Anyone else’s baby insist on sleeping like this? 😂🤦🏻‍♀️ I put him in his next to me feet to bottom in the centre every night and every time I wake up, he’s like this. Constantly have to keep moving him back!

Just curious what other September babies are doing. How much food & milk does your babies have? & what is their nap/night sleep like? I feel like my baby eats so much in the day but still wakes up for a feed in the night and then up for the day at 5am 🙃 Looking for suggestions/anything I can do differently?

My little boy has never been a good sleeper. He's 18 months old and had silent reflux as a baby and is dairy intolerant. Solid bedtime routine. Follow wake windows or tired cues.

I don’t need him to be sleeping in ti...

Any tips and tricks to get rid of a dummy. My little boy turned 2 on Monday and I’ve said all along this would be the day we stop.

My baby is waking every 2hrs and will only get back to sleep if I pick him up. I've tried settling him by not picking him up and putting my hand on him but he just screams and screams. How did you do it and how long did it take you? Thank you

Is anyone else going through a sleep regression right now? It could definitely be worse but getting me up 2/3 times a night and this time last week she would sleep 9pm-9am so it’s killing me😂 I shouldn’t have gotten used to it!

My 3mo baby was sleeping straight through the night till around 7 and now we’ve started putting him down in his own room till 11 then bringing him next to me for the rest of the night he’s waking up at my around 4am. Everyone warned me hitting 3 months it would get challenging. Is this common? Tips on not letting th...

Even though my baby is in the crib next to me, I have a monitor as it has night vision and it's easier to just open my eyes and look instead of getting up to check on him all the time 🙈 Anyway, I just glanced at the monitor and saw he was gone 😱 completely freaked out, jumped out of bed and saw he'd turned himself…

When did you start helping your baby learn to sleep on their own? What approach did you use, and how long did it take before they were fully sleeping independently? My daughter usually falls asleep while breastfeeding, so I’m not always able to practice sleep training consistently every night. Thanks for any tips! 💕

Baby girl sleeps very well during the day and goes longer stints without milk. Any tips on how to mirror this in the night? We have tried the exact same stuff! Thank you ☺️

Anyone else having difficulty weaning off bottle &/or pacifier? My 20 month old is VERY emotionally attached to both so our pediatrician said omit the bottle first.
