What time is your baby sleeping?

I felt guilty today when our health visitor said we should aim for baby to have night time routine completed and in bed by 7pm. It just feels way too early, my baby does not settle until much later. I wanted to find out how other parents are doing ?

Feeling hopeless, crying my eyes out every night and can’t take this anymore…

My 2.5 year old was an incredibly difficult baby, awake 6,7…8 times a night for about a year. Things plateaued for a while and she was a lovely lovely child, ate well, slept through, so kind and gentle.

Fast forward to now, terrible 2’s doesn’t even cover it. She screams, hits, bites and throws things at me. All. Day. She doesn’t eat ANYTHING, not even her safe comfort foods anymore, she will not go to sleep. It’s taking 3 hours average to put her to bed. I’m eating dinner at 12-1am sobbing through my meal. This is all day, every night. I have gentle parented her, I have kindly disciplined her, firmly disciplined, ignored her, walked away and even gone against my biggest morals and given her a slap on the wrist when she punched me in the eye. I’m at my f*cking whits end and I’m just so depressed and overwhelmed. I genuinely am so patient with anyone and everything but dealing with this day in and day out is making me want to literally run away or in front of a bus.

Video below is after 2 hours of trying to put her to bed and stepping out for 5 mins to gather myself together.

Sleeps

My little one doesn’t sleep well at night. My research has suggested he shouldn’t have naps longer than 2 hours in the day but he is sometimes having naps of 3/3.5 hours. Are we waking our babies? He is nearly 15 weeks! Any advice or experiences would be great

6 month old never happy

I'm just venting really. My 6 month old just seems never happy these days. He's cranky and whines all day long. He screams when I lay him down, when I try to play with him, when I look at him wrong etc. He has never cuddled me, but now he actively tries to push away from me with his arms and legs. He just seems permanently frustrated and it makes me so sad that I can't make him happy as his mummy.
Someone tell me this is a short phase and that it will get better 😥

Nappies

First time mum here👋🏼 what nappies is everyone getting or what nappies have you used in the past and found where the best? Currently got pampers but don’t want to stock up if there’s better ones that are slightly cheaper as pampers I find are so expensive 🤦🏽‍♀️❤️ thankyou x

What kind of hair products are yall using on ur sons hair?

I bought the lucci’s pomade and it not giving what this gave lol. My son got a hair cut and the woman said a baby gel would work great but it looks too slick back and oily looking with no hold. Maybe I’m not doing it right. His hair from this pic lasted through a nap😭😭

5 month olds crazy time??

Hi! I could really use a friend, my girl is just weird with sleep lately and not sleeping much unless with me. My man works and I stay at home but im just exhausted as she use to be able to nap without me and I just don't have anyone to talk to!
