Some phases are more difficult to move through than others, like that constant drooling phase or the non-stop sock-throwing period. But there is one phase that can cause a lot of sleepless nights for parents\u2014the sleep regression stage.<\/p>\n<p>If your little one was a powerful power napper and <a href=\"https:\/\/tinybeans.com\/how-to-tackle-baby-and-toddler-nap-time-like-a-boss\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">great at sleeping through the night<\/a>, but suddenly can only sleep in short bursts, don\u2019t panic. Sleep regression is a totally normal and, well\u2026sleepy event that occurs when your infant or toddler is going through a new developmental phase. Sleep regressions happen because <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.medicalnewstoday.com\/articles\/sleep-regression-stages\" rel=\"nofollow\">big-time emotional and cognitive milestones are taking<\/a> place. During the popular (and sleep depriving) 4-month sleep regression, changes like babies gripping toys (or chunks of your hair) and holding their heads up begin. In the 18-month non-sleeping phase, separation anxiety can play a part. Throughout any regression, a busy brain during the day can cause this sensory overload to continue into the night and disrupt your child\u2019s normal sleep patterns.<\/p>\n<h3>What is Sleep Regression?<\/h3>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/health.clevelandclinic.org\/the-4-month-sleep-regression-what-parents-need-to-know\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">According to the Cleveland Clinic<\/a>, signs your child is experiencing sleep regression can include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>waking up more at night<\/li>\n<li>increased fussiness<\/li>\n<li>limited naps<\/li>\n<li>taking longer to fall asleep.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The good news is this phase won\u2019t go on until your kiddo goes to college, as sleep regressions usually last anywhere from a few days to a few weeks. So, grab your cup of coffee, because here\u2019s a list of some of the biggest no-no\u2019s when it comes to supporting your little one through their latest stage.<\/p>\n<p><strong>1. Don\u2019t adjust your bedtime routine.<\/strong> Babies and toddlers love a good schedule, and <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/health.clevelandclinic.org\/bedtime-routine-for-babies\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">research shows maintaining a bedtime routine can help<\/a> your little one sleep better and with fewer wake-ups during the night. Improved sleep during a sleep regression stage is a welcome surprise which is why sticking with your normal bedtime routine is so important. Moving through your usual bath, book, and cuddle time allows your child to understand that this is what happens before bedtime\u2014all of the time. That stability allows your baby to read the cues you\u2019ve set (along with their bedtime book) and know it\u2019s time to settle in for a good night\u2019s sleep.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2. Don\u2019t put your kid in your bed.<\/strong> When your child isn\u2019t sleeping, this means you\u2019re not sleeping either. That\u2019s when all the ways to catch more z\u2019s trudge through your tired brain. One that invariably pops up is sharing your bed with your child.<\/p>\n<p>While bed-sharing might seem like a quick fix, it can create other sleep issues like confusing bedtime rituals and creating a sleep crutch. A sleep crutch like this can become a problem over time when your child can\u2019t fall asleep without you and your big bed\u2014until high school. Plus, when it comes to bed sharing with a baby, another big reason to skip this one is that <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.aap.org\/en\/news-room\/news-releases\/aap\/2022\/american-academy-of-pediatrics-updates-safe-sleep-recommendations-back-is-best\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) clearly warns against<\/a> it due to safety concerns.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. Don\u2019t put your baby to sleep awake.<\/strong> It\u2019s common for babies to go through more than just nighttime sleep changes during this 4-month phase. Has your baby been taking longer naps because he\u2019s getting less sleep at night? Or is your little one shortening all her day and night sleep times? These changes can influence how awake or drowsy your baby is for bed. Putting your baby in their safe sleeping space awake can make it harder for them to fall asleep. So, look for the sleepy time cues. <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/mcpress.mayoclinic.org\/parenting\/good-sleep-habits-in-infants-and-young-children\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">The Mayo Clinic says<\/a> signs your baby is drowsy are: drooping eyelids, rubbing of the eyes, and fussiness. Laying your baby in their sleepy space drowsy versus awake can ease them into a more restful night of sleep.