Self settling

If my little girl has woke up during the night and not fallen back to sleep after boob I just put her down and go back to sleep myself 😅 obvs if she starts fussing or crying I pick her back up but if she’s doing what you’ve described I just leave her. There been a couple of times when I’ve done that, woke a couple hrs later to find her asleep, so she must have dosed off herself at some point lol

If mines awake but not upset I leave him, if he’s happy in his bed and there’s nothing wrong what’s the point in changing that & loosing sleep 🤷🏼‍♀️

It may be different for your baby, but my girl gets quite annoyed if she’s trying to self settle and I intervene and try to help 😂 I think i interrupt her flow of things so I just leave her in her crib and watch until she eventually falls asleep. I probs could just fall asleep as I know she will settle but I feel too nervous to at the minute, I like to know she is asleep before I can relax (nothing wrong with those who do it the other way!) 😂 it’s just personal preference! X

Yep if my little one is not crying but awake in his bed, I leave him and he falls asleep by himself.

We usually leave her till she starts to sound on the way to getting upset/frustrated, if she's happily playing or chatting we try to give her a chance to self settle (still hasn't happened but one of these days 😅)

Mine's been doing this recently. I leave him be as he's obviously quite alright, and he goes back to sleep eventually. Must be a developmental thing x

If he isnt crying or upset leave him be! Once he starts getting grizzly or upset il go straight in and get him! Last night he woke at 12.30am & was sucking his hands wide awake- i dosed off and woke at 1.05am and he was fast asleep again 👏🏻

Its so hard to know isnt it! Mine has started waking a few times wide awake, ready to party and happy screeching 🫠 It can take her 40 mins to go back over and I cant doze off til she is asleep so I usually give in and lift her but thats probably just making the cycle repeat itself 🤡😂

@CeeCee this is very similar to my situation too! Not always there quietly but babbling, playing etc. I just never know if going in makes it worse or let them play. Seems if I go in you can guarantee I’ll be in every 10 mins
