4 - 6 months 4 m regression is INSANE

Baby turning 4 months in three days and I am assuming we are in full on regression mode because he is now waking EVERY HOUR. I would KILL for a 3 hour stretch at this point.

How do people survive this? Is the only way little one will come out of it to sleep train? Or will he figure it out on his own with time? He doesn’t sleep independently fwiw.

For is it was a little of both. We sleep trained for bedtime only and after a week nighttime waking became less frequent and after a couple weeks we were down to only 1 wake up most nights. During night wakings I’d give baby about 5 mins to cry/fuss and if he was still awake I’d nurse him back to sleep.

Every baby is so different though!
