I always said I would never bed share, but these past few nights I have been doing just that. I lay her in her crib first but exactly 40 minutes later ( every time!) she wakes up for no reason. Then I bring her to bed and nurse her and she stays asleep for 3+ hours. I'm actually mad at myself for doing it 😓 Any ideas why she wakes after exactly 40 minutes in her crib?

Babies usually sleep in cycles of 40 mins or so until they learn to sleep for longer stretches. But it might have something to do with baby waking up and missing something (you, warmth, food) and then not going back to sleep. I find that my LO falls back asleep if I give him a pacifier. And we co-sleep too, so I'm able to sush or feed him back to sleep if need be.
