Anyone else's LO sleep still so bad? Like multiple wakings, unsettled sleep taking ages to go back down, sometimes split nights. I'm honestly slow losing it and feel like a failure

It sounds like your baby needs less sleep and is undertired. The most common cause for all the reasons you’ve stated is not enough sleep pressure. Baby sleep is not linear though and all are different. Please don’t feel like a failure. Some babies are capable and some aren’t. It’s still perfectly normal for babies to wake up. Some do to at least 3 and some even longer.
Track your baby’s sleep so you know what they are capable of and then only offer that much (naps and night sleep). https://www.instagram.com/reel/Dd6OGyUKzwM/?dlrf=MjdqNjVpYXN0OXIy
What is your current schedule?

My baby is the same its driving me nuts from lack of sleep i feal im not geting any sleep and what I get is a quality of 2 because he screams till he is in my bed has a fead then wakes up later to climb all over me
then he has epilepsy so we also have sleep deprive nights on purpose so we can go hospital in the early hours of the morning for sleep eegs and thay chuck us all down a grumpy mood

Yep! My girls sleep is so all over the place pretty much every single night goes differently. I’m currently trying wake up no later than 6:30 (she shares a room with her older sister so has to have an earlier bedtime and wake time) 1 nap at 12-1 and then in cot at 6:40ish x

Yes my baby often does nearly an 8 hour wake window. Yesterday at nursery she slept for 10 minutes so did 11:30 am until bedtime at 8:30.
Wake windows are essentially made up garbage. All babies are different. Knowing their sleep needs will help you with how long naps need to be and how long night sleep. Most babies are capable of 10-11 hours at night 🥰

Yes! He’s not been the best sleeper anyway but it can sometimes take ages for him to actually fall asleep because he just loves to talk and clap his hands 😅 then he is up and down a good 2-3 times a night 😭 being back at work whilst this is happening is brutal
I got sent the hospital yesterday as baby girl isnt measuring how they would like and they said that it doesn’t look like I have enough fluid, is there anything i can do that can help with fluid or is there anything I can do to change these things??

My little boy is 3.5 weeks old and I feel like I’m still just getting through each day.
We manage to get out for a walk a day and I always make sure I get a shower in but I feel like I spend most of my time sat down at home watching TV and feeding/holding my little one, pretty much all of his naps are contact naps which I love but I feel so unproductive.
Should I be getting out more? Going to baby groups? Just wondering what others days looked like at 3/4 weeks and when you started making plans with your days.

I’m 34 weeks and don’t feel there any sign of baby turning, I’ve been doing breech tilt and leaning off the sofa and I’m more concerned baby is wedged bum down in my pelvis and won’t be able to get out himself or he’s stuck in the cord(stupid I know) going to try the hot cold trick tonight and see what he does

Ok so Ive been having recurring similar bad dreams. And I read that sometimes you can have aggressive dreams about your spouse doing stupid things. So here's the question I have, what kind of strange dreams did you have about your partner while you were pregnant?
