Sleeping

My nearly 4 month old has come out his bassinet due to weight limits and he’s now in his next to me in our bedroom again.
He used to sleep a dream in his bassinet, (6-7 hours) but I’m really struggling to get him to sleep longer stretches whilst in the next to me. I get 2 hours before he’s awake, and I can soothe him back to sleep just to get another couple of hours till he’s awake again. He has full feeds all day and is only formula fed.
We had this before with the next to me crib, so we moved him to his bassinet but there’s not much I can do now as he’s hit that weight limit.. I don’t know if he just doesn’t like the next to me crib🤣
Any advice or suggestions to try and get a longer stretch of sleep? I don’t think he’s going through the 4 month sleep regression as we’ve been away this weekend and he’s slept 7 hours every night in the bassinet, it only seems to be when he’s in the next to me x

Floor bed on holiday

My 7 month old is in a floor bed, which works amazingly at home. We go on holiday in a few weeks where I'll be sharing a double bed with him (there is a travel cot available but he's never really slept in a cot so I don't want this to be our only option as I'm not convinced he'll sleep in it).

The double bed obviously won't be on the floor....what are makeshift budget ways (that actually will stop a rolling around 7 month old) that can stop him rolling out of the 3 open sides without having to spend money on 3 side bed rails?

Any tips welcome x

Feeling drained

Anyone else feeling physically and emotionally drained now? How do you do?

Controversial opinion but I found it a lot easier to care for baby when she was a tiny newborn, all was new, still running on adrenaline and she was sleeping during the day! Now that she is 3 months old, it's hard and it never stops.

I feel I have been "on" for the past 3 months and now reaching my limit. Anything will set me off, I have no patience with baby and keep arguing with hubby.

Am I alone feeling like this? Any tips? Will it get better?

Has anyone successfully sold their travel systems?

The car seat & travel cot/pushchair are all in decent condition. I paid just over £200 for it & was hoping to sell it.

I've posted it on FB but no luck. I'd really like to make a bit of money but it's unfortunately looking like I'll have to give it away for free.

What have you guys done with yours?

My 2 week old won’t sleep without touching me, HELP!

So my boy is 2 weeks 2 days. The first week he slept fine in his bassinet now he will not sleep without touching me! And scream if I put him down. Does anyone safely co sleep or find a way to help them sleep without you? I get super anxious about co sleeping.

Biting and pinching and pulling hair

My little boy is nearly 16 months old and he is getting really nasty he's pulling chunks out of people's hair, pinching and biting to the point your bleeding. I've tried everything I've smacked his hands told him no we don't hurt people moved him away from everyone when he's being nasty I've even bit his finger lightly nothing seems to be working. I honestly just need some guidance or some tips at this point I don't want him to be known as the nasty boy everyone avoids he has got his sweet loving moments but at this point there's not many
