Community Posts, Tips & Support on Baby Sleep

My baby just turned 5 months old a couple of days ago and he’s suddenly started to automatically go to his side when I lay him on his back to sleep. Is this normal? I keep putting him back onto his back and I feel like it’s unsafe but not sure?

This has got to be THE worst sleep regression. Her screams are so loud and we're onto the 3rd hour so far. I'm a single mum and I just want to cry. If I bring her into my room (which I end up doing) she goes to sleep straight away but then I can't sleep properly. I'm trying to atick to putting her back down into h...

My 2.5 year old is going through a period where it’s taking her about an hour and a half once being put to bed to actually fall asleep. She has about a 45 minute nap in the day currently as well. By the time she falls asleep it’s nearly 9pm and then she’s awake by 6:30am. She is also waking once or twice In the nigh...

we’re struggling HARD with sleep training. he’s 5 months old. it takes him 30+ minutes of crying- sometimes screaming- in his crib to go to sleep. i’m with him the whole time- he’s never alone, always comforted and responded to. i only do the occasional pick up if he’s truly screaming, because i just can’t take that...

Do any of you guys co sleep with your baba? And if so what do you do other than follow safe sleep 7? Do any of you use a bed guard just to ease your mind knowing your little one can’t roll and fall off the bed? Are there any other tips you’d recommend? Really want to try co sleeping as my baby is so clingy and h...

We have decided that this weekend is the weekend the pacifier goes. I need all the tips and tricks for getting my Little one off the Bink. TIA

Guys I’m so tired. I ate a bowl of cereal and needed a nap. When does the energy kick in? I feel like I need a B12 shot

We've recently figured out that my son is scared of the dark after being unsure why he has been so unsettled at night for a few weeks! Does anyone recommend a good night light? Alot that we have seen look very bright and we only want it to light up the room a little. Also preferably a plug in! Saves me buying a ...

My son has never been a good sleeper, he’s always needed a lot of help taking naps. He needs to be rocked with a bottle and sung to. He fights naps sooo hard and lately he’s been getting violent when I try to get him to nap. Any advice? Sincerely, pregnant and desperate

Hi all! For those that are on one nap, what time do you tend to put your lo’s down for it? Or what does your typical day look like it, timing wise. My lo is transitioning from two to one but doesn’t sleep for very long. When he was on two naps he’d sleep for about 90 mins across the two naps. Since being on one na...

For the last 7 months I haven’t slept any longer than 3 or 4 hours (since my son was born) my son doesn’t sleep and when he does for around an hour at a time even at night, since 4 months his bed time has been at 7pm (he put himself in that routine) then wakes up every hour on the hour then refuses to go back down a...

My baby is 8 weeks old and he always pees loads usually. I’m talking as soon as we put a nappy on the line goes blue😂 He’s had a dry nappy for over an hour now and I’m worried because it’s so out of the ordinary for him. Everywhere online says not to be concerned until nappy has been dry for 6 hours ???

Baby will be 8 months next week and is really rolly during the day, front to back and back to front. Tonight for the first time when falling asleep she has rolled onto her front. I'm so nervous, she's never done this before and she seems comfortable enough and obviously I know she can roll perfectly fine during ...

I feel bad that I haven't got her to nap in her cot yet Also, won't sleep in there at night

Please tell me this is just a ‘phase’…. My 6month old baby boy has decided he now hates his cot. He used to go down fine for a good 3/4 hours, then have a feed & go back down. The last 3 nights it’s like he hates the cot! He’s waking up about 10 minutes after putting him down & is so restless he just keeps wakin...

Hi, does anyone know if there’s something that is more open and like a floor bed and easy to travel with for a 6 month old?

We are a co-sleeping family and we are currently away from home and our usual set up. I thought we’d be able to push the bed against the wall and I counted on us having a firm mattress. The bed we are is immovable and this is probably the softest mattress I’ve ever felt in my life (so I know I won’t get a wink of...

Hi girlsssss! I’d just like to know how old your little one was when they had their first sleepover with someone else! Either with your partner, parent or family member? I have no idea what’s appropriate and how baby will be? I’d love it if you shared your experience please😬

I was wondering whether you mama’s are changing nappies during the night feeds or have you stopped? One of my friends said that she had stopped and didn’t change unless he did a poo. I feel like it becomes very heavy and full quickly and worry it’ll leak but at the same time I don’t want to wake him fully during nig...

Anyone else’s baba doing this? Mine is still in his next to me due to lack of space in our house but looking to get a space saver for very soon! But despite not having a lot of space he still manages to roll over onto his front and falls asleep that way 🙈
