Baby sleeping in the same room
Show your support
It’s way too young for them to be sleeping in their own room. Maybe find an article online about why it’s important for them to stay in with you until 6 months and send it to him to get the message through x
Yes, quite risky to let baby sleep alone at this stage. They regulate their breathing by hearing yours, so higher risk of SIDS if in own room. Can’t he lock the cats out of the other room? Otherwise he could try earplugs, etc…
So many articles online about the importance of them staying in the same room as you to reduce the risk of SIDS. Have a look at Lullaby Trust. It sounds like your partner needs to go and sleep in another room if he is that bothered. No offence, but you cannot expect a 10 week old baby to not disturb you. Crying is their only form of communication at this age
I sleep in the spare room with mine so my hubby can sleep for work ? Is this not an Option ??
I'm sorry but some of the things people say on here about dads is shocking, I mean what did he expect. As said above your baby needs to be in the same room as you until they learn to regulate their own breathing at 6 months. This is important for all naps and particularly the long stretch at night. Personally I'd tell your partner that his babies life is so important that you can't believe he's even asking. My husband has had a few days where he's said he's struggled at work because of being tired and has apologised for leaving me to it but asked if I mind him going to sleep in a different room, he'd never suggest us moving. Our toddler finds this really funny too as she woke up to find him in with her. Could your partner not put a bed in what will be the babies room and keep the door closed, surely cats aren't in there anyway. Or a spare room and keep them out.
I sleep in the week in the spare room either my little 9 week old boy to let my hubby sleep. Definitely don’t let little one sleep alone x
Just get your partner to wear ear plugs!!!
I come from an Asian family where I slept in the same bed as my parents and he was put in a different room before 1 month old. I'm definitely not having him in a different room. He has 2 options for where he can sleep, a loft room or lounge. Can't keep the cats out of either. The baby room is too small for a bed. I will suggest ear plugs.
I thought it was from 6 months you could do this .. he needs just to suck it up, the baby comes first. ❤️
No it’s way too young to go into their own room, they say to keep them in your room for the first 6 months! I’d say if he keeps moaning about him why doesn’t he find somewhere else to sleep.
