Sleep training

Hello, please please please can I have no judgment here 😢
My baby is 9 months, for a week now I have been trying to sleep train her as she ended up co sleeping in my bed and I was getting 0 sleep at all
I was having no time in the evening to myself, I just wanted her in her own cot and room for my own sanity, I need a break and abit of my life back
However, I do feel sad the amount she has been crying, it’s breaking my heart, I feel awful, I have never let her cry longer than a minute literally
Is there any tips to making it abit easier for her as it’s breaking my heart and I’m so scared I’m causing her damage by her whinging at night
She has eventually ended up in my bed at like 2am past few nights so I am really really struggling
She whinges and falls asleep but when I go into her she is hysterical, when I first put her to bed she is also hysterical
As much as it is upsetting me I really do want some time to myself and to be able to sleep
Any advice at all please? Is my baby just not cut out for this type of sleeping? She manages 7pm to around 2/3am and then it’s proper crying until I go in, which I cannot settle her unless I bring her in my own bed, idk what to do anymore
Thanks! I keep asking chatgp but it’s driving me nuts I just need to speak to someone

Sleeping though

How to get my 11 month old to sleep though the night and not wake up for milk..

I just wanna sleep the whole night sick of getting woken up every single night.

My 11 month old ate her poo I’m think

I think my 11 month old girl ate her poo I went upstairs to make his brother ready for she did poo I notice she have yellow stuff on her face … I’m scared what will happen to her do I need to go hospital or should I call gp in morning?!

Can’t cope with sleep deprivation anymore

My 9 month old basically refuses to sleep. He constantly wakes up in the night and like
Tonight I’ve been up 3 hours with him.

He’ll sleep in my bed but I don’t want him in here because then I’m just giving in and giving him what he wants. I don’t even sleep when he’s in my bed either because I’m so uncomfortable.

I don’t even know what to do anymore at this point. I’m a miserable person from the sleep deprivation and incredibly depressed but health visitors and doctors are useless 😭

Nursery settling in period

My LB has been settling into nursery this week and is doing amazing. Only cried once when we re-entered - can't lie I felt a bit betrayed having been on mat leave with him for 11.5 months but I digressed. Anyway for the last two three days he's been waking up 6am instead of 6.30am. Is this normal? Also they only do one nap at nursery at midday. He still has two naps as if he's awake for too long he becomes really fussy and whiny until he goes to sleep so I'm worried how they will transition him to one nap. Also, his nap is just before the time he needs to be nursery each day for settling in between 9.30/10am. Oh and for the first time ever he refused his bedtime bottle last night. Would love to hear your experiences and advice please.

Co sleeping position

Is it okay to co sleep in this position with my 5 and a half month old? She mostly sleeps in her cot but sometimes she just wants me. Her face is completely uncovered and chin isn’t on chest etc. I know it’s not ideal but she seems to sleep so much better like this than on her back. My arm is cradling her. I don’t breastfeed and she doesn’t feed during the night. Need reassurance that it’s okay or an explanation why it isn’t😥

The transfer

Does ANYONE have ANY tips on how to transfer baby into her bassinet after each feed during the night, she’ll fall asleep as soon as she’s finished but as soon as I let go when putting her down she’s awake and crying,
