Bedtime has become a nightmare…

Anyone else’s bedtime just become so terrible since their child turned 1. Like she does great at bath time, but as soon as I lay her down to put on a diaper it’s terrible. Piercing cries for 15-20 minutes. We co-sleep, so it’s not like I’m leaving her. And she nurses before bed, sometimes to sleep, sometimes not. Lately, she’s been nursing like less than 1 minute on each boob for like 5 minutes and it’s so annoying. She’s also been waking twice in the middle of the night like she was when she was small… she’ll nurse, but I’m almost positive that’s for comfort as I’ve taken her pacifier away. Anyone else? Might this be a 12 month regression????

I switched to one nap. Fixed it for us

this could either be ur sign to sleep train or switch to milk.. i am not an expert tho and idk ur baby, just giving u ideas 💕

@Ella she barely naps, so combined, the short naps she takes on the car ride to and from daycare and the 20 minutes she POSSIBLY takes— it’s probably an hour MAYBE 2 total of a “nap”

@rissa I’ve given her milk and she doesn’t drink much. So I am still nursing so that she can get all the nutrients she needs. I’m not sure if I have the energy to even sleep train or first learn how to sleep train.

We're going through a regression. It started last week and he just turned 1 yesterday. We also cosleep and this is the first regression baby had really gone through. When it's time to lay down and nurse, he might latch for a bit but then he will unlatch and start rolling around and be all energized. I usually just lay on the bed and give him time to get his energy out before I try nursing him to sleep again. If we try to rock him or just hold him, he is screaming until we put him back down on the bed. And now he is waking really early in the morning which he's never done. But luckily with that wake up, he will just lay with me until he goes back to sleep. I'm just hoping he'll get back to his previous schedule soon.

Same here to the title because I’m not sure what else I can do… we do 2 naps a day but when I cut down he is awake at 1 am all the way to 5 super annoying

Yep my baby will be one at the end of the month and what has worked for me is using the Huckleberry app. It suggests sleep times for naps and bedtime. She hasn’t fought sleep since I’ve started using their suggestions! Fingers crossed it stays this way for awhile 😅
