My little one doesn’t sleep longer than 2.5 hours at a time

How can I get my little one to sleep more in the night! She was starting to sleep for 3/3.5 hours and now she has totally gone back in the opposite direction!

Try to feed her more often during the day in order for her to get the right calories intake, every 2-3hours max and try to have the last nap not too late in the evening. It works for us 🥰

How is she fed? If she is breastfed a bottle at night of expressed breast milk could mean she gets more and sleeps longer. If you give formula, formula before bed keeps them fuller longer. White noise played all night also stops ours from stirring.

Following as also in the same boat, she was doing 2-2.5 hour stretches but that's dropped this week to 90 minutes and I am struggling!

When do things get easier?

As we entered the 9-12 month stage, my son started crawling and pulling himself up. He also became more clingy and does not play alone, still doesnt sleep through the night, and this week has been sick (so EVERYTHING amplified). I am tired and overwhelmed. Please lie and tell me things get better. 🥺

Colostrum storing?

Has anyone successfully extracted colostrum before the baby’s born? Apparently it gets produced from 16w pregnant and you can start storing it in the freezer but I’m 34w looking at my nipples and the syringes on amazon wondering how it works?? Like what did you use and did it hurt? 🥲

4 month bed time

What time do you put your babies to bed?
What time do you start your 'routine?'
My LO currently goes to bed around 10.30pm, and I know i need to start bringing it forward. Everytime ive tried, it takes longer for my LO to settle.
We are exclusively breastfeeding. Any advice Mamas?

Self settling

Any tips or advice of how to teach 6.5month old to self settle? I’m up multiple times in the night to cuddle her back to sleep and put the dummy in. I understand she will wake up and want a cuddle etc but any tips on self settling would be appreciated 🥰

How many words

Just a quick gauge of how many words your little ones are saying at this age. I heard by 15 months it should be 5 words, are most around this mark ?
