How am i suppose to cope with two that don’t sleep
I have a 13 month old and i’m 6 months pregnant. My one year old has never been a good sleeper , always co slept and never slept through.
I’ve tried bed training him multiple times, again tonight. Currently 2.40am and he’s only just fell sleep as i picked him up. I’ve tried every method, i let him cry, i comfort him, i leave him for a few mins, i pick up and put down. NOTHING works. He simply will not settle if he’s not held, and the second i put him in his own bed he wakes up and screams.
I am at a loss. It’s to the point i don’t want this second baby. How the hell am i suppose to deal with them both? how am i suppose to co sleep post c section? how am i supposed to navigate Both babies waking up at night and needing something at the same time? i am a single mum, i can’t just offload one to my partner and look after the other 😭
I am seriously regretting my decisions. Please someone say that have been in this situation 😭

I was in your situation this time last year! A lot can change in a short space of time! In march my 1 year old didn’t sleep at all, by the time the baby was born in June he was sleeping through! I did no sleep training with him, something just changed as he got older! He regressed slightly the first week we brought the baby home but other than that he went back to sleeping well again! If he ever wakes overnight (unwell, teething etc) now I just bring him into bed with me and he settles to sleep straight away and also sleeps through his brother waking up (who has taken his place as the worlds worst sleeper haha)

I am in the same situation! My little boys two, will not sleep unless I’m next to him, everytime I escape his bed he wakes up wish I was joking. He wakes up in the night on a good day, twice At least. I am not a single parents but unfortunate I do everything so I “solo parent” So I 100% get where you are coming with the worry on the next bubba and sleep, I’m not going to lie I’m stressed about it too. I’m here if you want to talk ccc
