Baby fights sleep

Some days my baby goes down so easy in minutes and some days he fights it. Whenever he fights it I feel terrible like I’m forcing him to sleep so I usually try a few mins and if he rubs against me and struggles I bring him back out to the living room to see if maybe he wasn’t ready for bed :( currently watching twister with me lol. I will try again in 30 mins. What does everyone else do?

Do y’all have a bedtime routine?

@Hali yes for the most part he goes down around 7pm. We’ve had some nights he goes down easy in less than 5 min and some days he fights it.

@Alejandra do yall do anything before just putting him down at all? Thats what helped me out a ton. Give him cues for bedtime and just try to not watch overstimulating shows. I realized I was doing that for a long time. Even if he isn’t watching I think the noises and lights can be too much also! You’re more than welcome to message me if you want! I struggled for around 6-7 months before finally getting a good bedtime routine down!
