Sleep regression

My little boy has went from sleeping 8pm - 4am (wake 1), then 4:30am - 6:00am (wake for the day) to now waking 6 - 8 times a night.

Nap regression

Is anyone experiencing a nap regression at the moment? Naps were so terrible for us pre 12 months so i’m finding this really triggering. But since 12 months my son has started consistently doing 1.5-2 hour naps (1 a day). But for the last two days he has only managed 45 minutes and he is fighting them. Nothing else...

Are we amidst dropping naps?

2 year 3 months and she isn’t happy in her cot any more in day, she’ll lie down then just ask me to get her up after about 15 mins? She is tired but she’s definitely changed these past couple of weeks and doesn’t seem as tired like more switched on and just nattering to herself.

Falling asleep at breast

Has anyone had their baby constantly falling asleep whilst feeding? My 12 week old can barely stay awake whilst feeding, this is new and really concerning me. She has hunger cues when wakening up and I spent nearly four hours trying to keep her awake to eat and then eventually caved in and she drank 150mls of formul...

Next to Me or Cot

My LG is 4.5 months and outgrown her Moses basket. We have a next to me but im just wondering if we skip that and go straight for the cot (I’m thinking the petite cot from M&P as we don’t have a huge amount of room). She will still be in our room until at least 1 year (I think). Has anyone else move to the cot at ...

Weight and nappies

How much dose you LO's weight and what size nappy do you use? My girl constantly leak at night and we are using size 6 nappies which I believe may be too small for her to hold all the urine. My husband said they fit her perfectly and any size up will be too big for her
