My LO has finally started sleeping longer stretches at night 🙏🏽 however I’ve noticed in the morning his nappy is so wet! He wakes twice to be fed approx 0200 and 05.00, I change his nappy both times. I know it’s crazy but now I’m thinking should I wake him to change his nappy? I just feel so bad in the morning when…

I am so exhausted writing this and my toddler is currently awake next to me with no sleep in sight at 1:30am. His sleep used to be pretty good up until a month or 2 ago. If he took an afternoon nap, he was up til 10:30 pm so we started doing no naps or short naps but then it was 6pm bedtimes with middle of the night...

I was just sleep deprived. So glad I didn’t get on any pills! We decided I should to do a week of super intentional sleeping. Husband worked so hard to keep the house clean, manage our toddler, and force me to bed early every night. It was literally like POOF depression was gone after feeling down for over a MONTH ...

Anyone else's baby fight naps so bad? It's honestly driving me crazy now 😔. She can go from 6am until 7pm on like 1 hours worth of sleep, crazy!

Anyone else’s little one keep spitting or dropping their dummy’s at night? My daughter will be three months on Saturday and used to just go in her next to me and fall asleep but since her second set of jabs it’s a nightmare to settle her. Two nights ago I had to put her dummy back in 74 times and she was up every ho...

Moved LO onto cows milk at night as well as morning bottle But she seems to be waking in the night now for a bottle as well. Never really did before. Not sure if we’ve moved her night bottle over too soon? She eats loads during day and a meal with fruit and pudding at 5/5.30pm Then cows milk bottle at 6.30/7pm. Do...

I am usually a back sleeper but I didn’t realise until now how dominantly. Sleeping on my side and occasionally waking up panicked because I’m on my back. It has also triggered a really bad back where I’m now walking round like a grandma and unable to bend down etc without extreme pain. Am I alone?

Those whose little ones naps around 11:30/12 - do you give lunch before or after the nap?

Hey all, Hope your all having a lovely morning so far! I am just wondering has anyone introduced a blanket and pillow into the babies cot yet? I know it’s not recommended in the UK until baby is 12months. But i was curious if anyone has..

After months of traumatic nappy changes, for me & LO 🤣, I think we finally have a hack i thought I’d share. We get LO’s nappy caddy down on the floor and ask him ‘what do we need then’. ‘Can I have a nappy’ ‘can I have a bag’ ‘can i have the wipes’ ‘and now the cream, you hold on to that’. So he holds on to the…

How does everyone else keep their toddlers warm at night during these cold nights? He’s in a toddler bed so no longer can use a sleeping bag. He has a duvet but seems to kick it off a lot and our room gets to 16 degrees overnight. TIA

We went away for 2 nights in a hotel and it was the best nights sleep LO has had. Slept until 4:30 bottle then back to sleep until 8am. Two things that supported this I believe where she didn't have 2 dogs disturbing her as they sleep in bedroom with us and she had loads of room in travel cot. We got home yesterday...

We’re a week in, baby girl is a good enough sleeper but I am just so physically exhausted. When is the light at the end of the tunnel 😅

My daughter has just discovered how to sit herself up - she has been sitting up for ages but I mean getting herself from laying to sitting! Since this discovery, it’s really affecting naps/bedtime as she just wants to keep doing it.. and then usually has slept through but wakes a few times and gets herself into th...

my baby is 5 weeks and EBF. at night he sleeps ok in the first half of the night but every night 3am onwards he just doesn’t settle. i’m always then awake from 3am but stay in bed with him till about 8am so he knows it’s still nighttime i’m exhausted. i breast feed at 3am but does anyone think he’ll possible get ba...

Our 21 month old has been refusing to sleep in her crib / her own room. So we've started co-sleeping which is fine in the short term but it means she's getting less sleep at night and we have no time in the evenings anymore. Anyone have tips for getting LO back in their room?

Hello, my baby used to sleep until 6:30-7:30am and has 2 naps of around 2h in total. This week he has been fighting his first nap, I managed to put him to sleep but with some crying or complaining first. He has also been waking up at 5am in the morning. Can it be a sleep regression or maybe it is time to drop a nap?...

My baby does not take good naps in the day time at all he’s 5 months and he’ll stay up all day with like a 10 minute nap one time it’s very rare for him to even nap for an hour throughout the day but at night he sleeps 10pm to 11am?

How am I supposed to reduce my 6month olds naps when she's waking at 5am and not going back to sleep. She's still on 4 naps and only naps for half an hour still. I'm literally at my wits end. I feel like she's now broken into a new sleep regression, waking multiple times a night again. Then when 5am hits she's r...

I don't know what to do. My 14 month old refuses to go to sleep without her sippy. She gets cows milk, but I know she can't have it after brushing teeth. She refuses to drink plain water, and juice has to much sugar in it.
