How did you guys get your 2+ year olds to go to sleep in their own bed?

My daughter is turned 2 in January and she will sleep in her bed if we put her to sleep first or if we lay with her until she falls asleep. But then sometimes she’ll wake up in the middle of the night and just come in our bed but I’m really trying to just get her to fall asleep on her own when we tell her it’s bed time. Is she too young or what did you guys do?

Sleep advice…

I need some mummas advice and tips 🙏🏼

Currently my baby is 4 months and sleeps in my bed in between me and my husband. Shes snuggled in her docatoc with a love-to-dream swaddle (arms up rather than arms tucked down) during the day she’s in her Moses basket in the front room, in the same swaddle.

But I feel like it’s time to change things for these reasons…

1. She’s outgrowing the docatoc at night
2. She starting to try and roll so need to remove the swaddle
3. During the day, she is so sensitive to noise and light, I feel maybe she needs to start napping upstairs where it’s quiet and dark.

So my plan is to move her to the next to me crib that’s been gathering dust, and put her in a sleep sack at night. And during the day, put her upstairs in a sleep sack, but not in the next to me, she actually has her own room with a cot and black out curtains, I thought I’d put her in there during the day. She is very much used to her room. I often put her in the cot while she’s awake when I’m getting ready in the morning and she happy in there.

I feel like this is all a lot to change at once, should I do things slowly? I don’t know how to make these changes without freaking her out.

Help!!

Being sick PP

Hiya, I need some advice if this has happened to anyone PP.

Since around 7/8 months PP I started being sick here and there, I put it down to stress due to work. However it stopped for a month or so but it’s just started back up again I’m a year PP.

I’m due back to work soon so could be stress but it feels more, physically I feel like my body is giving up on me abit just achey tummy, back & legs just feel very week and achey (lack of sleep and exhaustion) but wondering if anyone else had this PP and what it was?

I’m still breastfeeding to. Struggling to come away from it as my baby relies on it so much especially when teething but maybe it’s getting too much for me.

I am going to go to the doctors but it being the weekend and a long wait for apts I’m just wondering in the mean time🙏🏻

Help! 3 car seats!

Hello,

I’m looking for somewhere I can get specialist car seat advice, I’m expecting baby 3 and so we need to upgrade to 3 seats.

We have a discovery 5, 7 seater and a bmw 3GT. I’d like expert advice and someone who can help guide us through the fitting/seat combination options. It’s likely the disco will become the family car, but we also need flexibility to fit in the BMW.

Based in Wiltshire, along the Berks boarder. Anyone know of any somewhat local places that can help?
