HELP!!!! my little boy is 8 months soon and still unable to self soothe! I put him in his cot last night and he just screamed and screamed until he made himself sick and I picked him up and he stopped straight away and started to fall to sleep but as soon as I put him down he started again. I tried again this morning for his nap and he was screaming again and was sweating so much he looked like he had been in the bath but again as soon as I picked him up he's ok. But I can't just leave him to self soothe when he gets in this much of a mess! I don't know what to do :( he's currently been asleep 2.5 hours after I breastfed him to sleep! He has one sometimes two naps a day and they last about 3 hours if he has one but only about 1-2 hours if he has two but at night he only sleeps about an hour then wakes up

Sounds so difficult. I chose to sleep train at 4.5 months because I worried that when they got to the age to pull themselves up on the crib and scream mum at me and fall back and potentially hurt themselves, I wouldn't be able to do it. Personally if it is the route you want to go down then firstly pick a method, read up on it. I chose ferber and ordered his book, read it for a week or two before going through. And then when you decide to sleep train, stick to it. They will scream and cry and sweat and all sorts. But what helps with picking a method is that you can calm yourself as a parent if you know how to handle the situation. For example in ferbers method if bubba vomits, you're to go in, clean them up, no excessive contact, check they're okay and then put them back to bed and exit. However this may vary. Some babies do better if mum stays in the room and slowly moves out. It's just something you need to put a little time into and be quite strong about. Again, only if you want. I have sleep trained yet I still breastfeed to sleep because I like it. However he does sleep through because he has learnt to self soothe. To each thier own hun and good luck, xx

Have you ever thought of introducing formula. Even if only as a bed time bottle? You can breastfeed and do formula as well. I had to do both when my little boy was 2months as he was so demanding and my milk supply couldn't keep up. I did notice that when I introduced formula he slept all night. It's just an idea xx

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 and did something else with an other girl.... and it's 10:51 am now and he hasn't texted me at all. and after he dropped me off I texted him saying what I felt and nothing. I don't know if I'm over reacting or what or what should i do. do i wait until he text me?

Got home around 11... washed lil man up and made him a bottle... asked my husband to get off his phone and help me put him to sleep... as soon as I did, my husband sat on the couch and fell right to sleep with Zach in his arms... I walked over to him and picked Zach up and he has to nerve to jump awake talking about I scared him because he thought he dropped Zach... this is why I’ve stopped asking him to hold him... he is irresponsible... I ended up setting up Zach’s stand up floor lamp, rearranging his room, making him a late night/early morning bottle, rocking him to sleep in his car seat and then moving him to his room all while my husband was knocked out in the living room.... I swear I feel like a single mother

I literally have to only give my dad and his gf enough for 1 bottle when I drop him off there every Tuesday because last week they were about to give him 6oz in an hour like are you crazy they said because he was crying, play with him give him attention and he won't cry pick him up and walk around with him. I told him he gets 3 oz at 7pm they ended up not giving him the 3 oz till 7:30 and we got there at 8:30 to pick him up and was feeding him again I lost my mind it pisses me off bc he has a schedule and they totally didn't listen
