Baby sleeping

Hi mom's, how do you get your baby to sleep a full 8 or 12 hours every night, I'm suffering my baby girl only sleep for a few minutes every night, I mean she'll fall asleep at say for example 8pm and by 8:15 or before she's up again, I'm struggling really bad and I'm so tired and stressed out I need help

Ready mixed formula

Best ready mixed formula for an EBF 6 months old bubba. We are going on holiday and mamma needs a drink 💃🏼

Also the difference between first and infant milk?

Nap routines

Do you guys have a strict nap routine? Up to this point I’ve been following babies cues more than anything but today he had a really long third nap so I’m currently having to try to stretch the last wake window until bedtime (last time I offered a short catnap and woke him up, her was absolutely furious and bedtime was a nightmare 😬)

He’s normally up around 6am (awake a bit earlier but I wait until he’s fussing just incase he settles), was on an average of 4 naps and bedtime at 7pm.

Today he woke from his nap at 3:20pm and I don’t think I can delay bedtime any later than 6:30 🫣

Just wondering if a stricter routine would help maybe 🤷🏼‍♀️

Sleep help

How do you cope? My little girl will not be put down anymore. She will -scream- the entire way through the night if I am not stood rocking her or feeding her. The second I try and put her down she wakes up and will not stop screeching until she’s picked up again. I have had flu after flu this winter and i was hospitalised earlier this week because my body cant cope with having no rest and being unable to get better. Im so done with this I need sleep. I never wanted to do the cry it out method but even when I’ve had to because I literally didnt have the physical strength to pick her up, she would never stop crying. I tried making the bed warm, laying her on my t-shirt, white noise, lullabies, silence, pitch black then low lights etc etc, I am getting no sleep and its killing me.

Worst part is I have a husband but he has no regard for any of it. He’s never once helped me put her down or woken up to soothe her not a single time and shes almost 10 months. He knows how ill I am and how much I need rest. His excuse is that he goes to work. I was supposed to return to work a few weeks ago and I did go a couple days but then I have been put on bed rest by the doctors and not worked since because I physically can’t. I am so sick of being ill and he’s completely neglecting me and our daughter. How does anyone do this.

Sorry needed that rant

How many hours sleep does your baby get in the day? (Comments) and when is bedtime?

My little guy only gets a total of 10 hours sleep daily at 8 months. He’s clearly miserable as he’s tired all the time but waking every 2 hours still at night.
