Was wondering if anyone else’s March babies still wake up a few times in the night? My boy always been a rubbish sleeper but I thought he’ll get better by now. He will do some random good nights then get really bad again. Spends half the night in my bed because I’m fed up with getting up constantly back and forth to his room. I’m absolutely knackered I’m basically a solo parent as my partner works away a lot. Struggling abit now :( trying to look after him, the house, the dogs. I’m just so worried as I’m going back to work next month and I can’t focus on so little sleep it’s going to put such a toll on my health

Every night at the moment wishing for better stretches of sleep. I’m already back at work and it’s causing a lot of difficulty for me and my husband. Everyone talks about sleep training but I just couldn’t leave her crying and not sure if 10m is too old to help her learn to settle better. So sorry no advice just know you’re not alone!
the other night he did 9 half hours then fed and went back to sleep for another 2 half hours and I was like omg finally he might be getting better, then next night he only woke 2 times. He’ll do like a couple nights of really good sleep then he’ll go downhill again and I don’t know why I don’t change anything. I was told to let him cry but I can’t, I have tried once but lasted 5 minutes and I only had to because I was getting myself stressed so had to just leave the situation for a minute. It’s hard as he will only settle with me so I can’t get any help when partner is home. I’m glad I’m not alone as I feel like I’m failing and doing something wrong x

Our boy has literally just started sleeping through 11.30 to 6.45 everyone said lett him cry, but my theory is they cry for a reason... He has struggled with his wind and colic from day one but since he has been able to roll over, sit up aand stand all this upset has gone away literally over night! I hope you get there soon but don't lose faith x

Sorry no advice but just some solidarity
My baby girl has onlybslept 2 long stretches in her whole life (One 6 hours, one five)
Other than that she is up anywhere between 4 and 6 times a night
My partners here but has never seen to her really, always been me
I'm starting work soon too and just don't know how I'm gonna cope

My boy has never slept through the night. I breastfeed and is up 3/4 times a night. Cnt be bothered to constantly wake up,go to his room ,bring him to feed then put him back in the cot so he stays with me after his first wake time..I go back to work soon too so dnt know what's going to happen.
He hates drinking from bottle so partner cnt do anything at night
Sending hugs and good vibes to all mamas who are going throughout this x.

My baby will wake up maybe once and that for a diaper change and maybe a bottle

Yes! You are not alone mama…literally in the exact same situation and we put him in the bed with us every night at some point because it’s just easier and we actually get sleep rather than back and forth. I’m also due back to work soon and dreading the sleep deprivation and trying to work on top of being a mum, housework etc etc. here if you need a chat! It’s been a hard few months in our household, just praying he will sleep one day!!

Yeah my son goes in his cot for an hour/couple of hours then is in our bed for the rest of the night, gets fed at least once and most night wakes a few other times
It’s tiring but just gotta think it won’t last forever
My eldest has never slept through either so don’t think I’ve had a full night sleep since 2020 🧟

My little boy is 11 months next week and he’s slept through once. He always wakes about 1-3 times a night for a feed, I think he’s just extra hungry on a night time even though he has plenty during the day, I try and comfort him as much as I can but I do sometimes put him down and he will cry, I will leave the room for 5 minutes to see if he will settle, then I come back in and settle him again if he hasn’t, calm him, put him down and push it to 10 minutes and just continue with that method until he settles x
