Transition to own room?

Hello

My son is 7 months old and is definitely ready for his own room. He has slept through the night with 0 wakenings now since he was about 7 weeks. My partner is ready for him to go into his room but I just feel scared. I’m so scared something will happen like him stop breathing or get his leg or arm stuck and I don’t knows. He is not a crier, even when he wakes up he will just talk to himself and usually wakes me up with the continuous ‘Iya, Iya, Iya’ (he means hiya as we say it to him a lot)

I’m worried I won’t hear him wake up even with a monitor and I’m so bad at sleeping I do not naturally wake up at 6:30 when he does. I don’t know whether to set an alarm or what but I am stressed he will get upset and I won’t be there as I won’t hear him.

How did you guys do the transition? How do you knew you’re going to hear them? My babies nursery is straight across from our bedroom do I just leave the doors open? He isn’t crawling yet so he wouldn’t be able to get out of his cot

If you’re worried, I’d say to have the doors open and start to close them a bit more every night. That way you’ll be able to hear him but transition yourself into having separate rooms x

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 🥰

Baby losing weight

Hi all, it's been a long time since I had a baby (my son is 15!). My daughter is 10 days old and was 9lb born, she has since lost weight at every appointment and is at a 12% loss. I am breast feeding every two hours for over an hour and topping her up every feed. I pump and can get 60ml in 10 minutes so I know my supply is okay. Anyone had this before? Can give me some tips? I currently feel like I'm letting my baby down.

Breastfeeding

Does it ever feel better? The actual feeding part of it is going really well and baby boy is growing so well. I’m struggling with how my boobs feel day to day - it’s really getting me down most days. The let downs make me feel awful and sounds silly but, I am also really missing not wearing a bra! 9 weeks postpartum and still getting fairly engorged, even with comfort pumping.

Any advice or just shared stories would help. I’m so torn between carrying on because I enjoy the feeding side of it or switching to formula.

Help! First time mum -

I have a 4 month old and now all of a sudden when he’s been asleep for 1hr30/2hrs he will wake up screaming (high pitched) I’ve tried winding him sometimes that helps, I’ve tried bicycle legs & bringing his knees up but that doesn’t seem to help but he brings his knees up himself sometimes but nothing happens. I’ve noticed since the 4 month mark he has started to struggle passing wind downwards! Any tips?
