Should I wake up my baby?

My 7 week old has her own routine, she goes to sleep around 7-8 and wakes up around 11pm n 12 am to feed, however, sometimes she goes to bed later than that and still asleep by the time she’s meant to wake up, does that make sense?
So should I wake her up or should I wait for her to wake up? I never woke her up during the night to feed.
Thank you ☺️

12 month development

Hi guy, wanting some help/advice. I have a 12 month old son. He hasn’t such much yet only dada and up but with no intention/context. He hasn’t clapped/pointed yet. He does understand so much, waves, high fives and shakes hand. Any advice or if someone related to this before? Thank you so much. Worried mom here.

New fears unlocked 🔓

Anyone have any fears of what your kid could do to you?

I'll go first.... My daughter poked me in the eye yesterday, she apparently scratched my eyeball 🫠

She has also spit up in my mouth before.

Brother has explosive pooped on my shirt.

What are some that y'all have dealt with 🫠

Bath time!

What do you guys do to make after bath time better? My little one loves to be in the bath but as soon as I take her out, she starts screaming and wont calm down for like 30 minutes. I want to make bath time her bed routine when shes old enough but she currently hates getting out. Any suggestions?

Routine or routine less

Ladies, those with 6/7week olds… what are your days currently looking like?

My little boy is 7 weeks on Wed, and every day is different… bar the wake up at 6am and “bed time” at 9pm (he’s asleep long before this but that’s when I take him up to bed with me and get him in his swaddle). He will then sleep for 3/3.30 hours from 9pm onwards, but hourly after that until 6am. We are very much just winging it with daytime naps and he fights them in the afternoon. He’ll often go for 6 hours awake 🥵🫠

Just interested to see what others days look like.

Do your child’s grandparents ever fall asleep whilst watching/looking after them?

My son is 4 and has summer holidays before starting school in September.

It’s day one of his grandad (age 68) watching him and he’s fallen asleep on the sofa whilst my son is watching tv

I’ll be working from the office 2 days a week.

Am I right to be concerned and ensure that another adult (grandma) is also home on the days I’ll be at the office?

Grandma is working zero hour contract (she’s 62)

Husband is also a hybrid worker part time at home and part time at the office.

Bedtime

I’m putting this as sensitive because sleep deprivation can cause a lot of damage and I don’t want to seem tone deaf.

My son goes to bed every night at 7pm and wakes up at 5am. No feeds or wake ups and has been like this since 13 weeks.

I’m so grateful for the long sleep however 5am is so early to get up for the day. I don’t necessarily want to push his sleep back till 8 incase that messes it up completely but I don’t know how I can get him to go for another hour to get a decent wake up time more so for him.

Is anyone having this issue?
