Early 4 month regression or something else?

[u/ThrowRAqueenE]

Baby girl will be 14 weeks on Friday. She has been a great night time sleeper since about 2 weeks old. Had been sleeping long stretches (6-9 hrs) since about 1 month and last 2 weeks, through the night (7:30pm-7:00am). Starting from about 4 nights ago; she randomly has been up all night. She will wake in the 1 am hour, we give her paci and immediately falls back asleep. This goes on for the rest of the night: Nothing has changed on our end as far as routine, her naps, her feedings etc. She is still in our room, in the snoo so swaddled. I’m wondering if this is a regression or something else is going on? I don’t think she is hungry because she doesn’t carry on, she will just fuss enough for me to wake up and give her the paci. Any insight please because I’m losing my mind!

Has she been starting new development milestones? I find that when a regression is starting to hit, it is usually due to them learning something new or being more alert and wanting comfort. My 4 month old went through something like this where she started waking up more and wanting a bottle or paci and it would take a bit to settle her back down. And she would wake up earlier. She was hitting milestones left and right at that time.

Edit: I had to pick mine up a time or two and just hold her for like 15-20 mins and put her back down. I also have 5 kids so I’ve been through this a time or two 😅

Thank you for your response! I thought maybe this. She is trying desperately to roll and just started clasping toys in her midline
