Waking up in the middle of the night at almost 7 months? Help me figure this out...

She's been sttn for over 5 months with the occasional night of waking up here and there but the last week or so she has been getting up between 3 and 5am. Not crying just whining and rolling around that sometimes will lead to crying.

The first few nights she did this I would just BF her and she would go right back to sleep until 7:30. But the last few DH has been getting up with her and just changing her and rocking her back to sleep and she will go back until 7:30.

So she's probably not hungry then right? Is it because she has a full diaper? That never seemed to bother her before though. WDYT?

Does she have any teeth that are close to coming in. I notice the only time dd gets up in the middle of the night is a week or two before a new tooth. Even then she isn't usually crying, just wakes up and talks to herself, sometimes for an hour or so!

I thought about teething but I don't feel anything coming in yet and she hasn't shown any signs of it in her behavior.

It could be teething.

I'm in teething hell right now with my 13 month old.

She has been STTN since 8 weeks old and Sunday night/Monday morning was a nightmare.

I finally went in at 5am and she was inconsolable. By the time I figured out it was probably teething related, and gave her motrin, she settled down about 30 minutes later (never did go back to sleep though).

Gave her motrin before bed last night, and she slept fine. She did go down sucking on her hands and her sleep sack (which she never does), so I have to assume it's teething related.

Definitely teething. That's around when it started for us. Now, at 15 months, DD is starting to get her molars and we're starting alllllll over again Chat Icon

I just have to say that I think we have the same baby. I feel like all of your recent posts perfectly describe my munchkin as well. Chat Icon Chat Icon

Well I guess it is teething then, but wouldn't she show other signs if it was teething? Like excessive drooling, hands always in mouth, etc...
