My son is nearly 22 months and sleep is still a nightmare. He’s never slept through and is still waking in the night for a bottle. His day naps seem to be fine and as expected 1.5-2 hours. We were doing bed time routine 6.30, bed for 7 and he was going down well, awake and self settling to sleep. Since the clocks ch...
I don't want opinions, just advice from moms who've sleep trained their little ones. I started sleep training my girl when she turned 7 months old. She was waking up way too many times and it was getting out of control. I got to a point where I wasn't able to get up to get my older kids ready for school anymore. I ...
My sweet girl is pacifier freee !!! I’m so proud of her. Nobody ever told me once you take the paci away less of everything ends up in their mouths lmao
Hi all, I am trying to implement a 4-5 month old feeding and nap schedule with my baby boy, however obviously this doesn’t always go to plan as he is just a 5 month old baby not a robot. I feel very guilty but I get so frustrated if he wakes early in the morning and I have to add a 4th nap or he wakes early from...
Hi guys. So my 20 month old is still in his cot because he moves around quite a lot still, is it time to change him to a toddler bed with a duvet or should I wait still? Not quite sure what to do. I want to try and get him in the toddler bed before his brother/sister arrives in Oct. Thank you 😊
When did you transition your little one from your bedroom to their own at night ??
Anyone else’s little ones out there struggling with silent reflux? LO is 7 weeks and isn’t able to lie down on his back at all, will only sleep upright on mine or my husbands chest Tired gaviscon and now using omeprazole but doesn’t seem to be doing the trick We’re not getting any sleep 😴 how is everyone else coping??
My little girl has always been a pretty solid sleeper apart the usual teething/illness, but in the last couple weeks she wakes up multiple times during the night and won’t settle unless she’s in our arms. If she’s put down and shushed/bum patted (which used to work a treat) she goes absolutely crazy and screams in...
Is anyone else’s baby spinning round in their cots? My girly keeps waking her self up because she’s going round and getting stuck! I read it can be because she’s started rolling round but she’s getting stuck length ways in her cot and not rolling over in her sleep! Any ideas on how to stop it or to help her? Thanks!😄
How are those in the same situation coping? We’re not even getting a decent stretch at the start of the night now, maybe 2 hrs if we’re really lucky 😢 been going on for a few weeks now with no end in sight!
Am I a snob/ Karen for not loving this? We’re looking for a new childminder for my little one and so many nap their kids in prams. My little chick naps 2 hours in the afternoon and a pram just doesn’t feel like it would give good sleep? Do I need to chill out 😂🫠
Anyone else still going through this? He finishes all bottles in the day but still wakes up once in the night and doesn’t go down unless I feed him 😩I try for ages to put him back to sleep… jealous of the mums who’s babies sleep through! Mine used to but is now getting up again x
What type of bed does your 3 year old have
Is anyone else in the same boat where they only have 1 bedroom and baby doesn’t have their own room yet? We live in London and it’s still expensive even just to have our flat. We are looking to move to somewhere bigger but at the moment baby is still in our room and I feel guilty that he doesn’t have his own room ...
Do you help your baby back to sleep (giving dummy back/holding putting down etc.) when their naps exceed 30-45 mins? My boy on average does 40-45 min naps on his own but never more without some intervention which is often dummy falling or waking up after one cycle so I hold him rock a bit and put down again. I wo...
Hey everyone, my little girl is 7 months & I have been co sleeping for the last few months because she hated her next to me crib and always wanted to snuggle up & hold hands in the night. But my struggle is she is still such a bad sleeper & I am going back to work and I’m exhausted to the level of panic attacks and ...
