Any advice ladies. My little boy has been sleeping through since around 8 weeks he's now 14 weeks and putting him to bed is turning into a nightmare! It's taking a good half hour to put him down back and fourth once he's asleep he's asleep and out till 8am/9. Any ideas what I could do??
Sleep associations.. I've created some bad sleep associations like nursing him until he's fallen asleep or rocking him until he's completely asleep and then putting him down and I can't do that anymore. It's getting so much harder to rock him to sleep because he's getting bigger and I have a bad back. I honestly don't know how to get him to fall asleep on his own :( do you ladies have any advice ?
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. ?
they say you can't spoil an infant is that true because my lo is 7 weeks and he doesn't like being put down and can only fall asleep in my arms to be put to bed. plus he's so fussy lately. he's also going through a growth spurt at the moment I'm sure of that now. that's not too say I can't put him down without him fussing he can sit for a good 20 minutes without wanting to be held but that's it.
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.
Fussy baby My baby will not let me put him down anywhere when he's awake. He hates the swing and bouncer and won't take a pacifier.. And when I'm holding him he's so squirmy and constantly whimpers and I have no idea what to do with him.. Any ideas ?

It's common for babies to go through phases of being unsettled or waking. I'd continue with your normal routine & I guess it's what your happy with doing. Once I lay Max down I sit by his crib for a while if he's unsettled. After a minute or 2 I lay my hand on his tummy & say goodnight then walk away. I repeat this until he settles. Trying to leave him a little longer each time.
