GO TO SLEEEEEP!! - New Moms

~~felifreshh~~ · 10-26-2009, 07:36 AM

Ever sense I got Maddox back he keeps waking up at 5am! No matter what I do he will NOT go back to sleep until 9 or 10!! I don't know what to do! I'm exhausted!!

Does anyone have any tips or advice to get him to go back to sleep or STAY asleep?

sounds like hes ready to be awake. What time at night is he going to sleep? Sleeping through the night for a baby is like 5 hours. If your getting 5 hours your lucky

I don't knwow what to tell you he might just be up dd doesn't sleep past 730 but wakes up twice onces at 330-430 and again at 630 but eats and sleeps ( she nurses at night) she sleeps poorly throughout the day but great at night

No advice to give you. It sounds like he is ready to be awake. Hayden sleeps through the night and wakes up anywhere between 6-8. If he is ready to be awake at 6, there's nothing I can do to force him to go back to sleep until 9 or 10. I just get started with my day

Yup. His schedule changed. You just need to change with it.

Exactly.

It is part of being a mom. You have to change at times.

I was up at 4 am with my youngest and didn't go back to bed until 6. Up again at 7 with the oldest.

Sleep when he sleeps.

It gets better as they get older. Bella would range from 4am-8am around Maddox's age. Once he's back on a normal schedule it will help a lot! If Bella's day is routin she generally goes to sleep around 7-8 and wakes up initially at 4 but goes back to sleep until 7 or 8.

Carter wakes up super early sometimes, and I just keep putting him back in his crib. I don't really want him to wake up before 6.
