Waking after just 2 hours is exhausting overnight. Neither you or your baby are getting the rest you need!
Most babies wake between sleep cycles (every 1โ2 hours) but if your baby needs help every single time, thatโs why youโre stuck in the cycle ๐ด
Most people will just say "They're just hungry" but it is often more than that.
It usually comes down to things like:
โจ Sleep associations (feeding, rocking, dummy)
โจ Wake windows being off
โจ No consistent routine
And while feeding or rocking back to sleep works in the momentโฆ it makes your baby feel they need this EVERY time they wake.
So they continue to wake and need you every 1-2 hours. It's exhausting!
But it is possible to change this, I've done it!
It's probably the most common issue parents come to me with. I've helped parents of baby's under 6 months, go from 5 wakes to just 1. Or, a 12 month old moving to no wakes! ๐๐ผ
