baby always cry before falling asleep and still always cry every time he stirs at night
Show your support
How do you put him to sleep for naps and nighttime? Do you soothe him, help him fall asleep with cuddles, soft talk etc? My girls still need me to be in the room and I have to pat their bums otherwise they’ll scream and won’t go down. When they wake up at night they also cry- I’m afraid it’s normal they just want us there be there with them 🫶🏼
@Lauren he doesnt eat well unfortunately 😭
@Evelina I still hold him in my arms and rock him to sleep while singing 😭
Sounds like you're having a rough time with what is fairly standard (but difficult!) baby behaviour. It's why I've chosen to cosleep and always breastfeed to sleep when she wants to even if it's demanding on my body. We've evolved for our baby crying to hit our nervous systems. I think what you need is more support and a bit of a break, if you have a partner or family/friends who can do a nap or bedtime here and there. Or extra help in other things if sleep does always have to be you.
I’d say he needs his own room his own cot good solid meal before bed make sure he’s full up should be onto full fat milk at night warm and a bottle of juice in there for the middle of the night juice on nap times playful bath before bed he will be knocked out stick to same routine mines coming up to 15 months and sleeps through from half 6-half 6 it gets easier trust me
