What is the 4-Month Sleep Regression?

The 4-month sleep regression is a permanent change in your baby's sleep patterns that occurs around 3-5 months. Unlike other regressions, this one represents your baby's sleep cycles maturing to become more like an adult's. This means more frequent wake-ups and lighter sleep periods.

Common Signs:

  • Frequent night wakings (every 2-3 hours)
  • Short naps (30-45 minutes)
  • Difficulty falling asleep
  • More fussiness and crying

Why It's Different:

  • Permanent sleep cycle changes
  • Brain development milestone
  • Increased environmental awareness
  • Perfect time to start sleep training

Why 4 Months is the Perfect Time for Sleep Training

While the 4-month regression can be challenging, it's actually the ideal time to establish healthy sleep habits. Your baby's sleep cycles have matured enough to learn independent sleep skills.

Start Sleep Training Now

Don't wait for the regression to "pass" - it won't. Instead, use this time to teach your baby the skills they need for lifelong healthy sleep. Our gentle, proven methods work with your baby's new sleep patterns, not against them.
