Going to go crazy‼️‼️‼️‼️

I always said I would never co-sleep because I like my space in bed. Nyla has always loved her crib and never had any issues. The last week Nyla has been more clingy with me and will not sleep in her crib at night. I give up. You win Nyla Marie. I am losing my sanity and sleep trying to repeatedly put her back in the crib each time. I just spent the last 45 minutes going back and forth from the crib. I gave up and put her in the bed next to me and she falls immediately to sleep. If anyone has any tips, tricks, coffee recipes, alcohol recipes let me know.

Ok vent over! But for real send me any tips, tricks or recipes

Ugh. Going through the same thing. I’m so scared to co sleep and SIDS so I stay up alll night and I’m exhausted

Same. My girl is literally sleeping on me as I type this cuz shes been resisting her bassinet. Just make sure youre cosleeping as safely as possible! Theres an increased suffocation risk if you dont do it safely, so make sure to try your best to not fall asleep accidentally. Hopefully our baby girls get through this phase quickly!

oh girl i have no advice because i gave up on the bedside sleeper/crib life in the first month with both my babies 😂🥲😩. Thankfully we have a King size bed. But good news is since u were able to get her to sleep in her crib before she probably will go back to it eventually. May be going through a growth spurt phase where she needs extra closeness to feel comforted! Keep doing what you’re doing with trying to settle her in the crib first until she gets comfortable there again

Is she breast fed or formula fed? My daughter is formula fed and I noticed if I warm her bottle for her night time bottle she seems to sleep better at night.

I’m so sorry you’re going crazy
:( just know that you are not alone. My little one is 15 weeks old and since week 3, he only contact naps and stay asleep at night when he’s on my chest 😳 I am terrified of SIDS and tried so many things before I gave in to chest sleeping. I was so sleep deprived for days. I don’t think people realise how destructive lack of sleep is.

Although, co-sleeping is not recommend, it is so much more important to learn how to co-sleep safely than to be stuck falling asleep in a random spot that’s unsafe for mom and baby. I am planning on sleep training once he’s 5-6 months old (as that’s when babies learn how to self soothe) most likely trying the Ferber method 🤞🏽

I recommend checking out cosleepy on Instagram. Great resource on co-sleeping as well as safesleep7.

My LO is 15 months old (since week 3 - he only contact naps during the day and stay asleep at night on me chest) I tried so many tricks that I can possibly find and try for days, from swaddling, rubbing his chest, putting him tired and still awake, rocking, swing, wait until he’s asleep and slowly putting him into the crib/bassinet feet butt and head etc. I was so sleep deprived & gave in to chest sleeping & do it safely. Now we both sleep longer.

I highly recommend checking out @ cosleepy on Instagram. Awesome resource on co-sleeping as well as safesleep7.

Has anyone else had issues with their friends that aren't pregnant or have kids?

I have a friend at work and we've become really close over the years. But ever since I become pregnant she just doesn't understand anything I'm going through which is fine except for the fact that the past few days I have been exhausted physically and socially. We have been helping another friend out for about a month now and we've had to keep him entertained as he's going through a rough time right now and it's drained me socially . my friend at work is frustrated because I'm not talking a lot and I'm exhausted and she doesn't understand why and I'm just curious if anybody else has had issues with friends that are not going to the same thing or have gone through the same thing as you connecting with you because she's literally mad at me. She stopped talking to me at work today and I just don't understand what to do.

31 weeks pregnant and lonely

How to deal with loneliness in pregnancy when your boyfriend goes out with his friends drinking 😅🥲 I only have three friends, two are never really free and one lives back in Liverpool and has her own set of friends where she goes to raves and goes on holiday with them lol. My boyfriend is going out soon for the night as it’s sunny and I’ll just be sat here crying like every single time! When does it stop 🤣

Loosing connection

I’m currently 28 weeks pregnant and my partner can’t and hasn’t come anywhere near me sexually for about 12 weeks or so now. We tried but he got put off saying he was worried he was hurting the baby. I’ve spoken to him about this trying to tell him he can’t and he’s no where near, I’ve sent him email links I’ve had through on newsletters. My libido is through the roof and I’m worried we will drift apart if we don’t have aex again soon.
