Pampers sleep coach or other sleep support?

Hi all,
My girl just turned 8 months and has been having horrible nights for weeks now. She doesn't nap for me unless I hold her which means I can't nap or get anything done. I definitely have the triple whammy of PPD/PPA/PPR so I really need the rest and breaks from constantly having to care for her. Don't get me wrong, I love her of course but with a husband that works different hours than me and no family nearby it's a lot to handle! I've been seriously considering pampers sleep coach app and wondering if anyone has used it.
TIA,
One tired and stressed mama

@Jacki it could be partly teething but we've tried tylenol, hylands nighttime tabs, and camilia to no avail so I think it's more than that

So i haven't tryed the pampers sleep coach, but I took the taking cara babies sleep classes with my second and that was the best thing I could have ever done. I am now doing all the same things with baby number 3 and he will be 9 months in 2 days and he is an amazing sleeper.

Have you taught her to fall asleep on his own?

@Colleen no that's exactly the point. I'm looking into sleep training options

It’s hard mama, I’m right there with you 😣
Honestly I don’t know what to do either because I’m scared to let my 8month old cry it out at night in fear that he’ll wake up my sleeping toddler in the other room so I’ve been comforting him every time he wakes up crying and even transferring him to our bed or laying on the floor with him. It’s so tiring and I think you should give sleep training a try if you can! Wishing you luck!🥹

I suggest reading precious little sleep book! Also, if you want I can tell you exactly what we do with ours! Our first baby never slept in a crib so I'm passionate about helping others get their babies to sleep independently if that is their goal! We did use Pampers sleep coach to help track sleep as well, higher recommend

I did the free week and it was super helpful. I didn't feel the need to continue after that.

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?

Bath Time

Help! My baby is 3 and a half weeks old. Every bath she goes in quite happy but will only stay like this for a very few mins, if I try to clean her or move her we have tears and after a few mins the same. It's like she is scared. Our current baby bath is quite big should I try a different one? Looking for any suggestions as want her to enjoy bath time not be upset and I'm scared I'm going to make her hate it😢💗

Crying during feeding

Hey mams! My girl is 6 weeks on Monday and is having so much trouble with feeding. It doesn’t happen every feed but more often than not she will start a bottle and just start crying as if she’s in pain and she can’t take the milk. I think it’s trapped wind but I genuinely don’t know what to do it’s so pitiful to see her not be able to feed! She’s formula fed and on HiPP Organic.
Anyone else been in this position? I’m pretty sure it’s just a bit of trapped wind that she needs to fart out but can’t! If anyone has any advice I’d be very grateful as I think I may need to tape my eyelids open soon 😂

No more naps! 10 month old

For a few days now my 10m old has fought her 2 daily naps. Normally her wake windows were 3-4 hours and she is now eventually napping after a 6 hour wake window. Today was only one nap, she skipped the second one. Used to nap like clockwork so I’m wondering if anyone else is experiencing this? Also very unsettled most nights and doesn’t sleep well at all
