My baby boy is 6 months old now and he has problem sleeping throughout the night. I joined work when he was 4 months old. He used to sleep well(gwt up only once or twice for his feed) untill some 15 days back. Now he gets up almost every 2 hrs, he just tosses and turns , cries to be fed but goes back to sleep in 5-10 mins. He literally comes to me and starts lifting his arms for me to pick him up even though his eyes are closed. Could this be because i'm not there during the day (gone for 8 hrs). he must be missing me and feeling insecure?? He stays well with the maid, infact quite attached to her as well. Please reply if someone facing similar problem or knows the solution. Asima Mishra replied. please check how long he is sleeping during daytime? instruct ur maid to play with the baby as much as possible and give him solid food before bed time. my baby had the same problem and i am also working. now he is sleeping well in nignt after a good play in the day time. Ketaki replied. my baby girl faced a simalar problem...then i discovered that in winters also she does'nt like to sleep with her feet covered ....so when i just let her be ...she slept through the night...so check if u r covering him too much...all the best Hi replied. Only thing I would check is the Maid.

Has anything on her side changed? Would be nice to have someone else take case of the baby for a few days and see of things become better.
