Lowering crib/sleep regression?

Anyone else used to have a decent sleeper and now in a sleep regression? He turned 9 months 2 days ago but it started earlier this past week. In three days my baby learned to clap, pull himself up, go from sitting to standing back down to sitting, and more. We lowered the crib and now the moment we set him down, he’s up. I tried letting him cry for a bit but he ends up choking and gagging even after 2 minutes. Any tips are appreciated! We haven’t changed anything in our routine. Are you guys struggling lately too?

Meee!!! We had a rhythm going with his sleep, it wasn’t amazing, but it was a rhythm. He nurses to go to sleep (😅) and he’s normally asleep from 7/7.30, first wake up at 1/2ish..second at 4ish. And then he’s awake awake at 8ish.

He turned 9 months on Friday, his dad lowered his crib same day. That night, he didn’t settle into sleep until after 10.30pm - 4 hours of comfort nursing and contact sleeping later - and then woke up at 1am, 3am, 4am and then was awake awake at 6am. Last night was a bit better.

The (maybe) irrational side of me wants to blame the lowering of the crib 😩 ie his dad. lol.

9 month sleep regression is harder for me than the 4 month was. I was finally used to getting a little more sleep and now she’s up multiple times again.

Yes we are struggling too!! He wants to climb out and it’s maddening

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....

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!

Can someone speak on drug screening and c section?

I smoked all through my first pregnancy and tested positive didn’t have any issues a social worker came in and spoke to me and hubby and that was it but this time I’m having an elective c section and wondering did they drug test you there?
