4 Month shots - teething - reflux- growth spurt - oh my...

[penguino11]

No reflux, but month four has been the toughest for us so far. Shots weren't too bad this time but they didn't have one of them available so we gave to wait. His sleeping patterns changed from doing one six hour stretch a night to being up every two to three hours. And the teething, ugh!

[penguino11]

Oh yeah, and I'm pretty sure he started leap five a little early and he's totally a mommy's boy-cries when I step away or if he's not in my arms when I'm home.

Yeah, the 4 month everything was rough! No buds yet here, but he cries out randomly here and there so I'm guessing his gums hurt
I hate getting shots too. Of course my LO would be in the 25% that get fevers for 3 days. We just got out of 4th leap though, so hopefully sleep will get better...? I dunno.
On the plus side, he's giggling over everything more than he cries so it keeps our spirits up!

Fourth leap was tough for us - she screamed for like 2 hours every evening before bed. Lucky, we seem to have skipped the sleep regression, as she's wakes up one or two times each night to nurse, and that's never really changed. We've had very few miserable over-nights, thank God.

on the other hand, I'm actually kind of scared that maybe she'll experience sleep regressing a little later because she was born a couple weeks early? But if going by adjusted age, she'd be right where your daughter is, @giamia923, because her due date was 9/21. So, that's what my Wonder Weeks app tracks to.

I just have this sinking feeling that despite our bedtime struggles for a few months, our nights have been too good to be true?

judyblume14 due date twins here DS was born 9/10 though.

queenbabee Ugh, that sucks so sorry. Fevers are the worst, and I can't imagine having to deal with the shots too. Not fun.

And shots were better for us this time too. LO wasn't as clingy.
No reflux, but major drool and a little fussiness because of some tooth buds too. I constantly have to wash bibs.

@giamia923 we have birthday twins. due date was 9/15 but LO was born on 9/23

alioop1028 & @giamia923 the fevers do suck. The worst part was he got his second round of shots Decmber 23 and had a fever on Christmas eve and Christmas! Ugh. Poor mommy planning on my part.
Thank goodness for Tylenol

Oh no! Christmas is already stressful by itself.  Thank goodness for Tylenol indeed.
