I've recently been picking my LO up from his cot for his night feed and cuddling him to sleep in my bed/ Co sleeping. Today I've tried to put him down for a nap in his cot 6x and each time he's woken up within 5 mins. I then got in my bed and cuddled him to sleep and he slept until I put him back in his cot and he w...

My baby sleeps well over the night, she normally gets about 10-12 hours with short wakes for feeds. But when it comes to sleep during the day, it seems like she can't fall asleep for longer than 30 mins.. not always, she sometimes sleeps beautifully, but most of the times, she would literally take a short power nap ...

Any advice on sleep training routines? My LO has just turned 1 and gone from being no problems at all to now taking 3 hours to go to sleep and then awake screaming and not settling during the night I know there is a 12 month sleep regression too but me and his dad are at our wits end 😓😓

How many bottles are we all giving our babies through the night? My little girl is teething but has had me up every hour the past week and has been drinking 3 bottles during the night 🤯 I’m giving her 2 meals a day also. Just curious! She has never slept through the night either

Is there an 11 month regression? When my daughter turned 10 months we experienced 1-2 weeks of disturbed sleep, lots of crying and refusing to nap.. we finally got into a routine again with sleep and naps and the past three nights we’ve really struggled with her sleep again. She’s been waking up at midnight / 1am ev...

Does anything else have a fomo baby? My little boy will not sleep if we out unless in the car or on a dog walk?! We were at our friends yesterday and he didn't nap for nearly 5 hours until we left and got in the car. The other 3 babies same age - all just fell asleep in their parents arms. Anyone have any tips?...

Hey. Our 1 year old has been sleeping in our bed with us for months and now we are trying to get him in his cot. Does anyone have any suggestions that doesn’t involve leaving them to cry as not sure I can do that!! Thanks in advance

During the day I’m really struggling to get my little boy to sleep he has nothing but tiny 20 minute naps and hardly any of them at all I’m at an absolute loss there’s just so much crying because of this has anyone got any advice 😩

Kind of a long post so if you read it all and respond thank you 😩 so I want to know people opinions on this…. Bit of back ground, I’m a single mum living at my parents, trying to get my own place but council are cr*p! also I dont move in the night so don’t come at me for Co-sleeping! Ok so my LG is breast fed…

Im currently doing some reading into wake windows as I’ll be honest, up until now I’ve been fully winging this! But sleep has become a big problem so I’m trying to get a bit of a schedule together. I’ve read that ideally I should be aiming for 2.5-3.5 hours of sleep during the day across either 3/4 naps, but my litt...

Hi ladies So my 11 week old baby has started going down to bed at like 9.30pm-10pm and then doesn't wake up till 5am. He is exclusively breastfed, he is piling the weight on and weights nearly 13lb so he is doing really well. He feeds alot throughout the day but im just worried that maybe I should be waking him to ...

Is anyone still doing shifts with their partner or has anyone moved away from it?! Any tips/thoughts/experiences? My husband still has our 9 week old baby downstairs from around 9-12 every night so I can sleep. He has a bottle during that chunk but is otherwise breastfed. Baby’s sleep isn’t great so this is the onl...

I’ve seen a lot of people saying their baby wakes up at 7am. My LO wakes up between 8:30-9am. I feel very grateful that I get to sleep in that long but I’m thinking I should probably set an alarm to wake up earlier to prepare for nursery in the new year. Also struggling to get all bottles done throughout the day as ...

How is everyone currently putting their little ones to sleep? I’m feeling so overwhelmed with what is safe. Our little girl was great in the next to me the first night but wouldn’t go down in it the next so we switched to the Moses basket with a cellular blanket right at the bottom (feet to bed of course) but I’ve g...

My LG is 9 weeks old and has developed a preference for lying on one side. I've noticed she's starting to get a slightly misshapen head as a result although friends and family have said they wouldn't notice unless id pointed it out. I'm worried about it getting worse / not going away as she gets older. Does anyone h...

My LO doesn’t have a bedtime routine per se.. usually falls asleep cuddled up to me on the sofa and we carry him to bed and put him in his cot but lately he wakes up screaming when we carry him up and won’t settled back down.

Baby has nearly grown out of Moses basket , I’ve got a next to me crib but it is to big. I got very little space what is best cot or cribs for small spaces ?

Just wondered if any EBF babies sleep well at night? Any tricks?

My little girl has always been a rubbish sleeper...... but got to a comfortable point for a couple of weeks, she was waking every 3 hours which was amazing for her. But now she's waking every 40-60 minutes.... and has been for a week and a half. I'm exhausted, anyone else going through similar? She'll just scream un...

My LO screams the house down when he is trying to sleep, is that normal or is there an underlying issue I should look into?
