As a mom how late do you sleep in everyday? I am up by 6am every day but my sister and her toddler and older child don’t get up until 11am every day

I find her schedule to be a bit jarring and lacking structure but she thinks it’s fine. I’ve never met another mom with a young child sleep that late every single day but maybe I’m wrong for worrying which I’m open to hearing. I think I’d be less worried if she was more active but she is not. I’m not judging to be mean. I love her and am worried. I think it may be hormonal but I don’t want to hurt her feelings when I bring this up. Thank you

Also to note our mother brought it up to me with concern as well. She lives out of state and I wish she was closer in case she is burnt out with life. I don’t want to judge

My toddler slept in until 11am every morning until after he turned 2 and I definitely slept in with him cause I am a night owl and I stay up late lol. His bed time was and still is 9:30pm. Now he's up by 8:30am sometimes 9:30 but no later than that. Idk how old your sister's toddler is though.

I voted results because I was curious, and also because our schedule has shifted significantly and still is shifting. I have the privilege to be a SAHM and don't care to keep a properly structured schedule, it just kinda happened.

6-6:45am during the week and 7:30-8:30am on the weekend.

I’m usually in bed until around 9 when my husband starts work. I used to be later because he would work later. I’m usually up late either working or just enjoying sitting down for the first time in the day lol I have one kid who wakes early with my husband and one that sleeps in with me. It works for our family. I mean, obviously if you’re worried about her mental health and possibly neglect or something speak up. If your only worry is that their schedule isn’t like yours it’s not a big deal

It’s always after 9/9.30am, but we have a later bedtime and still not sleeping through the night

My son and I are usually awake around 9:30-10:30 am unless he has daycare and I have studying to do, which I try to be up around 8:30 am. He goes to bed around 9 pm, which is probably too late, but he usually has a nap around 4 pm. I also stay up later than he does because it is the only time that I really get to myself because I am a single parent without any help from his father.

Please help…

My daughter is 16 months old nearly. She’s always been a bad sleeper! I managed to get her into a routine off tea, bath, book, bottle, bed for 8pm most nights.

In the day at nursery she has 1 nap being 12:25-2:15 making bedtime around 7:45-8pm. Which worked for so long.

She’s now having 2 maybe 3 naps ( yes I know she shouldn’t be / doesn’t need to be but sometimes I’m too tired to even fight keeping her up)

Yesterday she napped 3 times being 8:45-9:30, 11:10-12:50, then 4:30-5:25 yes late I know. As she was up at 4:25 yesterday morning!

I kept to the same routine, put her to bed at 9. She didn’t fall asleep until 9:42, took all that time to settle her as now she doesn’t have a bottle at bedtime as she never drinks them!
But again this morning woke up at 4:25.

What can I do to keep her to stay asleep past 6-6:30 each morning?
As she used to wake up between 6:45-7:30 every morning sleeping 9-10.5 hours each night but it’s suddenly dropped to around 6-6.5 hours so she’s exhausted quicker in the day!

Please help! One exhausted mumma 🫩🥱

How to wean breast feeding?

My daughter is 13 months and I am very much ready to stop breastfeeding. My daughter doesn’t eat too much, mostly wants milk. She won’t drink any other milk and doesn’t really use bottle/sippy cup. She drinks water sometimes but I feel she doesn’t eat or drink enough to stop bf. Some tips on how to wean her would be helpful!

Wedding and breastfeeding?

I'm getting married tomorrow. I'm 3 months pp. I breastfeed my baby. I won't be able to do so tomorrow. I'll be taking pre pumped milk for him, but worried about myself. If I don't pump or feed for 8-10 hours, I'll get engorged. Is there any workaround?

Boy mums

I need nappy help 😭 my little one now rolls himself onto his tummy in the night, but it’s making his nappies leak up his belly, every night!!

He doesn’t feed during the night now and he sleeps through (I know I’m superrrrr lucky 🙏).

I’ve tried rascals, peachies, pampers, Fred and flo, lidl, sizing up, sizing up in vests, make sure his penis is pointing down, literally tried everything but the poor lad still wakes up with a wet belly 😢

Help 🙏
