5 weeks old and over birth weight. Feeding well in day plenty of wet dirty nappies. Nobody ever told me to stop waking overnight, but friends have told me that they have been told to stop when over birth weight by midwives etc. I want to sleep longer lol but will do what’s best for baby

Future first time mama to a July baby! I have nursery furniture coming tomorrow and the crib we are getting also turns into a full sized bed. Since baby will be sleeping in our room in a different bedside crib for the first months of her life, should we use the full sized bed feature for the nursery in case one of u...

So I've had to move my boy (5 months old) into his cot tonight, he's outgrown both of his moses baskets, extremely cramped in them both and I don't co-sleep through the night due to my disability. I'm worried because he can roll back to front but not front to back, and he likes to just lie face down?. He has put h...

How often are we changing our babies diapers at night?

Any recommendations for pacifiers? My baby hates them all so far I tried : MAM Dr. brown nuk

My baby just started day care and won’t nap for longer than 45 minutes. At home he does 2 hours. Anyone else? And tips? He’s on a one nap schedule at home and at day care

Do you need to change diaper after every pee?

In the last 3 weeks my little boy wakes frequently throughout the night however he doesn’t fully wake up, I pop the dummy back in & generally goes back to sleep however it’s every 1-2 hours! It’s not every night, I put it down to teething but it can’t still be that 3 weeks on, just wondered if anyone else has experi...

FTM here, what are some signs of four monrh sleep regression you experienced. What helped you and your little one.

So recently I’ve asked for some help for a sleep trainer purely to let my baby become more confident in independent naps as she has only ever contact napped. They have given me a schedule to follow, saying my baby is sleeping too much through the day at 4 naps a day and needs to go down to 3 naps where one of them...

how many bottles is your 12 month old on through the night? trying to ween my LO off them but he’s still waking up multiple times. How did people manage once completely onto cows milk? as he’s just starting drinking this too ☺️ thank you

My boy is still on 2 naps, but needs to drop to one now. The only problem is that in the mornings, he is ready for his nap after 3.5 hours! He gets SO grumpy. Wakes at 8am. Nap at 11.30 - 12.30 (it's always 1 hour like clockwork!) Then bedtime at 7.30, meaning he will be awake for 7 hours! Is that okay? Is t...

What time does your 12 month old go to bed? Our little girl goes to bed at 8 because we eat together when my partner gets home, so we finish eating around 7 and then I like to leave an hour before bedtime just for food to go down. Is that too late?

I use about 3-4 nappies currently for my 11m old.

My little one is really struggling to go down for bedtime but once he is asleep we have no problems. Does anyone else have this problem?

I did sleep training when my LO was 5 months as she went through the 4 month regression for about 8 weeks. We managed to do so well and she was at a point where she would just put herself to sleep when we put her down for bedtime and naps. We then went away and since coming home it's like she's completely forgotten ...

We put the ipad on a little stool about half a meter away from her cot bed. She watches one movie on the lowest brightness and volume 1, and she very rarely makes it to the end of the movie before she’s fallen asleep. I still feel all manners of guilt that I’m being totally lazy and just sticking her in front of a s...

hi mamas! anyone else have a baby that does not fall asleep independently yet? i feel like there’s a lot of expectation around babies sleeping independently around or before this age (11 months) and my baby does not fall asleep without nursing to sleep or being rocked (unless in the car). i know every baby is diffe...

Does anyone else’s baby still do this? Where they stop breathing for like 3-5 seconds then breath again when asleep

What are your little ones bed time and how many hours do they sleep? For you 3-4 year olds
