Nap regression

Anyone else going through this? My little lad won’t sleep for more than 30 minutes in his crib and pram out for a walk and when he wakes up 9/10 looks like he needs more sleep. I leave him to try settle for like 10 mins to see if he goes back to sleep but he doesn’t. He sleeps for longer in my arms but don’t really want to do this the whole time.

Yes, this is happening to us during the day. I find my LB sleeps for longer in his pram when on the move so I'm going for walks twice a day. At the mo he is sleeping really well at night thankfully

Forgot to add he is 11 weeks on Friday

Yeah he sleeps from like 8:30-4/5ish so can’t complain really

Mine is 13 weeks today! Gosh that's great my little boy usually has feeds at 2am and 5am. Last night I managed to get him to bed an hour earlier so he had 6 hours first stretch, that's the longest stretch yet. I was very pleased 😀

Honestly some babies do just cat nap. My first did 30 min naps for months and months. It's actually very normal and quite common. Drive me nuts. Around 8 months she started doing longer.

Exactly the same as my LG!

My LO every feed. Drs don’t seem to think it’s a problem the whole Muslim cloth gets soaked so much I’m using towels now. I’ve tried size O teats he gets really frustrated and still spills it out :(

8 week immunisations

My 8 week old has his first set of injections tomorrow and I’m abit nervous. Does anyone have any advice for after the jabs? I know they get a temp after so have got some calpol to give just before hand. Should I put him to bed in less clothing to make sure he doesn’t get too hot? Any tips from your experience with first set of immunisations? Am I worrying more than I need to? 😅

11 month old constantly standing in cot

Please tell me someone has some advice for this cause wow it’s trying. My almost 11 month old is fully on the move now and his new favourite thing is repeatedly pulling to stand in his cot. The problem is that he wears a sleep sack (mainly so his legs don’t get stuck between the bars tbh lol) so he’s not stable enough to lower himself down. So earlier he fell backwards and hit is head and now we feel like we can’t just leave him to it. Typically it’s his first full day at nursery tomorrow and my first day back at work IT’S LIKE HE KNOWS!!
Please tell me someone has some tips. Currently we are quietly placing him back on his back every time but he just keeps doing it! 🤣🤡

My seven year old

Is out of control. Her dad and I share 50/50 and when she comes to my house she is so mean. And idk what to do

Took 9 week old to a family party where there was loud music and she was next to the speaker for most of the time (about 3 hours). She slept through most of it. Do you think she has hearing loss from this?

Freaking out right now :(

Bedtime

What time are you getting your LOs down for the night now and how are you finding bedtime? We’ve had the sane routine since my daughter was a few weeks old - bath with her older sister and 6.45, followed by a bottle and ideally in bed by 7.30. This worked at first but over the last few weeks she’s been fighting it a lot and, with the exception of a few days last week which were a lot easier, it’s a bit of a battle to get her down and features a lot of screaming and resettling. Not sure if we are putting her down too early or late? Her last nap is usually a cat nap (30-45 mins) and finishes by 6. She’s pretty good at settling herself from a night feed, but seems to be unable to do it at bedtime, even with her dummy.
