Sleep regression

My LO entered the 4 month sleep regression around 12/13 weeks and still in it now at 20 weeks. Anyone else in the same boat?! Hoping for an end in sight but she just keeps learning new skill after new skill bless her 😂 her day time naps have actually improved funnily enough from a chronic cat napper to 3 decent naps a day! But the night time sleep has gone from 1 or two wakes and minimum 5 hr stretches to 4+ wakes with either hourly or every 2/3 hr wakes.

We’ve just ordered her cot bed mattress too which we’ll transfer her in to this week - has this helped anyone else?

My lb is nearly 5 months old and we’re still in regression here. We have recently transferred him to a cot which is next to our bed with the hope that the nice new mattress helps but still the same. He has had a cold for ages so might also be the fact that he’s so congested but sleep is terrible here, easily 5-10 wakes

We are the same! Literally could have written it myself 😂 started around 12/13/14 (not sure regression or getting out of the swaddle was in the beginning), 19 weeks still going strong in regression 😭 hoping to get some sleep eventually 😆

Same here! I don't remember this regression lasting so long with my first one! We started also at week 13-14 and still going and he is 20 weeks today!

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

My little one is struggling with sleep

Hey! I'm in need of some advice please girls! My little boy is 20 months turns 21 months in 2 half weeks. He use to sleep through the night now he is waking up every single night in the early morning, I've had to transition him to a toodler bed as he kept climbing out his cot. Just need some advice on what I can do to help him get back in to a sleep pattern?

6 month old autistism

My 6 month old makes no eye contact with me and doesn’t respond when I call him. Can this just be a phase or personality trait as apposed to autism

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?

New born

Finally had my baby girl via C-section on the 18th, everything has been so far. But I’ve noticed she’s very fussy and cries a lot. I’ve been trying to exclusively breastfeed. The lactation consultant at the hospital said I did look like I’m making enough milk for her. She was latching on good at the hospital and now here at home, she doesn’t seem to want to latch at all. She’s been crying a lot and very fussy. I’m just wondering is she’s colic or like maybe she just doesn’t want the breast anymore?

5.30am wakeups 😫😴

My 15 week old has started waking up about 5.30am and is really hard to settle back down - it’s like he thinks it’s time to wake up for the day. He used to go to bed at 9pm and was up at 8am but now he goes to bed between 7.30-8pm as he’s knackered by then but waking up at 5.30am😴. Any advice to get him to sleep a little longer in the morning?! Even an extra hour would be lovely 🤣
