So my baby gets fussy in the night and doesn’t like being in his cot and will only settle on me. I’m really struggling to stay awake and catch myself almost nodding off with him in my arms and it terrifies me. I end up having to just put him in his cot and just hope that he falls asleep in there with me just comfort...
My baby girls 11 weeks tomorrow and I feel like life’s suddenly turned upside down! A few weeks ago I knew when she’d fall asleep, when she’d want fed, how long she’d sleep at night and it feels like overnight I don’t have a clue what her routine is anymore! She’s fussy, I can’t get her to nap longer than 20 mins an...
anyone else in the sleep regression trenches 😭
Does anyone actually sleep in the day at all to catch up on some sleep? Everyone always telling me to sleep when the baby sleeps but that’s when I do the things I can’t do when I’m attending to her or that’s when I sit down for a bit to eat or whatever so I can’t ever nap in the day even though I’m only getting abou...
Anyone else all of a sudden having sleep issues? My son only just started sleeping through the night at 13 months. Now the past two weeks he’s been up every night at 1 AM and after rocking him to sleep and putting him back in the crib, he immediately wakes back up. He’ll fall right asleep as soon as we bring him int...
Hi all My 15 week old son won’t nap but once we are hitting afternoon he is wailing like a whinge non stop not proper crying and rubbing face but won’t sleep ? This only started in last few days Also now waking twice at night when he did sleep through Is this the sleep regression ? Thank you x
My LG naps with her comforter and does really well but I am watching her on the monitor. I’m cautious about allowing her it at night as all the safe sleep advice etc warns against it. Is anyone allowing their LO to sleep at night with a comforter or teddy?
My little girl is 6 weeks coming up 7 on Thursday and she sleeps amazing in the night, wakes up for feeds and goes back down so nicely after with little to no fuss, buttt in the day she literally won’t nap it’s almost as if shes fighting it, anyone else? Idk what else to do, I feed, change, and play then try putting...
My LO is 9 days old and often makes noises like this in her sleep. It’s not all the time but it’s a lot and keeps me awake worrying. We have our 10 day midwife appointment tomorrow so I’ll mention it then… I know newborns make noises but I can’t help but worry (hormones I imagine)
I am feeling angry and frustrated with my 13 month old. I have a feeling I'm not the only one feeling frustrated with their 1 year old just fighting a nap or just straight up. Keep messing about when it is supposed to be a nap tine. I thought they already had that "sleep regression" but I guess it can happen when...
Do you co-sleep with your baby? I read that co-sleeping is a cultural preference. I know most medical professionals (🇺🇲) advise against it. What are your thoughts?
How often does your baby wake up at night?? I need to feed my girl twice 🙃 would like if she slept through the night, which she does every now and then. Any recommendations?
My soon to be 4 month old will only nap on me all of a sudden. I’ve tried everything. Every time I put her down she wakes up and then wants to go through the cycle of nursing to sleep again, so it’s just easier to let her nap on me, but I don’t eat or get anything done. Help!
Do you always lay your baby on his/her back? Or do you combine it with sleeping on their tummy?
I took my daughter to the dentist for the first time today. She is 2.5 years old. They told me she had a slight overbite due to her using a dummy (at night time only). Any advice on how I can wean her off the dummy 🫣 or do I just get rid of it completely??
We have a formula fed 9 week old, and are waking her up at 1-2am for her middle of the night feed after putting her down around 9pm. I’m thinking about seeing how long she can go without waking her. Wondering what your experiences have been?
I’m trying to get my baby to sleep in his crib for nap times. We will continue to co sleep at night though! Has anyone tried the Ferber method for sleep training? I feel bad for even considering this, but I need my baby to start sleeping in his crib more. Don’t get me wrong, I loooove his snuggles when he’s nappin...
Hi all, My daughter tends to not nap much anymore, when she does she will go to bed around 7:30/8:30 but when she doesn’t nap she’s ready around 5/5:30pm. So one day I decided to try it to see if it worked and it did! She slept from about 5:15-8! And we’ve done it a few times now when she’s been really tired, what...
Anyone's little one down to just one nap? Ours has been fighting both of his naps for the last couple weeks but still sleeps through. He is cutting another tooth, but each time before he was also having terrible night sleep. What do your current routines look like? How are you fitting in a midday nap plus lunch?
My baby is 10 months, she gets up multiple times at night. I am so sleep deprived but have always struggled to nap in the day even when i try which is so exhausting, I think the anxiety of the never ending to do list stops me from sleeping (prepping 3 meals a day for baby, cooking for me and husband and all the othe...
