Can’t get baby back to sleep

My baby is currently awake and won’t go back to sleep if I put him down.

I asked my husband 3 times to help but he won’t because he worked until 8.30pm and is working all day tomorrow which I think is BS excuse. He thinks because he works long hours 6 days a week he doesn’t have to help

Well for infant parenting is a full time job as well if he likes it or not to sound in a rude way if he couldn't handle a bit of hard work labor then be home with his wife and kids clearly he seems a bit off at the end of the day he wanted this baby so he needs to show that he's willing to help u

I'm right there with you, my baby woke up at 2 and I'm still trying to rock her back to sleep lol. I just know when she eventually goes back off it'll be several business days before I'll be able to put her back down again 😂

DNA Test

My baby’s dad performed a DNA test on him and my baby without my knowledge or consent. My baby wasn’t even a month old at this point. Any advice or thoughts? He’s not on the birth certificate.

Co sleeping? Is it dangerous?

I had been co sleeping with my 6 month little girl for the past month, I met up with my friend who’s a nurse and she told about an 8 month old baby passed away due to co sleep (rolled on her tummy and couldn’t move).
It really scared me so the past week we have transferred her to her cot (still next to our bed) but she is wakes 7-10 times a night and I’m exhausted and struggling so bad.
Do you guys co sleep or has anyone successfully got their co sleeping baby into their cot?
Any advice would be amazing❤️

Circumcising

Did anyone get their son circumcised? If so, how did you guys help them during the healing process?
I’m asking because next month my son gets circumcised and I want to make sure he heals well

Baby found voice

My 10 month old has found her voice, it doesn’t bother me during the day of the pterodactyl screeching or weird sounds but for the last week now she will not go to sleep when it’s bed time, she’s up hours on end making sounds. Did this happen to anyone else’s baby? Did anyone find a way to make them go to sleep ?

How do I stop it?

Ever since I gave birth to my son I’ve been cosleeping. I know it’s not recommended and dangerous but sometimes I fall asleep while putting him to sleep and I wake up and I remember he’s with me. I’ve been doing it for a month now and want to stop until he’s old enough to cosleep with me but don’t know how to stop. I also noticed when I’m breastfeeding him and it’s late at night or I’m sleepy it’s more frequent
