Bryce was sleeping all night (6-8 hours) before our trip, but now he is waking up every 2-3 again! I am exhausted, I'm thinking he either needs more food (introduce rice cereal?) or I've really got to be firm with a schedule. Has anyone heard of babies doing this around 4 months? Any advice would be great!

Hey Julia! Sometimes a trip can mess up a baby's sleep schedule. Also, when Julianne was about 3.5 months old she started doing this again too. She had been sleeping 9-10 hours and then started waking up 1 or 2 times a night. She did this for about two weeks then started sleeping longer again. Sometimes they're just going through a growth spurt where they need a little more food. I remember and still experience the feeling sometimes of being sleep deprived and frustrated that the baby is not sleeping longer, but usually it won't last long (although it may seem long at the time). Anyway, that is my bit of advice. Take it or leave it. I love the pictures you've posted! We miss you guys lots!

We started giving rice cereal at 4 months per the doctor's reccomendations. Maybe you could ask your doctor about it when you go for his check up!
hey 4 months is a typical time for a growth spurt. He might just be hungrier.
Also when you start cereal just make sure it's whole grain brown rice, not some refined junk. :)