<\/p>\n<p><strong>4. Don\u2019t push back bedtime. <\/strong>While in a sleep regression phase, sleep patterns are disrupted and that can throw all your sleep schedule dreams out of whack. During the day, babies (and napping toddlers) may sleep more or less than they normally have, but in order to compensate, this doesn\u2019t mean you need to adjust bedtimes. Continually making bedtime later can confuse sleep habits and contribute to shorter naps during the day. Maintaining your sleep schedule as best you can is a way to support your child through this phase and get you back on track faster when it\u2019s over.<\/p>\n<p><strong>5. Don\u2019t lie down with your child.<\/strong> During any sleep regression stage, your child can become super clingy. It\u2019s possible they\u2019re not a fan of sleeping without you close by and this can prove problematic as your need to soothe (and sleep) is strong. Lying down with your child can once again develop a sleep crutch where you find yourself in your kid\u2019s room staring at the ceiling long after the sleep regression is over. And remember, lying down with your infant can prove unsafe. The <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.aap.org\/en\/news-room\/news-releases\/aap\/2022\/american-academy-of-pediatrics-updates-safe-sleep-recommendations-back-is-best\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">AAP emphasizes the safest place for your baby to sleep<\/a> on their backs on flat non-inclined surfaces without soft bedding.<\/p>\n<p><strong>6. Don\u2019t leave on all the lights.<\/strong> Infants have spent most of their lives in darkness and lights from open curtains, or even a small bedside table lamp, can be stimulating, signaling to baby&#8217;s brain that it\u2019s wake-up time. The darker the room, the better to help your baby sleep deeper all through the night.<\/p>\n<p>For toddlers, leaving on all the lights won\u2019t aid in deep sleep, but during this phase a small nightlight might offer comfort. Childhood fears like monsters in the dark or giant mice eating big slices of cheese in shadowy corners become a thing <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.psychologytoday.com\/us\/blog\/perfectly-imperfect-parenting\/201807\/what-do-when-your-kid-is-scared-the-dark\" rel=\"nofollow\">around 2 years of age<\/a>. A nightlight can provide comfort and aid in your child\u2019s nighttime sleep.<\/p>\n<p><strong>7. Don\u2019t limit bottle feeds.<\/strong> For parents reading this at 3:46 a.m. during your baby\u2019s 4-month sleep regression, you might\u2019ve noticed there are big milestones happening, like vision improving and rolling over. With this increased activity may come an increased appetite. Feeding your baby during the day can help them feel fuller at night. It&#8217;s possible this can keep them from waking up for a midnight snack. At this age, babies <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.healthychildren.org\/English\/ages-stages\/baby\/feeding-nutrition\/Pages\/How-Often-and-How-Much-Should-Your-Baby-Eat.aspx\" rel=\"nofollow\">usually take 4 to 6 ounces per feeding.<\/a> And as always, remember to check in with your pediatrician if you have questions.<\/p>\n<p><strong>8. Don\u2019t do this alone.<\/strong> Parenting during a sleep regression phase asks a lot mentally and physically, so be sure to reach out to your partner, family member, or trusted friend and ask for support. Getting in that extra nap and practicing some self-care helps lower stress and increase your energy, so you\u2019ll be ready (and awake) to take care of your little bundle during all the phases to come.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You must resist.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":187728390,"featured_media":2204394,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"tags":[],"city":[14331571,551419385],"ml_tag_age":[700852499],"ml_tag_interest":[700860410,700859845,700852960,700852591,700853457,700854547,700853222,700859540,700859541,700859584],"ml_tag_season":[700852481],"ml_tag_holiday":[700852449],"class_list":["post-2178161","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-baby-help","category-parenting","category-sleeping","city-baby","city-national","ml_tag_age-adults","ml_tag_interest-bedtime-books","ml_tag_interest-bedtime-routine","ml_tag_interest-fall-asleep","ml_tag_interest-high-school","ml_tag_interest-self-care","ml_tag_interest-sensory-overload","ml_tag_interest-separation-anxiety","ml_tag_interest-sleep-habits","ml_tag_interest-sleep-regression","ml_tag_interest-sleep-schedule","ml_tag_season-fall","ml_tag_holiday-non-holiday"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v20.5 (Yoast SEO v22.0) -
