How to deal with 4 month old sleep regression? Before this sleep regression set in, Bedtime is 8pm and I'll dream feed at 9.30pm. He will wake up again for feed at about 2am and around 6am. He used to be able to fall asleep in his cot by himself (with a night light in the room) or at most, with the use of a pacifier. Ever since about 1 week ago, he'll wake up shortly after putting him to sleep at bedtime and wake up many times throughout the night. Latching him to sleep, co-sleep, sleep nursing, pacifier, turning off the night light all doesn't work. I even tank him up with expressed bm, doesn't work too.

Hi!! Hope you won't mind if I borrow this response to a question regarding the use of pacifier. My baby has just turned 2 months. He used to fall asleep right after a bottle. But these days, he needs to be soothed. There are times where I will carry him and walk around the house, gentle rocking and shhh.. him. He is still refusing to fall asleep, but he clearly wants to sleep from his sleepy eyes and yawns. He gets cranky if we try to do activities with him or left him by himself. I will give him a pacifier to help him fall asleep. Would pacifier be ok for this period or is there a better way of managing this? Thanks.
