I am getting so beyond frustrated. My daughter is 6 months on the 20th and she only sleeps for 40-90 minutes at a time. She's exclusively breastfed and she's definitely getting enough, no I can't pump, she eats food before bed, but it doesn't help at all. I'm the only one that gets up with her too. I love being a mom, but I'm dying for a some sleep and my mind and mood really starting to be affected by the lack of sleep. 😭😭😭
Didn't** sorry was talking at the same time to someone else and typed the wrong word
@andrewsmommy, I looked them up and she actually put herself into this schedule months ago.
Welcome. let me if they work. I plan on starting my new one on a schedule when shes born too.
Maybe try a new one. One for her age. If you search Schedules For 6 montb baby on google image alot of samples pop up. I use an 11 month one and it works wonders. Actually had him sleep through the whole night last night for the 1st time. Hope he does it again tonight.
@chelseaepley, I do sometimes but our bed is so small for all three of us that it kills my back. @concrete @andrewsmommy we've had a schedule for months but it doesn't help.
have you tried co sleeping? so you can just sleep topless and baby can latch when she wants to?
@andrewsmommy is right. babies love schedules. try creating a schedule. don't give him many naps, wear him out before bed time.
Well I was going to recommend the cereal at night time because it does help but my son went through the same thing. He wouldn't sleep for more than 20 minutes for his naps. I got him on a schedule and now he sleeps almost 2 hours for his naps. Bedtime he still doesn't fully sleep but he gets up once
I wi t give her any kind of cereal bc it stops her up @zealous @andrewsmommy doesn't matter. She only sleeps 40-90 minutes. Nap time or bedtime.
yoo i know what u mean my son is only 2 months and the most he would sleep for is 2 hrs n be up 8 hrs right after im so tired maybe u should try porridge i heard it does wonders
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
TWW!!
2dpo and on the tww journey. Anyone on the same dpo or close? Haven't decided if I will test at 12dpo or just wait and see if she shows up!!
Transgender children
So I just learned that in my kids school district (my kids aren't in school yet my oldest will be starting kindergarten next September) there are twin boys who identify as girls. They are 5 years old. What's your opinions on this matter given they are 5!!! I don't believe that at that age they really understand the whole thing. So the entire school had to take a course on how to handle transgender children. For example they can't say girls go this or boys do that. What are...
Science!
My friend posted this on facebook last night and said her kids were asleep within minutes. It's a song that scientists created to help people fall asleep. I was skeptical but I thought what the hay, I'll try it out. I didn't bank on Dh falling asleep, but both him and lo were asleep by minute 2. And lo slept six straight hours. ?
Starting TWW. Anyone else?
I had a stillborn daughter at 38 weeks this passed Nov. This is my second month ttc. (Last month we only tried for like two weeks though). My last and only pregnancy, I got pregnant the first month of ttc so I hope it's quick this time again.
