Baby settling with partner

Does anyone else’s baby refuse to settle with their dad? Mine smiles and laughs with him but as soon as it comes to nap/night time he will just scream with him and refuse to calm down. Any advice, as I currently feel like I’ll never be able to go out!

Yes! We were having major trouble with this and I think it’s because of my partners work patterns he often isn’t here for nap times or bed times. He started to do the lead up to naps and bed - bath time, putting her in her sleeping bag, reading a book, bottle etc for a while and I was putting her down and now he’s doing bed time as well and she seems to be a lot better and doesn’t scream for as long! I’m not sure if that’s worked but might be worth a try!

Yes and I’m going to half of a hen do weekend tomorrow without her having taken a bottle before 🙈 He’s going to be nearby (with his mum as well) to bring her if needed. I know she’s just going to scream the whole time with them and they’ll need to bring her to me to feed like 3x

@Allie oh god, good luck! I’m having the same worry with going away for the weekend soon!
