Short morning wake window

Normally my little girl can stay awake 2 hours or 2 and a half hours before her first nap but she’s just fallen asleep on me after 1 hour and a half awake. Would you be worried about this because it’s not like her at all, she is teething at the moment but she slept well last night, she did wake up at 5.30 for about ...

Are mesh for bumpers safe?

Are they safe as they’re breathable? I will be putting my LG in the big cot soon but when she is playing in there in the day, she often gets her limbs stuck between the wooden slats. Often bumps her head too from rolling. She loves rolling & is quite a mover in her next to me so I wanted to make the cot more comfy...

Napping in the day!

So we’re quite lucky with our twins in that they ALWAYS nap really well at home in their cots which is great, however when we are out for the day or at my parents house or something we find it really hard to get them to nap as they aren’t in their cots, they never sleep on us unless unwell so it’s always a struggle ...

Not going back to sleep

Baby wakes up anytime between 3-5 each morning, but regardless of the time just won’t go back to sleep for hours and only falls asleep on me or my partner. Any tips or advice on this please?

3 month sleep regression??

Bare with me, ftm mum so I’m just guessing. But could the 4 month sleep regression come early? Or is my little one just struggling to “connect sleep cycles” (or is that what the regression is? 🤷🏻‍♀️🤣) We have always slept 9 - 3/4 awake for bottle then sleep until 6-7 but recently we’ve been trying to put him to…

Baby waking at 5am help

Hi so my 4 month olds bedtime is around 7pm and previously he was waking up at 6.30am. The last couple of days he's been waking up at 5am, wide awake. Is this a phase or should I push bedtime to 8pm because 5am starts are driving me mad!

Clocks changing & bedtime

Incognito because I know I sound stupid😂 I’ve always had problems adjusting to the clocks changing, it just absolutely baffles me for no reason whatsoever. But I’m worried how it’s going to affect baby’s sleep and night time routine. My baby usually wakes up around 6am so now 7am although she’s still asleep…

Can a different environment make baby have multiple night wakes?

For reference we have been visiting family this weekend and she has been up numerous times in the night! We have tried to keep nap times/bedtime routine the same etc etc but she’s slept awful 😵‍💫
