My 7 month old wont sleep through the night yet wh?'

[Toad421]

My 7 month old is not sleeping through the night yet and I have tried as much as I can to get her to sleep through the night. I just want to know what else i can try to help her sleep all night.

she's probably hungry. Does she want to eat when she wakes up in the middle of the night? Or does she want to play?

Have you tried a routine? Bath, cuddle, bottle, rocking, then night night? I hear this is supposed to work pretty well. Maybe she is used to you coming in to soothe her back to sleep? If she knows you're coming; she'll continue to get up. Have you tried letting her "cry it out"? I know it can seem like tuff love, but it has worked for many. Usually only takes a few very long and hard nights before they get the picture.
Both my kids slept through the night very early on (5 weeks and 8 weeks). I swaddled them nice and tight, kept the room dark and cool, and played a white noice. They were pretty big babies though, so I'm sure this helped.
Good luck. I know this can be frustrating. My nephew finally started sleeping through the night at 9 months and still gets up VERY early. Some kids just take longer then others.

My baby has slept thru the night since 3 mos old. Shes now 10 mos but occasionally wakes up once in the middle of the night too. She has the same routine before bed everynite. She plays upstairs, we put her pjs on, brush her teeth and put her to bed with a bottle. How many times is she getting up? Sometimes when i hear Ava crying in the middle of the night i wait a min before getting her because once in a while shes just having a nightmare and isnt crying because she needs something...and then shell fall asleep on her own.

Routine! Routine! Routine! My husband and I have always set up a nighttime routine with our 3 kids! They are fabulous sleepers! In fact all of them ask to go to bed at night if for some reason they are up later than their bedtime. We credit this to a strict routine. At 7 months, your daughter should be eating enough during the day that she does not require night time feedings. You can try to cry it out method if you have the patience, its hard but it does work! Also, at first when she wakes, go in a try to soothe her without picking her up. For example, rubbing her back or singing a song. Good luck! Soon she will be sleeping thru the night! Also, NEVER PUT THE BABY TO SLEEP WITH A BOTTLE!! IT RUINS THERE TEETH!!! tHAT IS A VERY BAD HABIT YOU SHOULD NEVER START! Just a little advice!! Good luck!
