@teamsesh Oh that would be soo ideal!!! I’m cautiously hopeful he’s really higher sleep needs than I think..

@mcmurdo Ahh yes I’m just not wanting to do ferber style sleep training at his age yet… always wanted to wait till 5 or 6 months and the gentle methods are not working so hot..

@teamsesh He’s been that way since birth - 12.5-13 hours average and is a pretty happy kiddo when he’s not fighting naps 🤷‍♀️ I wish he needed more than that!

@panday I’m hoping this is part of it - gonna try the crib ASAP as he’s touching all 4 sides of his bassinet now haha.

@vrijster_7 Oooh I hope that’s what works for us!

@bmazodze I for some reason thought cara was just modified Ferber 🤷‍♀️ I’ll check it out!

@hopeless2016 Did you start with bedtime or just do that with all naps too?

@heartaflame4yahshua Haha!! RIP tailbone. I think you’re on to something though. He did 2 long naps so far today so I think 4 nap is within reach today anyways.

@heartaflame4yahshua Yes - he does one 2 hour contact nap and four 25-35 min contact or carseat/stroller naps… sometimes he’ll nap longer and we’ll cut to 4 naps but that’s rare.

@londonleah Ohhh yes I pee with light off and no flushing till morning haha

@londonleah Haha I don’t let my snoring husband sleep in the same room as us! Between his snoring and my bladder nobody would be getting any sleep. I definitely have woken him as I get in and out of bed..

@londonleah Yes I think he’s a little big for the bassinet!! We just bought a crib mattress today so fingers crossed we’ll see some improvement! How old was she when you ultimately sleep trained her?

@bsy Thanks! I did have a bare mattress on the floor for the first 6 weeks just to feed him safely on although we never coslept.. but then he started sleeping through and we took it out to put in his crib (I guess prematurely)

@marlow7 He’s not a soother guy but the white noise does help!!

@mcmurdo So should I cap naps at an hour max?

@ckm I think 14 hours of sleep a day is on the high sleep needs end! If my guy does 4 hours of naps he’s doing an 8/9 hour night…

@leapthy Ah I got emotional reading that. So glad to hear he’s doing well!! Preemies and their parents are tough as nails - they have to be..

@leapthy How long did it take your little one to fall asleep on the first night? And wow it sounds like you guys had parenting challenges way beyond anything I’ve had to deal with. I’m glad you found a way to make things work

@lmkuhn76 I’ve settled him this way once!! But the next few times I tried he got so mad!!

@speedkr7911 Did you get a specific mattress? I’m afraid mine is too soft….
