Struggling with sleep
Show your support
My little girl was born June 25th (June baby not July baby) but I am exactly in the same boat! She has been awful for the last 3 months. I honestly just don’t know what to do anymore!!!
The second wake window is too long so they’re probably over tired. It should be 5 hrs max so can you try doing the nap a bit later? My boy naps 12-1:30/2pm and goes to sleep at 6:30/7pm
My LG is an August 23 baby and we have been in the same bout since 10 months, she use to sleep through. She’s so recently started asking for milk 2/3 times a night which she hasn’t done since 6 months 🤷🏻♀️ Im thinking the second wake window is too long for my LG too it’s about 6 hours currently but she gets so tired in the morning @Sophie what is your days schedule like please?
@Rebekah it’s really hard isn’t it, I thought the sleep deprivation days would be long gone by now!
@Sophie do you think so? The problem we’ve had before is if she sleeps past 1:30 she’s a nightmare to go to bed at night. So it makes it really hard! x
I’m in the same boat…full time teacher, up for the day at 5:30, but my little one consistently wakes up at least twice per night, sometimes 3 or 4 times. We nurse to sleep starting around 7:30 and she’s down around 9, but will wake up in the night and cry until I come and nurse her to sleep again. I’ve tried letting her wait it out and she’s only put herself back to sleep a handful of times. I can probably count on one hand how many times she’s slept through the night in her life, most of those actually when we’re on vacation oddly enough. Hubby says he wants to help at night, but he’s a heavy sleeper so it’s more effort to wake him up than it is for me to just get her back to sleep myself. But I feel you, I am so drained bc I don’t have a second of time off, day or night.
