Sleep regression hell

This is actually impossible. She just wouldn’t sleep last night, like the whole night 🫣 she had to be held but still woke up every 10 minutes or less for the entire night. She won’t go in the pram for a nap (we’ve never cracked a cot nap) so is in the carrier but has been shouting at me for an hour. I am SO overstimulated and touched out and it’s not even midday 🙃 how long did your regression last if you’re out the other side please xx

Did moving your babies to their own room help them sleep better? (And also you) 🫠

My baby is almost seven months old and he has started to reject his crib, I used to be able to sleep with him on his crib next to me but now he wants to be in my bed, I love the concept of co- sleeping but my back hurts so much from it and sometimes I can’t even stand up in the morning. I read here that if you move them to their own room they don’t feel your smell and I thought maybe he would be able to sleep again in his crib (the first part of the night he is fine and sleeps almost three hours straight but the second half of the night he wants to sleep breastfeeding and I don’t think my body can take it)

Night time feeds taking over a hour

What am I doing wrong 😭 every time my girl wakes up it takes me about a hour to feed and get her back to sleep. I breast feed untill calm then nappy change, give half breast milk in a bottle , burp then rest of bottle then she falls asleep and then frantically moves and does a poo. Then I change nappy and she’s screaming..then I give breast to calm then hold her for 15-20 mins to settle before putting down then pump and before you know it it’s been 1-2 hrs and then half way due the next feed 😭😭 (happens like this or some variant of this)

since she was born husband first feeds while I pump but he’s back to work now and needs sleep as operates vehicle and is on a work site.

I sometimes just BF but when I do this she falls asleep too soon and sleep is far more broken for me. After 5/6AM I just BF and have her in bed with me

When to stop Co-sleep

My baby is currently 7weeks old and I don't know when to start training her to sleep on her own. I love sleeping with her and she sleeps so good with me or my husband but I know at some point she needs to be in her crib. When did you guys start putting your babies to sleep on their own and what tips do you have to help a clingy baby sleep alone?

Should I let him miss the appointment he booked?

Baby Daddy has been sleeping ALL day, woke up once to use the bathroom and then said “I’m going back to bed”. Says he doesn’t feel well, however this is a continual pattern..

We’ve been bickering all week about a variety of issues (this excessive sleeping/him not pulling his weight being one) So he booked us a therapy session so he could “have someone else explain why I’m wrong” It starts at 9pm (virtual) I’ve been alone with baby all day and I’m tired. It seems as though he’s forgotten about this meeting. Should I wake him up like his Mother or let him sleep through it and suffer the consequences (no show fee) to make a point? I can’t help but have the “if he doesn’t care I don’t care either” mentality rn.
Opinions please..
