My baby is four months old and I noticed last night he was asleep on his side and his head completely tilted back, I did move him back onto his back (how we always put him down) but he kept going back into that position.

We’re also not sure if he has his first cold as a bit sniffly. Has anyone else had this ?

Just keep him unswaddled or use an arms free sleep sack once they start being able to roll theres no stopping them. My daughter rolls to her side now when sleeping ill check shes still breathing and leave her to it she can roll to her back again if she wants to and has good head control if she manages to go on to her front

Ye, mine started to do it before she could roll. I just let her. As long as she is contained in her bed am happy, she seems to sleep better in whatever position she puts herself in.

Split nights

I’m literally at breaking point I don’t know what else to do. My 13 month old has never been a good sleeper. But for the last 4 weeks has been up for 2 hours in the middle of the night with a couple more wakes before that. We’ve sleep trained him to fall asleep on his own, we’ve capped his naps, extended/lowered his wake windows and I don’t know what else we can try. I understand they go through regressions/split nights but surely 4 weeks is not it. I’m sat in bed crying, absolutely exhausted and feel like the worst mum in the world as he needs his sleep. I just wanted to know if anyone else has been through the same or has any advice?

Doing it wrong 😴🤣

I just realised I’ve been using the Milton tablets wrong after seeing another post 🤣 I’ve been soaking the mam bottles and parts in soapy water before a wash and rinsing then soaking it in the Milton water solution. I’d then rinse once more then put them in the microwave to sterilise. Hadn’t realised the tablet is a steriliser all these months 🤣 My LO is 8 months now 🤣

Signed a clearly exhausted, lost a few brain cells mum 🤣🤣

Husband concerned with co sleeping

Been co sleeping with our daughter for a good few months now. My husband recently shared that he’s not comfortable with it as accidents can happen. He’s afraid we’ll roll over on her or she’ll get stuck under a blanket or pillow.
My husband and I are both bigger people, with me being 5’8 and him 5’11.
I understand his fear because accidents do happen, but I don’t see what’s wrong with co sleeping.
If we can find a safe compromise for her to co sleep with us.
I’m able to get my baby to sleep in her crib, which is bedside, for around 2 hours before she wakes up looking for me.
I’m just feeling a bit stuck.

Baby carriers?

I have a 7 month baby, and she is pretty heavy to hold now when I need to get things done. I’ve been on a search for baby carriers and I found two, the wildbird carrier or the tush baby with the snug. Need some opinions on which is better, or recommendations!

Up all night

It's been weeks now of no sleep because I seem to be in a permanent cycle of change nappy - breast feed - put down - baby wakes up. Cycle starts all over again and I'm exhausted. Does anyone have any tips?
