Sleep Disruption Troubleshooting

Common sleep challenges at this age

Teething Pain

When: Can begin around 4–6 months and continue through 24 months as teeth erupt.

Signs: Increased drooling, gum rubbing, irritability, refusal to feed, disrupted night sleep.

What helps: Offer a clean, chilled teething ring. Gently massage gums with a clean finger. Maintain consistent bedtime routines. If pain is severe, consult your pediatrician about appropriate pain relief.

Developmental Milestones

Common milestones: Rolling (~4–6m), sitting (~6m), crawling (~7–9m), pulling to stand (~9–11m), walking (~12–15m).

Impact: Babies may practice new skills at night, leading to disrupted sleep. Some may seem to "forget" how to sleep for 1–2 weeks.

What helps: Provide plenty of practice time during the day. Maintain routines. If baby gets stuck in a new position, gently help them resettle without fully picking them up.

These are typical ranges, not prescriptive targets. Always consult your pediatrician for questions about your baby's feeding, growth, health, or sleep concerns. Follow safe sleep guidelines: place babies on their back on a firm, flat surface with no loose bedding.
