How to change baby’s sleep cycle? HELPP

currently my LO (7 months) bedtime is 12am to 7am wake up for a feed then goes straight to sleep and wakes up around 10:30/11am. Has two naps in the day the latest ones around 6-8pm. It works for me because I sleep at the same time as her. But I don’t want her to sleep like this forever.. anyone had the same issue 😩 NEED HELP on how to adjust it and push back her bedtime to an earlier one or will it happen naturally …?

Depending where you live the clocks change Sunday which may help adjust it an hour for you.

Other than than I'd start waking baby up 15 minutes earlier and adjusting everything else to match. Give it a few days then do the same again.

Keep going until the timings match what you want more.

Set a routine for her and keep to it. Her body will naturally settle into it once you follow it consistently. Happy to share my routine with you if you need some guidance. My girl just turned 8 months

You could do 15 minutes earlier or later on everything every day depending which way you want their sleep to go until you’re at the times you want. And then she’s not being forced to stay awake for ages after her afternoon nap and getting grouchy and even harder to put to sleep on bad days

Social services

I have been referred to social services due to a cancelled abortion clinic appt as they were worried about emotional abuse/coercive control. I have another toddler already. Feeling very stressed and anxious. Has anyone had this experience themselves or have any experience of social services assessment? They advised they will be visiting me.

Getting sex life back!

11 months after having a baby and we had sex probably twice or 3 times I can't even remember. I love my husband so much that i feel sorry for him. I have zero libido but I don't mind trying, it's just the thought of it makes me feel sick like I have never had sex before in my whole life. If someone was in the same place what did you do? I co sleep and breast feed for context.
