Waking in the middle of the night...

Mason is 7 months and has been STTN since about 4.5 - 5 months. The last three days he's been getting up around 3:30ish AM and just works on the new things he's learning. It's kinda cute, but I'm hoping it's a short phase.

I don't have to go in there or anything, but I wake up b/c I hear him and watch him on the monitor. He starts to sing and talk to himself doing the "Da Da Da Da Da Da"
and then he gets on his knees and tries to practice crawling. After about 10 mins or so of playing and rolling around and more talking he goes back to sleep.

Anyone else have this?
Thanks!

Re: Waking in the middle of the night...

completely normal, if he goes back to sleep and u don't have to go in there, count your blessings, and just let it ride out..Chels would wake up do that and then start crying bc she wanted to be rocked, we eventually had to do a modified version of CIO

Re: Waking in the middle of the night...

I think this is really common. Chloe would practice sitting up and standing up. She didn't put herself back to sleep though like Mason - Your lucky! It should pass... Their sleep tends to get disrupted for a few days when they reach a milestone or go through a growth spurt.

Thanks! Two nights he went to sleep on his own. Just one night only thing I had to do was go in to give him his paci. Hopefully he goes back to STTN. I don't mind watching how cute he is in the monitor, but it's also 3:30AM LOL
