Anyone else’s lo still getting a bottle before bed? My lo takes 1.5 -3 hours to put down at night & I feel if we took the bottle away it would be even a bigger disaster lol

Does anyone else's child wake up crying their eyes out about 1 hour after falling asleep at night??? And I mean he stirs and changes position like they do when they shift between sleep cycles, then starts absolutely wailing as if he's completely distraught about something. Sometimes I'm not even sure if he fully wak...

I think my son might be ready to drop his nap. His sleep this week has been awful, and it's never been great to begin with. He's always gone to bed at 8pm and has been tired on the run up but this week it's been difficult to get him down before 10pm at the earliest, the other night he was awake til midnight and anot...

Anyone else's babe cry for long periods at night? Around the same time my baby cries about 7pm every night without fail. I've tried everything and although she does have gut issues, in my heart I don't think that's what is upsetting her. She's absolutely fine all day until bed time then cries for a few hours until s...

Anyone else's baby have a false start every single night? My little boy has at least one and sometimes 3 false starts over 2 hours before he finally goes down for the night. We've tried changing bedtime and wake windows both ways and it hasn't helped

What is the big deal with sleep training?? I see posts about mums being desperate but refuse to do sleep training. This is by no means a dig im just thinking I’ve missed something.

How and when did everyone transition baby from arms in to arms out when swaddling at night time? Thanks!

Is it killing anyone else?! My boy is now waking at 4/5am every morning & currently wide awake when normal bedtime is usually 7pm. We had cracked his sleep for about a month of sleeping through… now this! I need to know it ends!

My baby is finding it harder and harder to stay asleep in his next to me once transferred. I’m ending up having to sleep with him on my chest which is quite anxiety inducing so not getting a great sleep myself. How do I fix this so he sleeps in next to me? He’ll be 2 months on Wednesday. He’s 8.5 weeks currently

How did everyone cope with moving their baby to their own room? It’s our first night of moving her to her own room and I have been a mess 😂 I know it will be good for her but to me she’s still my little baby

I’m struggling a bit with social media getting the better of me. I quite like not sticking to a strict one with set times etc. We are getting up when we like which is normally between 8-10 and then starting the day and then just napping at the recommended times from huckleberry’s sweet spots and she goes to bed abou...

My son has been rocked to sleep (or some sort of movement) pretty much since birth and it works for us. He sleeps 12 hours overnight and has 2 naps. Rocking him to sleep literally takes under 3 minutes. He started going to nursery 2 days a week and his nursery room leader has said they don’t rock kids to sleep, ins...

For those who co-sleep with their babies from the start, when did you move them to their own room without much of a problem? My girl will be 2 years old in June this year and I am planning to put her in own room on bed. She sleeps okay till 12-1 in the night but I need to sleep with her later as she keeps waking u...

Anyone else experiencing massive regressions in night time sleep at the moment? Little one is a week off 10 months and for the past good few weeks night time sleep is an absolute nightmare! He’s never been the best sleeper but always slept in his cot maybe with 1 wake up through the night. He will wake shortly aft...

Anyone else dealing with the terrible twos? We have multiple meltdowns a day. Every day. And bedtime is an absolute shit show. She doesn’t want her nappy changed. Doesn’t want to get dressed. Doesn’t want to get undressed. Doesn’t want to get in the car. Wants to get herself dressed but then refuses to do it. Asks t...

So for background. My daughter will be 10 months this week. From 10 weeks old she has slept through in her own bedroom. The past four nights, once she is placed into her cot for bedtime she cries. Well as soon as she goes into the room, it’s like she knows and starts crying. I’ve done the whole putting her back do...

My EBF baby wakes every hour from bedtime onwards. But last night he decided to wake at 4am, blowing raspberries while nursing. This continued for 45 minutes! I was torn between being frustrated cos I was tired and laughing out loud. Anyone else’s baby doing this?

My LB goes nuts during nappy changes. Usually cries and tries to roll over.. it’s been 10 months I thought he would understand nappy change time now? Is this normal at this age? Anyone have any tips? I usually do try to give him something in his hands, doesn’t always work. Eventually I want him to understand nappy c...

My son is 17 months and has never slept well. I co sleep with him and he wakes up every hour or two. I can’t leave his side all night even to go to the bathroom. I have to take him with me if I need to go, literally. I can’t even change or wash my face before bed. He wakes up at 5:30am. He has a nighttime routine an...
