mastered a few new skills. In the mean time I will be walking around like a zombie.1.17.2011

Happened here too...but it only lasted about 2 or three weeks I think and it wasn't everyday. Unless she was screaming I just tried to let her work it out herself in her crib...many times she was able to fall back to sleep but it was after about 20 minutes of me listening to her "talk" and fuss a little. It won't help with your sleep but it should help the little guy get back into the swing of things. When she got really upset I'd go in and soothe her or - if desperate - nurse her. Good luck!
