Community Posts, Tips & Support on Baby Sleep

Hi all! For those that are on one nap, what time do you tend to put your lo’s down for it? Or what does your typical day look like it, timing wise. My lo is transitioning from two to one but doesn’t sleep for very long. When he was on two naps he’d sleep for about 90 mins across the two naps. Since being on one na...

For the last 7 months I haven’t slept any longer than 3 or 4 hours (since my son was born) my son doesn’t sleep and when he does for around an hour at a time even at night, since 4 months his bed time has been at 7pm (he put himself in that routine) then wakes up every hour on the hour then refuses to go back down a...

My baby is 8 weeks old and he always pees loads usually. I’m talking as soon as we put a nappy on the line goes blue😂 He’s had a dry nappy for over an hour now and I’m worried because it’s so out of the ordinary for him. Everywhere online says not to be concerned until nappy has been dry for 6 hours ???

Baby will be 8 months next week and is really rolly during the day, front to back and back to front. Tonight for the first time when falling asleep she has rolled onto her front. I'm so nervous, she's never done this before and she seems comfortable enough and obviously I know she can roll perfectly fine during ...

I feel bad that I haven't got her to nap in her cot yet Also, won't sleep in there at night

Please tell me this is just a ‘phase’…. My 6month old baby boy has decided he now hates his cot. He used to go down fine for a good 3/4 hours, then have a feed & go back down. The last 3 nights it’s like he hates the cot! He’s waking up about 10 minutes after putting him down & is so restless he just keeps wakin...

Hi, does anyone know if there’s something that is more open and like a floor bed and easy to travel with for a 6 month old?

We are a co-sleeping family and we are currently away from home and our usual set up. I thought we’d be able to push the bed against the wall and I counted on us having a firm mattress. The bed we are is immovable and this is probably the softest mattress I’ve ever felt in my life (so I know I won’t get a wink of...

Hi girlsssss! I’d just like to know how old your little one was when they had their first sleepover with someone else! Either with your partner, parent or family member? I have no idea what’s appropriate and how baby will be? I’d love it if you shared your experience please😬

I was wondering whether you mama’s are changing nappies during the night feeds or have you stopped? One of my friends said that she had stopped and didn’t change unless he did a poo. I feel like it becomes very heavy and full quickly and worry it’ll leak but at the same time I don’t want to wake him fully during nig...

Anyone else’s baba doing this? Mine is still in his next to me due to lack of space in our house but looking to get a space saver for very soon! But despite not having a lot of space he still manages to roll over onto his front and falls asleep that way 🙈

I have contact napped my baby since the day he was born. He sleeps in his crib at night amazingly but will not during the day. Did I spoil him? Is that possible?

Any words of wisdom for how to get their baby to sleep in their Moses basket? Mine will not sleep unless in my arms or on my chest 🥴 had to co-sleep last night just to get more than an hour! Any help or advice would be great!

I EBF my 4 month old but have slow weight gain, and have been told to try and get another feed in (even though she’s pretty happy 🤷🏻‍♀️). At the moment we have 7 feeds a day, 5 ‘eat play sleep’ during the day every 3-ish hrs, a dream feed at 10pm ish and one (occasionally two, but rarely) over night that she wakes…

What are we doing during wake windows? I feel like we’re always just kicking around on his activity mat or fisher price piano mat. Anything else I can do with a 9 week old?

For naps my little boy takes at most 20 minutes but for about 3 weeks now it’s been taking him 45 mins-1.5hrs to get to sleep at night time. We have even pushed his bedtime back 30 mins as he just wasn’t sleepy previously but hasn’t made a difference really.

My LO seems really off the past few days. He doesn't want to lay down and play at all, he just wants to be held and walked around the house all day otherwise he screams. He's also sleeping A LOT, by the time he wakes up hes crying and wanting to go back to nap again. He's gone from having 3.5hr nap days to 5hr nap ...

My baby is really having trouble with sleeping recently. We switched from the Snoo to a regular bassinet and we are working on weaning him off of the swaddle because he’s rolling. Plus sleep regression. There’s a lot going on. So in my mind, sleep troubles are to be expected rn. But MIL and SIL have mentioned that t...

My son had been napping perfectly since 6 months (he is almost 13 months). Normally we change his diaper, get him a bottle and lay him down in his nursery with the blinds closed and his sound machine. Today the second he saw we were going into his room he screamed and threw his head back. He refused his bottle. I tr...

What is everyone doing with their toddler when they put baby down for a nap? I feel like I’m either constantly shushing my toddler or leaving them in the other room while I put baby to sleep. Sometimes it takes me 15 minutes sometimes 30-45 depending on if I’m feeding too. It’s just too long to stay away from my 3 y...
