Chilled. Baby

This isn’t a brag… but my baby is 5 months and rarely cries rarely gets upset can go to restaurants and have her with her and she’s so calm at night she doesn’t cry when waking either she’s chilled when I put her in her cot everytime just likes to play or roll about ….I’ve heard that these baby’s may have traits of Autism tho if they’re a really chilled baby…I don’t usually believe it but it’s got me really questioning now I know she’s only 5 months can’t think about it right now but I’ve never heard her truly cry…… and I just think it’s not normal baby behaviour is it…. Anyways just wondering if anyone else has a chilled baby…….. please don’t hate it’s just a speculation I don’t actually believe it’s true

Sleeping in cot

Hi all! Does anyone have any recommendations on how to encourage baby to sleep in their cot? My baby is only three days old but does not settle in his cot at night. During the day he seems to be able to sleep anywhere but the night is different as he only settles on me. I don’t know if I just have to be persistent and sit through his cries but that feels cruel to do so. Thank you in advance!

Nights are brutal

Anyone else feel dread the moment it starts to get dark out? Waking up every 2 to 3 hours to feed and pump is so hard. But to top it off, it feels so lonely. Trying to be quiet so no one (even the baby) wakes up. Struggling with how tired you feel and how much you wish you could just hit snooze on it all and fall asleep. It’s a type of mental pain. Or is it just me? 😞

Struggling

I’m now understanding why it’s so easy for couples to break up during pregnancy or even after , the mean can really treat you like shit because they can’t handle it. I’m about to be temporarily sleeping in the streets of SD (in my car) with twins inside me because it’s just been so bad after i got pregnant our relationship just got worse 😔 i’m not sure how to deal with it all, i feel played and alone it’s worse because i don’t know anyone else out here smh.

What would you do? Need advice regarding formula feeding at night!

Me and my hubby have got in to a routine with our little one where he will pretty much always do the last feed around 10-11pm. She's now 8 months old, she sleeps well, its getting harder and harder to settle her after this late feed. I suggested dropping it, but he thinks she's not ready yet because she was prem and she's still small for her age. I then suggested to start the feed when she stirs, don't wake her up from deep sleep, and trying not to wake her too much for the nappy change, so it's basically a dream feed and she'll go straight back to sleep. He doesn't seem to understand this concept. Instead, he fully wakes up, takes her in to a bright room starts chatting to her.... No wonder she's not getting back to sleep after!!! Then he moans he didn't get much sleep, he went to bed really late. When I try and take over he gets upset! I'm worried it's going to start affecting her sleep. Should I be worried or do I just let him get on with it?

How are you sleeping?!

My LO is 9 weeks old and she tends to sleep from 21:00-1/2:00 with no issues. After her feed and change she drifts off quickly but the next stint of sleep just seems to be her flailing her arms around and making a whole lot of noise. Her eyes are closed through the whole time and if you pick her up she stays asleep and stops moving and making noise. Has anyone else experienced this, if so how did you manage it? Do I just leave her to it until she cries (of that’s the case any tips on sleeping through it) or do I pick her up re comfort her and put her down again?

I’m at a loss but between her wild arms and noises and my partners snoring I’m not getting much sleep 😅

Just need some support

Is anyone just struggling to see a light at then end of the tunnel. He’s almost 4 months wakes up constantly throughout the night and I’m just struggling right now with sleep. Everything else he’s perfect a happy little boy but his sleep over night is just terrible
