6 month sleep regression?
My DS is 6 months old today. The past week his sleep has stunk. He never was a fantastic sleeper gave me 6 hour stretches. Now he is up practically every 2-3 hours. Any ideas what this is?

Growth spurt I would guess. This happened to DD around that age too, I think it's pretty typical. Don't worry, I'm sure he will get back into his routine soon though you may need to "force" him back into a routine. We needed to do CIO again with DD though I'm not sure at what age, might have been around that time. Our Ped told us she no longer needed that night feeding so we did 2 nights of CIO and she has been doing 11-12 hours ever since.

Re: 6 month sleep regression?
Is it possible he needs more to eat during the day? Is he waking up hungry?

Re: 6 month sleep regression?
He is breastfeeding so I don't know how much he is getting. He stops himself when full on the breast. He spits up plenty so I know he is getting milk. He doesn't want to eat every two but prob every 4-5 hours. It's strange bc at night I put him in crib and he is awake and is able to put himself to sleep. We recently started solids. Actually this all started when we started solids whom is weird!

Is he gassy? Or crying like hes in any pain? Whats the latest he eats solid food?
Could also be growth spurt? My dd did this at about 6 months and she was going through a growth spurt and then ended up with a bad chest cold. But her sleep started to detoriate for a few days before the cold really came out.
