See How We Can Help ↓What is the 6-Month Sleep Regression?
The 6-month sleep regression typically occurs between 5-7 months and is often triggered by major developmental leaps including sitting up, rolling, and sometimes teething. Unlike the 4-month regression, this one is temporary and usually lasts 2-6 weeks.
Common Triggers:
- Learning to sit up
- Rolling over consistently
- Teething discomfort
- Growth spurts
Signs You'll Notice:
- More frequent night wakings
- Difficulty settling for naps
- Early morning wake-ups
- Practicing new skills in crib
