I accidentally fell asleep with my toddler on the couch a whole 10 mins before bed and now she’s up and ready to go 🥲 it was literally 10 mins before my partner came in and we unsuccessfully tried to keep her sleeping while we moved her 🙃 she’s now in her room jumping on her trampoline saying jump jump jump 🤦♀️
My 8 week old has been struggling to sleep in her snuzpod for the past few weeks. As soon as she is put down she wakes up crying but if I put her on my bed she sleeps so well. I really don’t like co-sleeping, I sleep on the edge of the bed because I’m so worried about her sleeping with me but I’ve been up all night ...
Hey ladies, I’m hoping for some advice I gave birth to my beautiful daughter on the 9 January 2024 she’s only three days old, she will sleep in the day not a problem and be settled but will not settle and sleep at night unless in my arms. I’m finding this super hard as I’m not sleeping and at times I’m almost dozing...
Hi my baby is 7 weeks and seems to be sleeping longer stretches during night. The other night he hadn’t woken after 5 hours before last feed so we woke him as we were worried. Is it okay to naturally just let them wake for a feed?
What time are you doing your last feeds? My baby sleeps through the night now and trying to establish a good night time routine. What time is your last feed and how much do you give them? Baby is 12 weeks x
Hi mums! What age do yous recommend to have naps during the day upstairs ?

What is everyone’s opinion on waking baby during the night to feed? All my midwives have said she needs to be woken up every 3/4 hours to feed however, during the nighttime, she sometimes sleeps longer than this. Should I be waking her up or let her sleep as she will wake up when she is hungry anyway? She is onl...
Does anyone else’s baby not settle in a next to me crib or a Moses basket? The only time my baby will settle is if she’s co sleeping with me and she likes to be directly next to me. She’s only going to be 4 weeks next week so I assume this is normal newborn behaviour? Any tips to help her settle in her moses basket?
My LO has been hard work to get to sleep for about 5x days, I usually feed to sleep but since last week he is wide awake when I lay him in the cot and babbles, fidgets, cried when I leave the room and takes 1-2hrs before eventually he knackers himself out and falls asleep Has anyone else gone through this? Not sure ...
I know it’s the dream for our babies to sleep through. My baby has currently been asleep 7 hours 20 minutes. He has NEVER slept this long and I’m laid awake worrying ha! He is fed expressed breastmilk and has no formula and I’m sure I heard that babies on breastmilk won’t sleep through because they need that nightt...
My little one keeps napping really close to bed time, around 7, and we usually put him to bed around 8:30/9. He usually sleeps for about 20/30 minutes, and I'm really worried it's going to affect his actual bedtime sleep if it keeps happening. What can we do? He's obviously tired still when he wakes up and he only...
SOS! 6mo usually a fantastic sleeper who would happily go down in cot from quite early on (grateful for it!). Over the last 1-2 weeks he wakes up after 1.5 hours of being asleep in next to me crib screaming crying for no obvious reason (nappy is ok, not due food, had calpol/anbesol for teething, no wind). He will n...
My 8 month old doesn’t settle down till gone 12am I have cut his second nap of the day out and still this hasn’t changed anything 😩 Any advice will be much appreciated 😅x
I've no idea if this is the 4 month regression as he's always been a shit sleeper but every night it's 2/3 hours of crying, false starts, dummy being put back in every two mins, failed attempts to give milk as he kicks off regularly when being fed now... We've got a dark room, white noise, red light, and I always cu...
