Except the sleeping issues. Not fixed and now he is 5 months old😅
I don’t know why we even bother with defining the regressions by month, it mostly feels like one continuous regression with a couple breathers mixed in.
Going through the 8 month one now and it blows. Hard.
This is so cute and relatable, thank you for posting!
At 7.5 months my son starting crying constantly and then one day he was sitting from a laying down position, crawling, pulling himself up to standing, walking holding his play fence, saying “Mama” and 2 teeth (his first ones) popped through too. It literally happened all in the same day and freaked me out haha.
The only thing missing is the pre reboot big head and proportional body size upgrade.
This comic makes it so much cuter than it feels like in real life haha.
Our 5mo’s latest update is jabber yelling. Woo!
I am not going to lie, it carries on like this for a while. My 2 year old has just been through a major one and it is exactly the same. Two months of constant crying, frustration, early wakes and suddenly she is waking at 7am, talking sentences, understanding empathy. It really is incredible!
I have PTSD from the 4 month sleep regression… My boy is almost 7 months now and there is already a major improvement. Good luck.
Mine just hit 4 months and he’s Furious he can’t sit up yet. It’s so sad that he gets so frustrated, yet so adorably funny.
Yup, just settled my 12 m/o back into bed for the 7th time in 2 hours. We were able to sleep train her a few weeks ago and were doing well. It is a phase, this too shall pass. I’m willing to break the “rules” for a few nights to help her through it.
The most relatable thing I’ve ever seen
We just hit 4 months and it’s no fun most of the time. Struggles drinking, struggles sleeping, struggles not getting overwhelmed.
I feel this with every inch of me right now
