abinayavMom of a 10 yr 3 m old boy1 Year agoA. This sleep thing is totally normal for a 5-month-old. My little one went through the same thing. It's like their bodies are suddenly going through a growth spurt or something. I know it's tough, but it's just a phase.
I remember feeling so tired and stressed. But you know what helped me? The my little moppet website. Yes I got some good tips to make my baby sleep. It's really sounds good.
These are some of the tips that is can cause and comfort your baby.
1.During the 5-month sleep regression, a little extra comfort can go a long way to help sleep problems.
A lightly weighted swaddle (if baby isn’t rolling over yet) or sleeping bag will help keep her calm and cozy while falling asleep.
2. This growth spurt makes the baby extra hungry. When feeding your baby it is not uncommon for babies to experience an increase in appetite during the time. So feed on demand.
3. Any extra noise is going to distract baby from sleep so be vigilant and remove all the distracting noises.
Always follow your schedule of routine so that the baby could come back to his routine of sleeping once this period is over.
Hope this helps you.

AbhayaMom of a 15 yr 8 m old boy4 years agoA. Hi mom
Very small babies have Different sleep pattern. They will follow proper sleep pattern as they grow up.
If ur baby is active and comfortable otherwise, passing out urine 6-8 times in a day, gaining weight then that means ur baby is taking sufficient feed.
