Sleep regression
Hate to be this person as I see so many babies/mamas on here being affected by this sleep regression but my baby is 20 weeks on Thursday and so far, we haven’t really struggled with nighttime sleep, she sleeps through and has done since 10 weeks. We are only really struggling with daytime naps (being super short). Has the nighttime sleep regression been delayed for any one else? Or have I just got really lucky?

It doesn’t always affect night time sleep but there is plenty more to come that can like teething, crawling, learning to walk etc x
It can just be day time naps. Technically the short naps are part of it - they’re learning how to connect their sleep cycles. So you’re probably just seeing it there rather than at night 🙂
Mine is 17 weeks, her day time sleep is coming on - she can settle herself and most naps are on her own, but they’re only 40-45 minutes for now. But night time is trickier to settle into sleep and then lighter (noisy) sleep from around 2am. She isn’t technically awake, but she surfaces at the end of every cycle and makes so much noise 🤣
We had the same with our daughter who is now 3. The regression only affected her naps and never affected night sleep. Hopefully you'll be the same! With our son, it's a different story 😅 x
Hope you haven’t just jinxed yourself 😂😜

Nursery
Hey mummies and daddies, has anybody got experience with baby not getting used to nursery? My daughter started at 12 months (a month ago) and still has a meltdown every time we drop her off. How long until it settles? I worry that she’s just not happy there :(

My fault apparently
Basically I have a 5 year old son and I'm having a little girl in October but unfortunately I don't have my son living with me and my unborn daughter can't come home either it's because of domestic violence records cohesive behaviour physical and mental abuse from him and hes always yelling at me saying it's my fault because I was in care and I'm on methadone it's killing me inside

Night shifts
How are we doing night shifts with our partners?
My partner is back at work so I only wake him up for nappy changes (my back still kills me after c-section). I breastfeed and our little dude eats every 2-3 hours and then takes a while to settle again. I know if I passed him to my partner, it would just be another thing to wake baby up even more. And I feel bad because he’s back at work.
So I spend most of the night awake.
3 weeks PP, so my milk supply is still calibrating and bottles aren’t an option until 5 weeks or so.
I also really struggle with day time sleeping and with going to bed early, so the idea of him taking baby 7pm-1am and me doing 1am-7am would also cost me sleep.
I’m so tired, I’m absolutely losing it 😭

6 weeks sleeping short
Is 2-3h sleep still normal for 6 weeks old? I thought they'd longer stretches by now

Pacifier
Any tips for getting toddler off pacifier? She doesn’t use it as much as she used to but it seems like when she’s sleepy or trying to self soothe she wants it but I’m trying to get her off of it completely she’s almost 2 and I don’t want it to effect her teeth or anything
