Tutti bambini cozee - tilted?

Does anyone have this crib? Do you find that your baby ends up at one side constantly? She can't roll yet, so it'll just be a gradual shuffle as she squirms in her sleep, but it's always the same side. I saw online that it's a common problem and can be solved by lifting the mattress and tightening the straps, but that doesn't seem to have solved it. Does anyone have any tips? I don't like waking up to her face against the side šŸ™ˆ

I felt like my little ones just wanted to be up against something so ended up there.

Yep mine is tilted too. Never did get it resolved though šŸ˜…

Yep I had this and my son always went up against the side, and my daughter did the same with her moses basket I think it's a comfort thing, I panicked loads of times but now I have 2 healthy 3 and 5 year old

The straps need to be super tight to avoid tilting, that’s what fixed it with us

@Jenna yeh we've already done this, but it's still happening šŸ˜”

My Babies do this with a regular mini crib I think is comforting maybe, she’s very squirmy as well and end up either on the side or at the very top

That looks concerning to me. Doesn’t look like breathable fabric? My bassinet has mesh that is see-through. I’d switch to something else maybe if that’s not mesh ?

it is breathable ā˜ŗļø

ok good šŸ˜…

We had the same, we put a couple of wooden drinks coasters under the 2 legs on the side he kept ending up at. It was enough to prevent the tilt.

Yeah. Ours has to sit on the bed or it’ll be slightly tilted. I put a towel next to them so they wouldn’t roll all to the side

@Gabrielle do you mean attached to the bed? I thought about doing this, but she sleeps quite well, so I only have to get up the once usually. Don't want to make an obstacle to getting into bed for little convenience if I can avoid it. I do wonder if this is the solution - our eldest slept terribly, so we had the crib attached to the side of the bed and we never noticed this with her

Avatar

ah, genius! Old school solution, I like it. We may actually try this 😊

Avatar

No ours was like a co sleepers where you could put it next to you on the bed. Like rest it on top of the bed

Avatar

I think if she sleeps good and she can breathe then it’s totally fine

Avatar

If she can breathe against it then she’s probably fine.

Like someone else said, she probably just likes being right against something.

My girl used to do the same as well in her next to me. X

My son used to do this no matter where I laid him he would wriggle over so his face was at the edge lol now he’s 14 months and loves sleeping on his front or if on his side holds his little snuggle teddy to his eyes must be a comfort thing they were in a tight space for ages they must like the feel of being close.

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....

Rant/WWYD

My sister (youngest, 24) has two kids, 4 & 1, and i (oldest, 30) just have my one who’s 6mo old right now, so i ask her for advice or call her to vent about things sometimes. Well im tired of her turning around and telling my other family members that I’m ā€œlosing my sh*t.ā€ Literally have not lost my sh*t nor have i ever freaked out to her about my baby, i just call her to talk and tell her what stage my baby is in or talk through how im feeling, but she chooses to tell people that im like a complete nutcase or something which worries me that my family is going to start being judgmental about me as a mother or looking at me funny like I’m some fragile ticking time bomb.

What would you do in this situation? I’m already pretty much decided that I’ll stop telling her anything about my struggles, but I’m almost at the point where i feel like it should be confronted because she, of all people, should understand what I’m going through.

Not drinking

I’m going crazy. Baby born at 2.26kg. Slow to put on weight. This last week hasn’t put on any. Been trying to feed him at night and he’s not interested at all. Fast asleep. During day he will have 5 minute gulps and that’s it. He don’t cry for milk. I’ve got to keep offering to him. I try to offer it every hour but I don’t know what I’m doing. HV said nutrition comes after 5 minutes so I should pump first and then give him. I find it so hard. I tried to pump one boob nothing came. The other abit came. Tried giving him express he’s not interested in that too. Sometimes he will go for a longer a feed but not long at all. He’s 4 months and is currently 5.46kg. I have no family or friend support here and wish I had a cook, cleaner and nanny to help with everything so I can concentrate on the little one. I don’t know what’s wrong with him but I’m loosing it. It doesn’t help that my also stressed generally about my relationship and life circumstances. Any advice that will work. Any comfort you can give. I’m fed up. Is this regression - not feeding. He’s fast fast asleep. I’ve been trying to push the nipple in but that mouth is closed shut. I took some clothes off. Changed his nappy but he’s still asleep. Please help

Sleeping bag

8 week old in sleeping bag for first time as big enough! Do you feed your child in the night whilst in the sleeping bag or taken them out, feed then transfer back to sleeping bag before putting down?

Leaky nappy help

What nappies are you using to stop leaks?? We use pampers ultra dry size 5, and for the past few nights he has lashed through and we’ve had to completely change him during the night. Last night he leashed through twice!! He sleeps on his front and stays leaks through at the top of his leg where the tabs connect. Didn’t know whether to size up, he has a bit of a belly on him but he’s smack in middle of weight guidance so shouldn’t need too
