What ever happened to sleep?

My 7 month old has been going through a major sleep regression for the past few weeks 😭 I thought I had it so good when he started sleeping through the night around 12 weeks but now he's consistently waking up in the middle of the night around 12/1am and doesn't go back to sleep until 30 minutes to an hour later and I don't fall back to sleep until way after. Despite all of this he STILL wakes up at 6am every morning no matter what 😭

Historically babies were never on a schedule or slept through the night. They are rapidly developing every day so their brains work in overtime. It's exhausting but it's normal.

My baby girl did that. I just adjusted to her. Because all the learning and their Lil brains racing makes then not easy to sleep. She started pulling up and waking around furniture at 7 months at around 1 am every night. Then I finality got her back on her schedule to sleep at 9 pm and also till 8 am

When my son starts waking up in the middle of the night it’s usually been because he is starting to get a new tooth. I usually see the tooth a couple weeks after he starts waking up in the middle of the night…

When do things get easier?

As we entered the 9-12 month stage, my son started crawling and pulling himself up. He also became more clingy and does not play alone, still doesnt sleep through the night, and this week has been sick (so EVERYTHING amplified). I am tired and overwhelmed. Please lie and tell me things get better. 🥺

Colostrum storing?

Has anyone successfully extracted colostrum before the baby’s born? Apparently it gets produced from 16w pregnant and you can start storing it in the freezer but I’m 34w looking at my nipples and the syringes on amazon wondering how it works?? Like what did you use and did it hurt? 🥲

Self settling

Any tips or advice of how to teach 6.5month old to self settle? I’m up multiple times in the night to cuddle her back to sleep and put the dummy in. I understand she will wake up and want a cuddle etc but any tips on self settling would be appreciated 🥰

Baby losing weight

Hi all, it's been a long time since I had a baby (my son is 15!). My daughter is 10 days old and was 9lb born, she has since lost weight at every appointment and is at a 12% loss. I am breast feeding every two hours for over an hour and topping her up every feed. I pump and can get 60ml in 10 minutes so I know my supply is okay. Anyone had this before? Can give me some tips? I currently feel like I'm letting my baby down.
