Why????

Does anyone else’s child sleep like this??? I always have to check on him before I go to bed because he’s always wrapping his head up in his blanket.

My son does this since he was 5 months I was so worried and always waking up to check on him . He’s 16 months now and still doing it . SMH 🤦‍♀️ what I did was change his blanket to a flannel/ Muslim swaddle blanket.

No but if my baby slept like that I wouldn’t be able to sleep!!

Just get them breathable blankets . It is called muslin swaddle

I think the CDC doesn’t recommend a blanket or pillow until after 24 months or even later, but honestly I’m sure he is just fine

will you rather do what works for you or what people who don't know how much you are struggling tell you to do? They only telling you the possibility of it happening and most when you just neglect it. For example they tell you not to let your baby sleep on the swing because of one thing or the other, if a lot of people weren't told this, they will probably not bother check on the baby just because it is sleeping anyways meanwhile the neck could be bent blocking the airway.

Same way they tell you not to cosleep, even animals do better. 😒😒

I wouldn't be comfortable having a blanket in there if my child did that.

This is why we stuck to baby sleeping bags for as long as possible, there’s no chance of this happening.

I still put my baby in a sleep bag because I’m afraid of her sleeping like this!

Get a sleep sack that has legs so baby is warm but moveable. This is very unsafe and I hope you recognize that and that comments like mine are not meant to be hurtful but only to help you. Moms always say oh could never be me until it is. We don’t want to hear a horror story ❤️❤️

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 ?
