Sleeping though

How to get my 11 month old to sleep though the night and not wake up for milk..

I just wanna sleep the whole night sick of getting woken up every single night.

Can’t cope with sleep deprivation anymore

My 9 month old basically refuses to sleep. He constantly wakes up in the night and like
Tonight I’ve been up 3 hours with him.

He’ll sleep in my bed but I don’t want him in here because then I’m just giving in and giving him what he wants. I don’t even sleep when he’s in my bed either because I’m so uncomfortable.

I don’t even know what to do anymore at this point. I’m a miserable person from the sleep deprivation and incredibly depressed but health visitors and doctors are useless 😭

Nursery settling in period

My LB has been settling into nursery this week and is doing amazing. Only cried once when we re-entered - can't lie I felt a bit betrayed having been on mat leave with him for 11.5 months but I digressed. Anyway for the last two three days he's been waking up 6am instead of 6.30am. Is this normal? Also they only do one nap at nursery at midday. He still has two naps as if he's awake for too long he becomes really fussy and whiny until he goes to sleep so I'm worried how they will transition him to one nap. Also, his nap is just before the time he needs to be nursery each day for settling in between 9.30/10am. Oh and for the first time ever he refused his bedtime bottle last night. Would love to hear your experiences and advice please.

Daughter diagnosed with not what I thought

My 13 year old daughter has been been having neurodivergent symptoms for years from age 9 more so, I have been fighting for a diagnosis and a assesment for her to get her the suport. I took her when she was 10 to the doctors due to what I thought was depression to get her support and they mentioned a possible high functioning autism into it. So we have fighting for a assesment for that for years. I have sacrificed everything my job, my life completly to support her, the half term meltdowns, the agression, the shutdowns and protecting as well as suppporting my younger 2 children. Days where she would kick the door down while I sit behind it until she calmed down as the explosion of her would be so huge I neeeded to protect myself and her siblings. I found out yesterday after going through right to choose assesments that she doesnt actually have autism or adhd but depression and anxiety as the report says and feedback video call. Not being selfish or rude. I have given up everything and that is hard to process and feeling broken and dont know what to do with my life as my litterallly when your daughter has been been having neurodivergent symptoms for years, fighting for a diagnosis and i have sacrificed everything my job, my life to find out she doesnt actually have autism or adhd but depression and anxiety. i have given up everything and that is hard to process and feeling brokengrieving thewhen your daughter has been been having neurodivergent symptoms for years, fighting for a diagnosis and i have sacrificed everything my job, my life to find out she doesnt actually have autism or adhd but depression and anxiety. i have given up everything and that is hard to process and feeling broken past few years of sacrifices and memories ruined for her doing it on as it feels purpose.

The transfer

Does ANYONE have ANY tips on how to transfer baby into her bassinet after each feed during the night, she’ll fall asleep as soon as she’s finished but as soon as I let go when putting her down she’s awake and crying,

From a desperate sleep deprived mum 🥲

Baby has a cold

My baby is 9 month old and has a cold I have saline nasal spray, baby Vicks and a snot sucker. The only thing he’ll take is calpol. Does anyone have any advice on what I could do to help him, this will be the 5th time he’s woken up since 8pm, he’s just so unsettled and I feel terrible for him 😢
