My son has been going through this phase for months and months now, he wakes up in the middle of the night shouting for mummy on 3 or 4 occasions and I will put him back to bed but eventually I just give in and put him in our bed! I am in my 3rd trimester and I am absolutely exhausted, bed times are hard work as he ...

What is everyone’s bedtime routine? I want to make the best bedtime routine for my 5 month old to sleep longer stretches (currently waking every 2hrs she is breastfed) but sometimes she won’t go straight back to sleep?

Hi all. Baby is now 4 months and up to now I've been mainly doing contact naps or long walks in the pram to get him to sleep (and he will sleep in the car as well). I had tried cot naps earlier on and he would just wake up, and then saw some advice that practising independent sleep isn't really necessary until 4 mon...

4 months 1 week. He’s always been such a good baby and never been a crier unless somethings been bothering him.. he’s fine all day and it get to about 8ish and it’s almost like a temper cry like somethings really bothering him and it’s so hard to get him to calm down. I don’t think it’s wind and we thought maybe h...

Omds I’m losing my mind!! My 2 year old sleeps at 9pm but wakes up at 6am every day! He used to get 10 hours at night with frequent wake ups, now he sleeps through from 12-6am but is up way too early. Nap is 2-3 hours long bc he doesn’t get enough sleep at night. I’m also pregnant and running on about 5hrs sleep. Is...

Anyone else a solo mama, working full time and in the final year of their degree? Any tips to survive the last couple months of study before my 6 years of hard work is complete? Toddler has sleep regression too, thankful for a very understanding boss, but absolutely drowning in it all right now. Can anyone relate or...

4 the past few month my 19 month old will not sleep unless he is contact sleeping. He always been a restless sleeper and woke regular for breastfeeds or to be touch so he can drift back off. But yeah past two months or so he wants to use me as a pillow. Who else's little one like this. He still breastfeeds but not e...

With baby on the move and pulling to stand on everything, how are you getting yourselves ready for the day? I've tried containing him in his cot but he tries to stand in there and ends up falling and bopping his head on the bars. It's getting increasingly difficult to just get ready for the day 🥴

I could up my water intake and sleep could be better but have a 3 year old 🤪

Please let me know it's not just mine.... is anyone else's BF LO still on 8 feeds in 24hrs? And are any still having 2 or more night feeds?

My boy is 6 months old and he’s never slept a full night ever. Wake windows are every 2-3 hours and honestly my body is craving a full night sleep. I also have a toddler who wakes up between 5:30-6am so I feel so sleep deprived

Moo is 18 months and she’s been waking at 4am everyday for at least 6-7 weeks now, There was one occasion she slept in until 6am and that was in her travel cot, She’s not napping properly in her cot very well either. Now I’m thinking does she need the sides removing as she needs more space!?! The cotbed and mattre...

Hi all. Little boys sleep has been all over the show the last month. Use to be a 7-7 sleeper when he was younger and all of a sudden when hit 6 months was awful. He is 11 months now and for the last two weeks he is only taking one nap per day which lasts 2.5/3 hours. This means by 7pm he is exhausted but he will not...

Anyone else's baby just started waking up around 5am again?? Been happening since the start of this week!

Is anyone just not sleeping throughout this whole pregnancy!? My sleep is getting worse and worse but I’m functioning with it working full time as it’s become the norm. I’m waking every hour, just wide awake. Then by 4am I can’t drop off to sleep anymore !? Please tell me when baby is here even though you wake up fo...

I really need a sleep sack that’s good like the dreamland… without paying $90+ 😓. pleeeease help a girl out my baby needs some weight it’s the only way he sleeps

My 10 week old has been in a bassinet in our room since day one. Lately though he has been kicking and flailing and restless when I put him down for the night that he’s rocking his bassinet. When is an appropriate time to transition him to his crib? His pediatrician said by 4 months but I’m not sure if it’s too soon...

I’m scared to stop as I like to know when he last fed- he doesn’t give hunger feeds like he used to but I know he needs a feed if it’s been 3/4 hours yet sometimes after one!

How long does everyone’s 3 and a half month sleep at night without waking up at all? Mine is sleeping from 10:30pm all the way until 8am without waking up. No I’m not bragging but just wondering if this is the norm for other parents as well?

I feel more comfortable co-sleeping then I do having my baby in the bassinet. I know it’s not safer but it feels more comforting I guess I could say. I feel like I can’t sleep all night when he’s in the bassinet
