Sleep

How is your baby sleeping? We coslept and we always stay with him until he fell asleep. Yet the past few nights he fight his sleep very bad. Negociates more books, moving from one side or another, no end talking .... I talk to him softly, give him tips to help him fall asleep, ... The only moment he falls asleep is when I get upset. Then he sleeps on less than 2 minutes... So I end up being upset at him every single night lately. That makes me sad. Anyone else experience that ?

Yes! We do something similar where we co sleep and stay with him until he falls asleep. My son is having a really really hard time falling asleep the last 3 weeks or so and it’s driving us nuts because he won’t fall asleep before 9pm despite starting bedtime at 7:30-8:00.

My daughter has been waking up earlier and earlier every morning and she’ll cry for me that she’s ready to get up. 2 weeks ago she was fighting every nap and bedtime crying hysterically with every excuse under the sun. That she was sick, she wasn’t tired, she was scared, she was hungry etc. Anything to keep me in the room with her. I think unfortunately it’s just a “normal” phase at this age but damn it is so hard 😩😩😩

We did the chair method. It was so worth it even though it took about 1 month.
She gets into her bed, kiss good night, I close her door and she happily falls asleep in 10 minutes..
She still wakes up overnight, once ir twice... when that happens I go give a quick reassurance... in and out in 1 min.

The chair method. We were in the chair for 1 month..

CPS?

Something’s wrong with me. My LG was wailing & crying & screaming & all I did was watch. Didn’t feel like picking her up to comfort her & still don’t.. should I just turn myself in?

Brest feeding 6 months plus

Hi. Silly question but how does people navigate Brest feeding when baby gets their teeth? I never made it this far while b feeding my other two so I’m not sure what the next stages will look like.

Nap times

My baby girl is currently 14 weeks old and we have been struggling with naps for a while now. We manage to get her down a few times a day however she does not sleep longer than 30 min.. I know this is the length of a sleep cycle so it is normal but she l never seems to be fully rested especially in the afternoon. She often wakes up looking tired but refuses to go back to sleep, or if I hold her and rock her to sleep there is no way of putting her down again. The evenings are a battle because of it as she gets over tired. Any tips or advise on how to lengthen her naps?

Long night wakings and exhaustion

My 4 week old wakes once/ twice in the night. Problem is that the wake period is really long. It’s not that he’s awake for the whole time, but he struggles to get comfy again in his next to me. It often means I’m awake from about 2-4am and then he wakes again around 6 and we don’t get back to sleep after that one. We don’t get to sleep until around 10:30/11 as that is when he has his evening feed. My toddler is also waking in the night too sometimes. I’m so so tired that I can’t think straight and I’m also doing nursery runs/ looking after a toddler at the same time as a newborn and just feeling really overwhelmed. My husband helps out but he’s back at work and is knackered too. Is anyone else having similar issues?

Is this true?
