So confused with 2 naps! 🫠

Hello mamas

Whoever is on 2 naps, how do you even manage to do them?

My baby keeps waking up 5:30/6/6:30am max
There is no way I can do 2 naps when baby wakes up so early 😒
I need at least 7am wake up time but even with 7am , baby will go sleep like 7pm with 2 naps . There is no chance baby will sleep 7pm-7am 🙈
Feels like I will never come out from 3 naps if baby will continue waking up so early 🫠

Any advise how to make baby wake up later haha 🤣

My baby wakes at 6am (sometimes around 5) she will have a nap about 3/4 hours after waking sometimes earlier. Then, she will usually have an afternoon nap. Everyday is different tbh, depends on what were doing and how she is.

Honestly, I would just stick with 3 until they seem ready for 2. With mine, his first nap got longer and he was seeming not tired for longer and it got to the point where I couldn't fit 3 in anymore! (This has literally just happened in the last week or 2) There was a bit of pain while we transitioned because he was waking up a long time before bed time but not long enough to fit the last nap in but after a few days it settled. And if he wakes up super early or whatever, I just let him have 3.

My baby wakes up between 6-7am. He then has a nap between 8.30/9.30am for 2-3 hours.

His final nap is at 2/3pm for 2ish hours

His bedtime is 8pm

Dehydrated over night?

My boy, 5 weeks old, has been sleeping really well through the night but woke up this morning with a dry nappy so I tickled his tummy with a wipe and he did a wee but it was not much and had the tiniest bit of urate crystals. I'll be contacting hv at 9 but does anyone have any suggestions? Should I be waking him for a night feed?
He slept 10:30pm till 5am which is great but I'm worried it's dehydrating him. Anyone had a similar experience?

Feeling paranoid 🤯

My brother was playing with my 9 month d and was just throwing him in the air… Im paranoid that he will get brain damage or something as I googled it and it said you shouldn’t throw them in the air. It wasn’t done roughly. He was just playing with him 😩🥺

Am I in the wrong ?

So me and my partner have an on going issue.
I have got up every night and every morning with our daughter ( 2half )
He doesn't get up till 9am He gets ready and goes to work around 9:30 - 9:45 so He spends about 15 minutes with us each morning. This is my problem 🙄 He turns round to me every time I bring this up and says I'm working on the road so I need my sleep unless you want me to have an accident. I'm angry all the time about his respons as I feel it's just an excuse for not getting up and spending time with us. He doesn't get back till around 7:30 or later each night so he doesn't get to see our daughter much as she is in bed by 8 - 8:30. So He will have about half hour if that. He then decides to come to bed about 1 or later so we don't see echother much but apparently that's my fault as I go up to bed as my daughter is normally up in the night and full awake by 6am.

Am i in the wrong for addressing He doesn't spend enough time with his daughter and he should get-up earlier to spend this time with her before work 🤷‍♀️( He only has one day a week off )

Crying

Does anyone else’s baby just cry allll the time. I feel like the only time my baby doesn’t cry is when they’re asleep! She does have reflux but is on medication for this but I just feel like unless I hold her all day she just cries it’s so exhausting

Is there TMI on here or am I just too sensitive?

I see a lot of posts about abuse, neglect, and honestly medical emergencies on here. One reason I stray from social media is because the lack of discernment of people.

Therapy is what some of these posts need to be directed towards. Calling the cops on a handful of others. I know we are hormonal and what not. But if you don’t want honest opinions and bluntness along with the more gentle moms of comfort. Is it too much to ask, “Should I post this? Do I really want a strangers opinion on this matter?”

And I could be wrong and that’s okay too.

Does anyone have a fully pitch black room for you/kids to sleep in? Does it help with sleep or eye tiredness?

So many gaps in our black out curtains or blinds means when its summer its never totally dark n at night there is some street light coming thru

Did a fully pitch black room help you or your kids with sleep?
