Toddler Bed

How old was you little when you converted their crib into a toddler bed? My daughter is almost 16 months and I took hers off.

If I remember clearly, when my kids were close to 2 years old. I switched them over to toddler bed. They had no problem sleeping in it.

We skip a toddler bed and go straight from the crib to a full size bed. Our son transitioned at 23 months because that is when he started climbing out of the crib. Our daughter is 19 months and we actually just put the bed in her room with her crib so she can get used to the idea of having a bed in her room. We’ll transition her to the bed once she starts climbing out of her crib.

We transitioned my oldest just before 2 because he was climbing out of the pack and play. We transitioned my middle child at 2 because we got her her toddler bed for her 2nd birthday. I plan to transition my youngest around 2 as well.

When she was a little over 2. We had a mini crib so she was getting to small for it. I would have kept her in it until she started to climb out.

My son will go from Co sleeping to a toddler bed. He’s 10.5 m and is starting to nap in it just now. Around 13/15m I’m hoping he’ll sleep there overnight

He was 1 exactly, we did it on his 1st bday

That’s lovely!

Our daughter will be 2 this December and she's not even interested in climbing out her crib yet. This is what we are planning on doing with her bed. Unfortunately it will be a twin bed due to lack of space 🥺

I just switched to a toddler bed 2 days ago my daughter started trying to climb out . She eighteen months

Help! First time mum -

I have a 4 month old and now all of a sudden when he’s been asleep for 1hr30/2hrs he will wake up screaming (high pitched) I’ve tried winding him sometimes that helps, I’ve tried bicycle legs & bringing his knees up but that doesn’t seem to help but he brings his knees up himself sometimes but nothing happens. I’ve noticed since the 4 month mark he has started to struggle passing wind downwards! Any tips?

Hour night wakes and 5am get up

Can anyone shed some light as to why on earth my child doesn’t want to sleep??? My eyeballs are bleeding!!

Never been a good sleeper, but the problems always changing. He’s nearly 9 months old.

Beginning of the month he dropped to 2 naps. We could put him to bed at 7pm and he’d get up for the day at 6am, with multiple wake ups every 2/3 hours.

Now we put him down at 7pm, he can do a good 4/5 hour stretch, but come 1/2am he’s up every hour then getting up for the day at 5am. This then completely messes up the day because I can’t keep him awake long enough to even get to 7pm, let alone later.

He has 2 naps, roughly about 1hr10 each but it changed based on when he wakes and trying to get him to a reasonable bed time.

What could be the reason for this? 6am is fine, but 5am is not 😩😩

Bath Time

Help! My baby is 3 and a half weeks old. Every bath she goes in quite happy but will only stay like this for a very few mins, if I try to clean her or move her we have tears and after a few mins the same. It's like she is scared. Our current baby bath is quite big should I try a different one? Looking for any suggestions as want her to enjoy bath time not be upset and I'm scared I'm going to make her hate it😢💗

Don’t want to leave my first born😭😭😭

Anyone else extremely sad and anxious to leave their first born😭

He’s 2 and we have never not put him to bed or be here for when he wakes up😭

I’m so sad and anxious about leaving him

Crying during feeding

Hey mams! My girl is 6 weeks on Monday and is having so much trouble with feeding. It doesn’t happen every feed but more often than not she will start a bottle and just start crying as if she’s in pain and she can’t take the milk. I think it’s trapped wind but I genuinely don’t know what to do it’s so pitiful to see her not be able to feed! She’s formula fed and on HiPP Organic.
Anyone else been in this position? I’m pretty sure it’s just a bit of trapped wind that she needs to fart out but can’t! If anyone has any advice I’d be very grateful as I think I may need to tape my eyelids open soon 😂

Sleeping
