Tried putting little man down 4 times so far tonight with screaming each time 😔 I hope this doesn't become a habit. He sleeps so well in the day, why is night so much worse?
People will tell you that you're spoiling them, they're only a few weeks new into this world, you're helping them adjust and learn what it's like, you're showing them comfort & love and you do it until you're content to change it :) @carlyanaya
I cuddled to my hearts content haha, i held and napped with him a lot, until around 3 months ish then I started to not pick him up at his every coo and Becker,
If I knew he was genuinely clean, fed and burped I would let him grizzle away (never screamed)
@steph194, definitely! It makes it much easier. I feel like at the moment buns wants to be held a lot.. And is getting more partial to it than his bassinet.. Not sure if I'm doing the right thing by giving in every time. Did you go through that?
Brace yourself, the first few leaps are tough, I would get frustrated but then realise that poor Bub was just trying to figure out the world around him. It is great to expect what you're gearing up for though.
@steph194, looks like I'm just about to enter a storm ... 😐 grear
@steph194, great thanks heaps! Hopefully it gives me some peace of mind lol
I done it from the day he was born :) and it was spot on with everything haha, Eli was due on the 14th but came in the 5th so I put the 5th on.
@steph194, so u put Remmers due date in but now in the leaps it comes up that he is 2 weeks old. Should I change the due date to when he was born or leave it as is? :/
It explains babies growth or 'leap' periods & what cues to look for and gives you insight into a lot of things that's happening with Bub.
Ladies,
If you haven't downloaded the 'wonder weeks' app, I highly recommend it!! It was a life saver for my first born.
@anthea22, oh okay well I'm breastfeeding and he does gulp air while he feeds.. He gets wind for ages but then sometimes he will pass out without burping but he squirms and clenches his fists like he's in pain so I try to burp him for ages. I had a shocking night when I ate dark chocolate so I'm not having that again and also cutting out dairy to see if that's an issue. I'm not sure.. Maybe it's growing pains? Digestion might be slow at those times? :/
I've changed his formula as it was making him constipated. But I think this one is doing the same thing 😑 what do you think is causing your problems Hun @carlyanaya ?
@anthea22, why is that? 😓 and I'm noticing it's the same times each night, at 9pm he just won't go down and seems to have bad wind and then 2.30 he is awake for 2 hours screaming again. Driving me crazy!
My little guy didn't go down till 3am. 😑 and awake at 5am. I was thinking the exact same thing, through the day he's perfect, come night time he's turned into a monster.
Time goes by so fast when you sleep holy shit
This morning sickness is so bad this time 😭



There was once a time when I had a lot of time to myself lol
So I crocheted. I kinda miss it 🤷🏻♀️
Scariest situation you've been in??
I'm bored and can't sleep for s***. So story time?
@steph194, yep agreed, thanks love
