Hi mummies, I am concern about my LO sleeping pattern she is currently 5 months old going to 6 month next week. Everyday she nap only abt 15 mins longest is 1 hour for four times a day, however these two days even worst like only 15 mins the longest. And at night she will find milk for every one hour, she never really wake up at night she just rub her face very rigorously and make noise until I breastfeed her or rock her to sleep. This night sleeping pattern have been going on for about two weeks already. Anybody experience this before? Should I be concern? And will it affect her development? She is still active just that a little bit more clingy and cranky than usual. Thank you :)

You may want to sleep train your lo. I engaged a sleep consultant from the US and sleep trained my lo at 5 weeks old because it was taking a toll on me. In the day, he only slept when being carried and at night he woke up every 1.5-2.5 hours. But I'm against CIO so I went to find out what other methods there were. Many people associate sleep training to CIO but there are gentler methods. Once he was sleep trained, it was a breeze, he learnt how to fall asleep on his own and only wakes up once a night now, definitely no regrets doing it.
