Is anyone else finding it increasingly difficult to get back to sleep after baby has had their night feed? Mine woke at 1.30am and I haven’t been able to get back to sleep since. He’s woken up again for his second night feed now which means I’ve had about two hours sleep 🥺 I’m not sure how to tackle this x

Can anyone help! I keep waking up at around 4am the past week or so. I’m 20 weeks pregnant and already struggling with lower back pain. I have a bad back and hips anyway and I’m usually a back sleeper so the sleeping on my side can be an issue. I use a butterfly type pillow & that’s comfortable for me most of the ti...

my 4 almost 5 week old absolutely hates her bassinet, the “mattress” has flattened after washing it and so she’s just laying on a board.

Looking for some advice that this gets better. My 2yr8month old has been using a dummy only for sleep at night since he was around 1½. He doesn't use it during the day. Lately he has been having absolutely unacceptable tantrums... I have been managing that to a point because I expected it at this age. However he's s...

My baby girl is 14 weeks and she drinks 6oz every 4 hours during the day. Is this okay? When it comes to night feeds, do I wake her up for a bottle? For example, tonight she had a bottle at 22:20 and she’ll probably sleep through until 5-6. Do I let her sleep or do i wake her at 2am for a bottle?

Im pregnant and have a 2 year old who does not sleep at all. My husband works overnight: 50+ hours a week. I have no friends or family to help me.

I absolutely hate our situation right now because she gets the most perfect sleep at the weekend and naps well and everything... and then she goes back to nursery 😭 Tonight she's only getting 7 hours sleep because she got woken up and wouldn't go back to sleep, last week it was 9 every day... but at the weekend…

Sorry in advance this is a long one, but I’m sure others can relate and ANY advice is appreciated ⭐️🤍🥺💕 Since born, my 8 month old has been a really good sleeper throughout the night. For the past month, she has been wakening up continuously through the night SCREAMING crying. When I go through to comfort her…

Would you take Ambien (5 mg) if prescribed during your third trimester if you had severe insomnia?

Is anyone else’s two and a half year olds refusing naps? It’s been a struggle for a few weeks now and it’s a battle I don’t think I can keep fighting.
