First night home from hospital last night with My baby boy.. was very overwhelming.. and I've got the baby blues π he wouldn't settle in his Moses basket at all I tried continuously for 3 & half hours he was not giving in but as soon as I put him on my chest he was out for count.. slept 5 hours straight ( I didn't as I'm paranoid & still in pain from c section. Luckily my mother is off work and has come to my house to look after him for a few hours so i can catch up on lost sleep!! How long did it take for everyone's little ones to settle into home & the new surroundings??
I found that Evelyn would only settle on me at that age until my brother bought her a swaddle blanket and it was a life saver x
@lucxo does you have a bouncer or swing? I found my daughter was happy in there
Probably 3 or 4 days & Max started to settle in his crib better. He'd still have unsettled hours every day. Usually between 7-10pm. But it will get better. They just need a bit of time adjusting to being out in the world.
Congratulations... it will pass... it took my lil girl about a week but took about 6/7 weeks to settle properly and get into a routine.. i have 3 children and they were all different... my 2 older boys settled pretty much settled straight away and got into a routine. I co-slept with mine though as breastfed.... its as much of a shock to them as it is us...things will get easier with time...xx
He is still getting used to everything new smells noises ect. He will soon settle in your routines and your home soon enough
