How long should I let my 5month old cry? Lately he has been horrible with napping, no, I don't spoil him, but he just will not take a nap no matter whether I'm holding him or lay him down or anything I try. So I put him in the crib and he's crying and screaming. He's been fighting his sleep lately except at night so I don't get it, I can tell he's tired . 😞
My son is the same age and has been doing the exact same thing recently, even at night. Maybe a car ride? He has a much easier time falling asleep and staying asleeo when swaddled, i usually do this unstead of loading him in the car. Youll get through it momma!
@hannibelle, he just ate, he's burped, just changed his diaper. He's just tired. He's running his eyes and you can see it in his face that he's sleepy. He just has been extremely difficult to get down for a nap
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...
Trigger. Lost baby
Went in for my 20 week check up and found out our son had passed away. Nothing was wrong, my pregnancy has been going great. I'm so numb right now. I'll he delivering him later this week. I don't want to do this. I don't want to do this. Not before Christmas. How am I'm going to tell my kids?? My dear sweet baby boy. Why did this happen?
So this has nothing to do with my pregnancy but it's a thought I've been having lately: when I first met my husband I told him I was bisexual but willing to date him as long as my past was never bought up in our relationship.... been married for 4 years now and lately I've been missing a female touch... I don't love him any less in fact I love him more each day but sometimes I miss that intimacy

This is my son Walter. Today is his birthday. He would have been five. This picture was taken when he was 16 days old. He was my first child and my only son (I now have 3 girls). He passed away the next day after this picture from congenital heart failure. It was a miracle that he lived passed 12 weeks gestation because of how severe his heart defects were. I miss him so much, I can't believe it's been 5 years. It still hurts so bad. I don't talk about him a lot out loud because I end up bawling...
Rant
My SO has been rude a lot ever since I've gotten pregnant...he said he doesn't care about my pregnancy, he doesn't even take one day off from work just ONE to come to at least one ultra sound appointment. I mean he's always making sure I'm fed, he lets use the heating pad, and even apologized to saying he doesn't care. He can mess with me all day but when I want to join and play around he gives me an attitude. He just makes me feel like s*** at times. He's a great fiancé don't get me wro...
Try white noise, soft classical music, or maybe letting him nap on the floor(blankets laid down), etc.
If you know there is absolutely nothing wrong with him, it does not hurt your kid for them to cry for two minutes or so as they fall asleep. As moms, we cannot carry our children around literally 24/7. I'm not saying to let him cry for hours, but 2 or 3 minutes isn't going to harm him in any way. Rub his back, let him know you're there, comfort him, and lay him down. Maybe sing or read to him.
