Am I the only one that struggles with bedtime? We tried various times but most of the time it just doesn’t work. Does everyone really have a successful 7/8pm bedtime where they do a little ritual of bath and cuddle or book and then just put baby in the cot to sleep? Am I the only one who hasn’t mastered that? We spe...

My LO is 5 weeks old and I am struggling to get him to sleep during the day time. Today he was been awake for such a long period if time and has become really fussy and difficult to settle. How long are your 5 week old sleeping during the day? I'm just worried that he's not getting enough sleep
My lg gets really grizzly from 7:30 there is no point keeping her downstairs, so do the normal bed routine but it can still take until 9-9:30 for her to properly settle and I can finally put her down without her waking up…I feel like that’s so late for her falling asleep 🙈 Anyone the same? She’s 5 months next…
I think more women than most deal with the anxiety about something happening to their baby while they’re asleep. This is something I cannot shake.

Anyone else’s baby hit 12 weeks and suddenly not sleeping as much and simultaneously ravenously hungry? She keeps skipping loads of daytime naps and her evening one before bed as well as just wanting to feed most times she’s awake or being fussy at the breast. Hoping I’m not the only one, I’m a very tired Mama atm 😅
Does anyone else feel like they have a completely different baby in the day and at night? My little boy is 3 weeks on Tuesday and in the day he naps fine and sometimes I need to wake him for a feed after 4 hours yet at night he can barely make it 2. He’s EBF and feeds for pretty much half an hour at a time so as you...
👻 so I can’t be judged, my lb currently goes 2am-2pm (bad routine I know) I’ve been trying to bring it forward with the bath bottle bed story sleep routine but it’s just not working?

Can anyone talk me through their bedtime routine with their little ones that are roughly 8 months and what time do they go down to bed. Little one is going in her own room this week and want to get her into more of a routine.
We’re having the hardest time with baby girls 4 month sleep regression, going into our fourth week, fighting naps, nursing strikes some days because she literally can’t be bothered to put the work in, can’t get her down on an evening, and when we do she’s awake every 30 mins after! We’ve figured out, for our own san...
