HELP!! I am exhausted.... my son is 10 months old and used to sleep through the night mostly. Now we are going on 2 weeks of him waking up AT LEAST 4 times a night and ending up in our bed since I just get fed up from getting up so much. Any suggestions? I just am so sleep deprived and exhausted.
So how many of yall would get up at 230am to get your husband some food??? I was sleeping man. I'm exhausted after a hard day of taking care of two teething babies and cleaning up and cooking. I am not about to get up out of my sleep just to go heat some food up and risk waking the babies. Nah
I just need to vent. I’m getting really tired of these night sweats I’ve been getting for the past almost 8 years. I’m waking up several times a night covered in sweat. Last night was so bad I had to change the sheets. I’m to the point of tears every night. I’ve had all testing done and they can’t figure out what it is. It’s just awful. I’m so exhausted all the time from not getting a good nights sleep. It sucks
For Fun With most of us in a sleep regression or exhausted from being working moms, or just plain bored I figured it would be fun to get a little game started... so who's up for 2 truths and a lie? It's easy.. you post 3 facts about yourself, 2 true and 1 lie and when you guess you post yours here's mine:
Mommies I need advice.... So last night was night 15 of me sleep training my daughter from sleeping with me to now sleeping in her new crib. It has been EXHAUSTING! When she slept with me she would sleep straight throughout the night. Now she wakes up at the least, 5 times throughout the night. She has waken up at most 8/9 times at night. There have been times where I’m patting her for an 1 hour-2hours straight to get her back to sleep when she has waken up at one of those times🥵. So I have felt like a complete failure because I am delirious due to sleep deprivation, and I’m just so exhausted from this whole journey and can’t catch up with my sleep that when she’s waken up the past two nights at 7am, I haven’t been able to push through my exhaustion and I just put her in the bed with me for an hour or an hour and a half until we wake up just so I can get a little sleep. I don’t want to confuse her and I don’t want all the work I’ve done so far to be a waste because of putting her in bed with me these past two times. I don’t have anyone to take turns with me because I’m a single mom. And at times my bed wakes her back up after putting her to sleep because it’s so noisy 🙄. I’m working on that part, lol. I’ve let her sleep with a shirt of mine that smelled like me 3 nights and it didn’t help. I’ve even given her a bed baby that she sleeps with. What would you guys do in my case.??
I don't get why my baby feeds for long periods of time at night !!! I'm so exhausted and so close to giving up .

Ah! I feel u, mama! Mine is a little over 9 months and she's going through another regression or maybe having her top teeth come in. I've just been trying to stick with her night time routine and put on lavender in our diffuser. Most nights it works... but then some nights .... it doesn't. (Hence this 3am response lol)

It's so awful! He was up every hour last night! AND mama and dad have a bad cold. It also doesn't help that he's so cranky during the day too. @mrs.carmdi,

Oh no! I'm sorry to hear that! How is he with his naps during the day?

He takes a two hour nap every day as long as he's in my arms. If I try to put him down he wakes up @mrs.carmdi,

Ugh I know how you feel! My baby girl does the same thing so I started driving her around the neighborhood to get her to take naps. But Even then her naps are about 45 mins to 1.5 hr long (she takes 2 naps during the day).

Idk if it will help but I noticed my baby sleeping more at night after I started introducing solids into her diet.... and I started giving her formula at night so she's starting to take herself off of night feedings
