Sleep regression and cosleep

I safely cosleep with our baby girl (almost 17 weeks) so far no sign of sleep regression. Does it not happen when cosleeping?

Other cosleeping moms that have experienced some type of sleep regression?

I think it can. I've noticed my four month old has been waking a lot more than usual during the night and we cosleep. Its nice that he's beside me and I can settle him really quickly.

I've also heard sleep regressions can happen with daytime naps rather than night sleep.

It's happening for me 😭
He went from sleeping 5-7hrs to up every two hours for the last 2.5 weeks. Its slowly getting better. His naps have been shitty since about 7 weeks. He'll nap for 30 mins when on his own but naps great if I hold him.
He's 18w now and we've been cosleeping since 8ish weeks

I'm co sleeping and not having any issues at night, but we are struggling with daytime naps right now! Babe takes little catnaps and is grumpy by end of day as she's overtired.

I am facing this as well. Before sleep regression,my son used to sleep well during the night waking up only 2-3 times for feed and he was instantly sleepy after the feed. Now he's waking up 4 to 5 times a night and his sleep is patchy as well. Day naps are also a struggle, he needs a lot of comforting for a 20- 30 minutes nap.

When did you circumcise your baby?
If you DID NOT or DO NOT have a circumcised son DO NOT comment this post is not for you!

Did you wait a certain amount of time or have it done immediately?
Again respectfully, this is only for the parents who choose to do so.
opinions about how not necessary it is will not be appropriate for this post. Thank you in advance. 🩵

Can someone pls help i keep making this post and nobody is responding

My boyfriend booked a trip for us to go to mexico for a week as my push present. I have severe anxiety leaving my 7 month old with my mom. I know she will be in good hands but she’s exclusively breast fed for the most part but accepts bottles just fine. i have all my pumping parts packed and will pump when baby normally eats but i don’t want baby to forget me or have latch issues when i return!! any mommas ever experience this?

Postpartum

I’m only 3 days postpartum (FTM) and already have extremely bad anxiety. I’m crying every night, as I think of another night of no sleep. My baby will not settle in his cot, he cries every moment we put him down unless in his chair rocker. So me and my partner are having to alternate after 3/4 hours of being awake with him downstairs. I’m trying everything to get him to settle. It’s a load of overwhelming stress. I’m 23, I was desperate for a baby and now I have one and feel completely useless. I miss it just being me and my partner.

When does it get better?

I was crying on the phone with the perinatal mental health team today and the lovely lady, bless her, kept assuring me that it gets better. I kept telling her I hope so because people have been saying that since having my LO and it just feels like it keeps getting worse. She assured me it gets better....

Crawling

Did anyone’s little one start crawling yet? I feel like we are falling behind but really have no idea. I’m trying to introduce more floor time but it’s been rough because of having hardwood floors and our 80 lb oblivious to life dog. I got us a carpet for the living room and trying to put the dog out more when the weather allows. She sits like a pro and will roll to get the things she needs😅 but no real signs of crawling yet.

Night time routine

Heya, my 3 week old daughter is currently exclusively breastfed and I’m not pumping. Can anyone recommend the best way to share the load with my partner? At the moment I’m doing all the feeds/burbs/settling and my partner is sleeping through which obviously isn’t sustainable, I’m trying to work out the best way to get him involved. Any advice very much appreciated!
