Self Settling

Following because same!

Im hoping so! My LO starts next week so im crossing everything!

We cosleep because the cot stopped working for us at 6 months x

God no, only just getting to a point of rocking to sleep rather than feeding to sleep 😆
The self settlers are the rare babies, so dont stress x

Nope she’s still falling asleep on us at night and then being moved to the cot. If it helps my now 3.5 year old self settled from very young and then as she got older separation anxiety etc kicked in and she now needs are help to get to sleep and has since she was a toddler, even though she self settled as a baby, so I wouldn’t stress x

My daughter is also like this! She’s started nursery a couple of days ago and they are somehow able to get her in the cot for naps. She won’t go down for me. I cosleep with her too because she never liked the next-to-me cot. Following this in case anyone has tips!

My baby is the same, we’re actually still feeding to sleep as rocking doesn’t even work 😭

my first baby needed rocked to sleep til he was about 16 months, then we moved him to a floor bed and just cuddle him to sleep now

my daughter will be put down in her cot, and one of us will sit on the floor next to her and hold her hand until she falls asleep. even as a newborn she'd take herself off in the moses basket x

Mine will go to sleep independent for naps but not bedtime! We’re trying to move away from feeding to sleep atm so have been rocking instead (nkt sure if that’s any better!). I think it’s def a temperament thing as my first self settled with no issues basically from birth and we did all the same things second time round.

Mine was but since about a month ago his sleep has really gotten awful and now he screams and screams every bed and nap time. And in the night!!
