10wks old sleep training

She is 10 weeks old. They don't know they are a separate person from you until they are 4 montha old. If she wants to be close to you, keep her close. She doesn't need to fall asleep on her own any time soon

Babies can’t self settle until 6 months I believe. They don’t recommend sleep training until at least then. They just want to be safe and cuddled up with you

Yeah I agree with above comments I struggled with this. I never co-slept but I just let the baby fall asleep on me then gently put in Moses basket. I sleep trained my son at 8 months but could have definitely done it at 6 months however I first let him sleep in his crib for a month or so before I started sleep training. Of course this wasn’t the most convenient for night waking etc. However I really wanted him to sleep in his own room as I was afraid he’d sleep in ours for too long and then would be hard to evict him 😅. Now he’s 2 he’ll take himself to his bed for nap or night time if I lose track of time and not realise it’s already that time then he’ll tell me 😂 for now just enjoy newborn stage and let them be with you as much as they want as they need it. They say 4months you can start having a routine and yeah 6 months to sleep train 👍

I think some babies self-settle a lot sooner than others, but it definitely isn’t the norm. I think if baby needs you to get to sleep, you’re probably best to support her as she’s still so teeny, & then you can review when she’s a little older maybe. We didn’t sleep train but I noticed my little one trying to self-soothe quite early on & so would encourage this - usually by staying very still & out of sight (in the same room) until she drifted off on her own. However, had she needed me when she was that young - & even now tbf, I would step in. I know people who sleep trained from 3/4 months successfully, so maybe look at it when she’s a little older if that’s what you choose to do. Good luck & congratulations 💕

Yeah no judgement with my comment. I sleep trained my first at 9 months as couldn’t deal with her in my bed anymore waking each other up. She was so ready then too and she’s been an amazing sleeper ever since. Good luck! X

10 weeks is really too young for “sleep training” I don’t think anyone should be judged for the way they raise their child, however please read into this method before doing it, babies want to be with their mothers for as long as they can it helps regulate their mood, if not “crying it out” can cause serious development delay and psychological issues, when you leave a baby to cry it out they no longer feel safe and develop to not trust you and so become more agitated and unregulated!
The first year of having a baby is super tough and the nights are exhausting but you have to do what’s best for your baby and that’s it. My first son was attached to me most the time for the first year, sometimes he napped on his own sometimes we napped together depending on how he was or he would nap on me but this led to him feeling so safe that when it came to going in his own room that there were no issues whatsoever because he knew that if he cried I would be straight in to comfort him

No I don't think you are making a mistake putting her in a carrier, they aren't capable of self-settling until at least 4 months. However, there are things you can do to lay the foundation for good sleep.

I would recommend following huckleberry wake windows. https://huckleberrycare.com/blog/2-month-old-sleep-schedule-and-development
A schedule won't really work until much later but you can follow the wake windows as a guide to when she should be tired and easier to put down. You should aim for her to be asleep at the end of the wake window they suggest.
Environment, room dark as possible and white noise should help at night and when she can nap in her room alone (again in a few months) the same applies to naps.
When you get her to sleep wait about 10 minutes until she is in a deep sleep, then put her down feet first slowly so you don't trigger the startle reflex. This stuff will not stop her being a good sleeper, I did the same and my lo was ready to self-settle from 5 months and has been a great sleeper.
