   if your baby had been sleeping through the night before 6 months when they got to 6 months did they start waking during the night?

   Daniel goes through stages of not sleeping through, this past week for example hasn't been that great, waking up several times a night. But he'll go back to sleeping through again once whatever bugged him is gone.

   Elle didn't sleep through at all until 8mths but I remember lots of people talking about a phase of walking at 4mths and 6mths.

   T has slept through the night since 10weeks and has just started waking up once he just turned 6 months old. Fingers crossed its just a phase!

   Kryssi did this (my other girls didn't sleep thru until later). There were a couple of times, caused by hunger (needed solids), then not feeling well (sniffles), then seemed like a good idea (had to CIO   ). All the best for finding the answer!

   James did this to and I got him into the habit of having a feed again in the middle of the night again so it lasted a while until I got tough with him then he started sleeping through again.

   Tom started sleeping through at 5 1/2 months and apart from the odd night (dirty nappy) he's been great!

   By the time she was 3 months Ella was sleeping thru.....then a growth spurt hit and she got used to night feedings and now STILL wakes up in the middle of the night for a feed (or 2)

   Has Megan started waking again?  Blair started sleeping thru late January, and has started waking again during the night in the last 3 weeks, so I don't know if the sleep thrus were were a fluke, or he hit growth spurt.

   Yep for the last three weeks Madison has been waking twice a night. Hopefully she will go back to sleeping through again soon.

   Its happened with all my coffee group I think (12 bubs) between 4-6 months and on-going for some of them.  Jake started waking again about 4.5 months (needed solids) then about 5.5 months (sore tum) and got in a habit of waking and not being able to self settle for a few weeks, then slept thru from 6 months (after 2 nights of tough love) til his teeth were bothering him recently (about 2 weeks of waking but thankfully it was usually about 10.30/11pm then slept til 7am), and is sleeping thru again now.
 
I'm wondering if he will ever sleep thru for more than a month or two at a time now!!!!
