Magnesium for sleep? HELP

I have and I’m so sorry (for myself and you) to say that it hasn’t made any difference for us. Give it a try though and see if it helps! Ours has never slept though either and is currently waking hourly 🥲

Hi Jess, mine is the same, wakes every hour during the night looking for the boob and he's never slept through, the most we've had is 3 hours at a time. On day 3 of organic magnesium butter by Sweet Bee organics and last night he slept for 5 hours in a row. I'm not sure if it's a combination of things or just that. I feel like most of his canines and molars are fully through now but he also isn't well so could be being knocked out by that but I'm going to keep putting the butter on and hopefully we keep seeing an improvement 🤞🏼

@Megan oh no I feel you 🥲🥲 I was thinking of just trying it anyways as it doesn’t seem to be expensive! My partner & I was both trying to get her to sleep last night and she didn’t have a sleep until 1pm today so wake at 2:30am - 1pm and she only slept for 40mins 🥲🥲🥲

@Jess you poor thing. I feel sick for you. Honestly it’s awful and you start wondering what you did wrong in another life or something 😂. We have frequent wakes and split nights at the moment. Sorry you’re having such long wakes. Sounds like she’s gone nocturnal?! Sympathy! Xx

@Rosie not sure if you’ve tried this or if you’d be able but a friend of mine had two little boys who both were waking her up every hour or two. One is now 7 the other 2. She got me to try my lo sleeping with my husband. Took a few weeks for him to settle but he’s already had a couple of nights in the past couple of months wheee he’s slept through. Turned out he could smell me and it was a comfort thing. I can now be in the same room as him and he’s not screaming for me. Just thought I’d mention as I felt beyond awful with lack of sleep and nothing we’d tried had worked

Sorry to hear that! Split nights are awful! When my LO was doing it I brought his bed time later and later so he was basically going to sleep at midnight rather than waking up then and then once that was okay I brought it back an hour every day or so! Just thought I’d mention incase that helps! My LO has never slept through and wakes every 2 hours but I remember having anxiety over split nights so I feel for you ❤️

@Rosie thanks for the recommendation! Going to give this a try too! Do you rub it just on your LO’s feet or whole body?

What is your routine like? Often split nights are due to too much overall sleep in 24,hrs? X

Try calm magnesium powder. The lotion did squat for us. But the powder has been helpful. Or it's coincidence idk lol

@Megan it’s awful isn’t it when you’re so sleep deprived! Hope it gets better for you! X

@Ceylan thank you! Yeah it’s so hard isn’t it!!x

@Rosie hey! Yes I have seen this butter everywhere on my instagram! I will give this a go…hope your nights get better🩷 and thank you for recommendation xx
