What time of day are we bathing our babies? We tend to feed 6:30am, 10am, 1pm, 4pm, 7pm, 10pm, 3am at the moment. I'm tending to do the bath at 7pm and follow up with milk, which seems to work well for us and helps him wind down for the evening. Just curious as to what others do!

1 pm….but I am struggling to make him wind down in the evening….he doesn’t sleep the whole night….at max he will stay asleep for 20 minutes then back to the cycle

We bath her before her last bottle before ‘bed’, so she’s got a bottle straight after she’s had a bath, this then settles her well for the night x

We do the same at you, feed 6.30pm followed by bath then another short feed and bed x

I feed on demand but i try and tire my baby out and keep him awake for along as possible then bath between 7-8 then feed then bed hes 5 weeks

We don’t do baths every night but when I do bath her it’s usually once I have put my older 3 children to bed, so about 8:30/9ish or we will have a morning bath xx

At first I thought all those times were when you were bathing your baby lol (sorry I'm tired). But we have been giving our 7 week old a bath at around 7:30pm or 8pm, just after his older brother goes to sleep

So this means bathing time definitely has an impact on the sleeping routine?
I am so sick of feeling guilty and being made to feel guilty. It is exhausting and it's killing me.

Baby has been sleeping through the night since 10 weeks old. Is now nearly 14 weeks. I am still frequently up to the toilet through the night and I’m disturbing him. Considering putting him into his own room with the monitor. He naps in it during the day without the monitor and I can hear him as his room is right next door. Did anyone else move their baby this young? 🙈

I know doctors don’t recommend babies sleeping on their stomach but my baby girl has been giving me a hard time when it comes to sleeping in her crib. I was thinking of trying to let her sleep on her stomach. I really don’t want to cosleep this time around. Any tips or advice?

Does anyone have advice on whether to wake a sleepy baby for feeding or changing clothes? I'm nervous about letting my baby sleep long stretches—what do other parents do if their baby misses a feed or needs changing but is sleeping soundly?
