@sold4christ25 I hate that CIO is even a thing. It’s literally neglecting your child until they learn that no one is coming to help them ☹️

@sunny12051988 I’m reading this on hour three of trying to get my son to sleep. Thank you 🥹

@liwinedivas That’s great!!

@liwinedivas I think you should be honest about how you feel. It’s not selfish. Your feelings are valid. The nap is a great idea. My husband and I cuddle before putting LO down when I cosleep, can you do this?

@aardverk I would dress baby lighter. Do you have any thin footie PJ’s? If not, I’d just do a onesie! He should stay warm next to you. I’m so sorry y’all aren’t feeling well! I hope y’all heal soon.

@slateblue I second this, OP. Babies will get overtired and scream their heads off at night if they don’t have enough daytime naps. At one month we did sleep, eat, and play. Baby napped for 2 or more hours, then ate, and played until he had been up 45 minutes to an hour (I had to put him to...
