Not sleeping in crib

So my almost 12 month old hates sleeping in his crib idk why so he’s been sleeping in his pack n play with a mattress and everything, we never co sleeped and he’s great at sleeping on his own but now that I want to transition him to his own room because he is still in our room, he won’t even touch that crib idk why 🥲🥲 I used to have him take naps when smaller but since we were in the middle of moving I stopped, should I just skip the crib and get a toddler gated bed or leave him in the pack n play lol any tips would help

We ended up selling our crib and purchased a full sized mattress to use as a floor bed! My 1yo daughter loves it, and it’s easier for us since I nurse her to sleep.
She’ll wake up from a nap crawl off and start playing with her books or toys in her room! It’s amazing!

i was thinking about that too since we have a queen mattress laying around in his room behind his crib 😂 that is a great idea Mama thank you.

Try to slowly transition him to being in there. Like let him fall asleep in your room and transfer him into his... it might also help to put a tshirt that you've worn (around the house, turned inside out) in his bed so that it smells familiar

Maybe try by bringing crib into ur room first and see if tht makes a difference.

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 :(

Struggling in the 4 month regression

How are people getting out of the 4 month regression? I’ve been looking it up and it says I need to be trying to put him down drowsy but awake but this does not work for my LO. Every time we do this he ends up being wide awake and after almost an hour of trying we have to contact nap/rock to sleep. I want to avoid rocking to sleep because now when he wakes up in the night he needs to be rocked back to sleep which he never used to need.

Nights are constantly broken because we are up 2-3 times to rock him back to sleep. Please give me your tips on how to survive this and how to get out of this!! Constantly feel like I’m failing and doing something wrong
