Is there such thing as a 'sleep regression' at 4 months old?

Question

My 4 month old seems to be waking up so much more at night than she used to. Sometimes, it's to eat, but mostly, just fussing for a few minutes. She used to sleep 7-8 hour stretches at a time, but now, she will wake up every couple of hours and start fussing. Is this normal? Thanks so much!

Answer 1

sadly, yes, it is very normal. babies go through all sorts of sleep patterns that first year. of course, some are more consistent, others more erratic. but until about 10-12 months, expect lots of back and forth.  

Answer 2

Yup.

Expect progressions, regressions, the whole 9 yards.

Right now one of my twins is regressing BIGTIME and she's 14 months old.  I'm dying over here.
