Is it illegal in the uk to lock a child In there bedroom at night for safety reasons . I would never do this in the day or as a punishment . But I am very scared for my daughter's safety and ours . My daughter who is 5 has adhd and I think autism . She is very impulsive and will do things to take risks . Recently h...
Hi guys, I have a 3 month old baby girl, she has 4 bottles around 120-180 ml in 24 hours. She feeds every 4 hours during day time however at 7pm is when she has her final bottle for the night and sleep until 7 am the next morning. Is this normal?? Should I be worried?
So my 2.5 year old is knackered all the time! She goes to bed for 7pm but wakes you up a few hours later and has to sleep in our bed. She no longer naps because if she does she won’t go to sleep at night! Will it get better? Should she nap? I’m battered all the time She’s very aggressive and quick to throw tant...
Anyone else’s newborn rarely sleeping? My LO, who is nearly 4 weeks, does a handful of 20/30 minute naps recently - maybe one 1+ hour nap during the day. And they do one long 4 hour stretch at night and that’s it!! I thought newborns were supposed to sleep 16+ hours.😩
How long is everyone staying awake during the night feeds?
So, my little boy has been in a routine of going to bed at 9pm for a while now. I’ve been going up at 9, getting him sorted and sticking the tv on. This has worked well but now I think he’s ready to go to bed earlier and I wondered how everyone navigates this. I’ve spoken to my mum and she says to just take him up a...
Anyone else dead AGAINST it?
My baby was born on Thursday evening and we got home today, she has hardly settled since being home and will not sleep in the Moses basket at all. I’m struggling with breastfeeding as it’s hurting so much so she’s been having a few syringes of colostrum in between. We’ve been burping her, trying to feed, rocking he...
Excruciating 1.5-2 hours every day to put 2.5 year old to nap! Even when he is sleepy, can’t get him to sleep. I’m losing my mind, depressed and agitated. No control over anything, no breaks. Can’t do anything for myself. How do you get your toddler to nap?
Is huckleberry wrong? it keeps doing this to me. giving me a “3 nap day” but it providers me with a 4th nap? (pics in comments) you can see from attached pic we’ve had 3 naps. i don’t understand if i should be giving a 4th nap or having sleeping time at the last nap when it says this
So i went out tonight and had 3 gins and a beer. My partner said he was gonna sleep next to baby and give him bottles of boobie milk but I'm worried he's actually quite drunk 🫣 so I'm going to do the night. Has anyone else done a night with their baby after some drinks? I'm so worried I'm gonna sleep through his…
My 6 month old has suddenly started hysterically crying out in his sleep, often his eyes are still shut and it’s 0-100 hysterical crying with real tears. It can sometimes take him a good few minutes to settle and calm once I’ve picked him up and soothed him. It’s so distressing and upsetting 😥 does anyone’s else’s…
My baby is 5months + 1 week and I’m still rocking him to sleep? I feel like I’m doing the wrong thing because no one else is able to put him to sleep. My parents have tried to rock him for a nap but he just literally laughs at them or wriggles about. My partner can rock him to sleep for his day time naps but can’t...
Any tips on how to stop my LG feeding to sleep. She won't take a dummy and during the day for her naps will have a feed and then fall asleep in a pushchair or in the car but for her night sleep she will only fall asleep from a feed. She is BF and we have started to introduce formula so we will have stopped BF by the...
My LG is 1 and the last few nights she’s gone to sleep for an hour then woken up and cried for a good hour or so. I do the usual pick her up and try to comfort her, look out for any signs that she’s in discomfort or not feeling well. Offer more milk, check her nappy yet she still won’t settle. I try to rock and hug ...
were you allowed to have sleepovers as a child?
I got rid of my little one’s dummy at around 7 months. She’s now 13 months. She sleeps really well so this is not for a sleep fix BUT I am finding in the last month or so that often when I’m out she can be really challenging, especially if I’m in the supermarket or something and I find it really overwhelming when s...
What are ways to help baby self sooth? I doht want her relying on a pacifier if I can help it
How many naps, and how many longer naps, does your 6-month-old take (or used to take)? I read that babies this age should have 2–3 naps a day, each lasting around 1 to 1.5 hours. My baby takes 4–5 naps, but they’re only about 30 minutes long. Thank you 💕
Breastfeeding mums - how are you settling your little ones in the night when they wake? I currently feed and he falls asleep on the boob and I pop him back into his next to me. This has always been the case and has always worked. However, he is currently going through sleep regression and is waking every 2hrs duri...
