We got through the 4-month regression with difficulty—is it likely we'll experience regression again in the coming months?

Yes, it's likely. Sleep regressions in babies generally align with developmental leaps and most commonly occur around 4, 8-9, and 18 months. Getting through the 4-month regression doesn't mean the later ones will be easier—each regression stems from a different skill (like crawling or separation anxiety). But here's the good news: having successfully managed one regression means both you and your baby will face these periods more consciously. A consistent routine and flexibility will remain your strongest tools.
