any tips on getting a 2 month old in her own crib to sleep and not on mom or dad?
unfortunately we let her sleep on us with a boppy while we sleep in a recliner (so not ideal I know, don't judge!) cause she was a month early and so small.
I don't want the habit to continue forever so I'm looking for some advice and tips on how to help get her in her pack and play or crib at night...thanks mamas!
thanks everyone, we made it 35 min...that's a start right!? haha @reaganmommy2015 @bodaciousb6
@rachh40, warm bath, run down with lotion or oil, swaddle, and rocked to sleep helps my baby. if they can rol, then you shouldn't swaddle. but since their movements are super smooth yet, it's recommended so they dont wake the selves up. you can get sleeper sacks or armless swaddled if you're really scared, but if baby can't roll over, you're in the clear.
@rachh40, for the longest I would rock her to sleep and when she would be out move her to her crib
@reaganmommy2015, that makes me feel better...some mom's and some of my friends make it sound like it's so easy to get them to sleep on their own and that they just won't cry. well I won't let my kid just scream her head off in her crib. it's not as easy for some, as it is for others
Oh girl don't worry my youngest who just turned 1 she sleept in her rock and sleep till she was 5 months then I moved her to her crib
Yeah unfortunately she didn't from birth. sleeping on me she literally sleeps 6 hours at a time at night and only wakes up once to eat. we all get sleep and it's working. but I have this guilt in the back of my mind that I'm doing the wrong thing @breebunny
not sure but I hope whatever you try it works for you, mine slept in bassinet and crib from birth
did he ever try to roll on his side or anything? I'm worried about her not being able to move if she gets in a bad position swaddled...I know I prob sound crazy or whatever but first time mom, I worry about everything unfortunately @edomke
Need parenting tips. So my daughter will be 1 on the 20th and she still wants her bottles warm how do I get her to take a bottle that’s not warmed because once she is 1 she will be drinking soy milk. Also for 10 months she was sleeping in her crib all throughout the night and now the last month since she got sick last month she absolutely refuses to sleep in her crib and will only sleep in my bed 😖 how do I go about getting her to sleep back in her crib? Her crib is currently in my room should I...
Co sleeping...yay or nay? Lately Molly hasn't want to sleep in her crib and sleep with us. Which is fine but we do want her to sleep in her crib
omg... I'm so depressed my child cries more than she doesnt..The only time she's not crying is when she's alsleep.. but she only sleeps 30 minutes each time. she won't sit in her carseat, her crib, pack n play , her swing, bouncer nothing!!! I have to hold ger 24/7 even when she's sleeping or else she will wake up. I'm tired I don't get any sleep nothing soothes her I don't even remember the last time I had enough time to bathe :'( I love her so much but this is so challenging
need suggestions....
So at work we have a drink thief. Any time we put a drink in the fridge it disappears. I swear I know who it is. So far he's taken drinks from everyone that works in the office, we even put a sign to not take anything you didn't pay for and wrote our names on the drinks. The person I think is taking them works out of the office so we never get to see who is drinking them.
so I have been debating on wether were gonna buy a crib. we have a bassinet that baby will sleep in along with sleeping with us at times. what are you mommies doing? crib, bassinet, pack and play, or a combination of these? I don't wanna spend money on a crib if the babg isn't even gonna be sleeping in it for a while
@rachh40, yes it's a start try a shirt 👚 that you have been wearing all day put that in the crib with the baby 👶
