@robert777 If I put my 5 month old down drowsy, she is wide awake before her heads even hit the mattress. And screaming. There's lots of screaming.

@antnf8900 Mine did that around the same time, then she started reaching for my coffee cup and food! Now ( 6 months) she makes the eating noise and chews at me whenever I eat. I think it's her going 'look mom! I can do it to, wanna give me some?!'. I caved from the cuteness and decided to try...

@steveepperson My partner and I tried a few different things. Started with shifts- I'd sleep from 7pm-1am when lo was a newborn, and then I'd take 1am-5am. I'd technically take 1am-4pm because he goes to work at 5am, but I digress. This was fine because I did prioritize sleeping ( I did in fact...

@mjnor1 I went to a friend's engagement party recently, and had my sister watch my 12mo. We dropped lo off an hour before nap time and got back 30 minutes before bedtime. My sister had absolutely no problem chilling in bed, getting baby cuddles and watching tv for an hour. I made it clear my lo...
