Cosleeping

My baby is struggling to settle in his crib these days and I’m exhausted. If I put him in my bed with me, he falls asleep instantly, but I am terrified of SIDS.

I always see posts saying ‘cosleeping is fine if done safely’, so can anyone advise how to make cosleeping safe? I do have an Owlet sock.

Do you validate your toddlers feelings all the time?

I see so many posts about validating a toddlers feelings, and curious to know if other moms agree with it or disagree. I don't agree with it because they should start learning early on their emotions should match the situation.

Swaddle Transition

Hey moms! 🤍

My name is Gabi, and I’m a first-time mom. My baby will be 7 weeks old tomorrow, and recently I’ve noticed that when he’s swaddled, he keeps escaping and wakes up with one or sometimes both arms out.

I did a little research and saw a lot of recommendations for the Love to Dream swaddle. I understand the concept, but I’m not sure I love it for my baby. I also came across a couple of other transitional swaddles on Amazon—the Omni Swaddle Sack and the 4-Way Houdini-Proof Swaddle Sack—but now I’m second-guessing what to choose.

Before swaddling, we were co-sleeping, and he actually slept really well on his belly. Even now, he seems most comfortable napping on his belly.

I’d love to hear your experiences or recommendations—what worked for your babies during this transition?

Co-sleeping

Have tried to put baby in the next to me but he is refusing. He is currently sleeping in the najell sleep carrier between me and my husband. Any advice? Co-sleeping is making me anxious!

Fussy baby

For the last few days every time I put my 5 week old down he just cries, sometimes screams. I can’t get anything done. Any tips?

Earlier bedtime

What time do you put your baby to bed?

I keep seeing that putting them to bed earlier makes them sleep longer? Has anyone tried this? What’s your experience
