[quote=Anonymous]DD is about to be 4 months old and she's been pretty easy until now. I know we're hitting the 4 month sleep regression but not so sure what to do about it. My older child is 5.5. years old (and a great sleeper) so I seem to have forgotten everything!

Right now I am putting baby to sleep around 7:30pm and she does a long stretch to about 1:30am. But then she is up every 2 hours. 
So last night was:
7:30 
1:30
3:30
5:30 (and we got up for the day)

Before this she was going to be later like 9pm and waking at 2 or 3 am and then again at 6am. Which was great. It was like one wake-up essentially. But now she is sleepier earlier so the bedtime moved up and everything  is off.

How do I get rid of that 3:30am wakeup? Last night she wasn't really crying just fussing and kicking so I let her be for a while to see if she would settle on her own, but then she did start crying so I fed her quickly and put her back down. I'm not a fan of cold-turkey CIO and didn't do it with older DD. But I am okay with some crying / teaching to self-soothe. I just can't remember how I did it last time. She is EBF and over 15lbs FWIW.

Tips and tricks?!
