Sleeping through!?

I keep seeing posts where people have babies who sleep through the night -my baby does not, but I would love him to!
What are people doing to get this to happen?

At the minute we start bedtime around 7-7:30, depending on his wake windows and naps through the day, we change his bum and baby grow and then feed him to sleep in his room, in the dark with white noise (falling asleep around 8ish). Then we hold him in our arms until we go to bed (around 10:30 and he doesn’t stir at all, he’s just snuggly) I’ll then try to dream feed (sometimes he does, sometimes he doesn’t). Then he’ll sleep in his basket until around 1:30/2am. Then he’ll get up typically once or twice more through the night.
During the get ups we change his bum and feed him back to sleep, I wouldn’t say he’s awake for more than 30 minutes during this time - he’s breastfed during this time. I try to keep him eating for as long as possible by tickling his cheek and feet etc.

What are you doing differently/what advice would you give if you have a baby that does sleep longer stretches/through the night?

Did the sleep trend change while i wasnt looking?

From my perspective, 4-5 years ago everyone was all about schedules and structures and Moms On Call and ferber method sleep training. As soon as my son was born early 2025, it felt like a huge shift in attitude. People were horrified / thought we were idiots for being on a schedule, i have been insulted for not baby wearing, and i have been talked to by MANY people like im a neglegent mother for rarely contact napping or bed sharing or when we started ferber.

Judge away if you must, maybe its always been this way, but it really feels like there was a huge shift in how we mamage contact and sleep.

What age was your first child when you had your second?

What age do think is best for your child to be before you have another one?

I can’t believe some of you let your babies watch Ms Rachel 🤬

Instead of letting your babies sit in front of the telly watching Ms Rachel…
Try educational alternatives like Deal or no Deal, we’re having a blast 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Tantrums ( terrible 1s)

Hey ladys

What are we doing about tantrums? I have 18 month old twins and if its not one its the other. I do my best to give them what they need and want, Iv been told to stay calm, ignore them, give them a toy. And most of the time, all their needs will be met. Does anyone have any hacks I can try? And will this every go away?

Transition from next to me cot to bedroom

So my little one is 4 months, and she’s a big girl! She’s starting to outgrow her next to me but I’m worried she’s too little to be in her own room yet (tbh it’s more I’m not ready yet) but when did you guys move baby to their own room and how did the transition go?

Day naps

Where do I put my little one to sleep in the day? He’s almost 4 months & outgrown the Moses basket which I had downstairs, but I’m told I can’t put him in a room without me during the day
