co-sleeping

My baby is 4.5 months and the sleep regression is killing me. I do all night wake ups and care for him during the day while my husband is at work. We have no family around us and he only naps for 30-40 minutes so I can’t nap when he does. The sleep deprivation is almost worse than it was when he...

I’m hoping someone has some advice for me! My 6.5month old son and I have been Co-sleeping almost from day 1. He just doesn’t seem to be able to connect his sleep cycles at all! He actually feeds 2-3 times a night. But like clock work he wakes, and goes 0-10 hunting for my boob! I always give...

I posted here a couple of months ago about weaning my cosleeping 2-year-old. Well I have an update. Almost immediately after he was weaned, my kid started sleeping through the night. But then his tossing and turning started getting really wild. He would crawl around the bed in a half sleep and...

Does anyone else feel ready to transfer baby out of your bed but too overwhelmed to commit? And by baby I mean a 20m old toddler. I've perused different methods, talked to several moms and tried to do what feels natural for us too but I'm just so overwhelmed with the process of transitioning...

I FTM (24f) was mom shamed for the first time by a soon to be mother 2 weeks ago and I cannot stop thinking about it. My older sisters best friend who is like a sister to me is expecting her first child. My baby boy is currently 4 months old and we were chatting and she was asking my advice/...

I am a working mom and my husband is a stay at home dad. We have a 2 year old, and a 3 month old. I go back to work in one month, so we’re starting to plan for the logistics of what that will look like. We live in a two bedroom apartment; one bedroom is my daughter’s, and the second is ours...

I’m a FTM and my LO is 3.5 months now. I started co sleeping with him when he was around 3 months and we both sleep so incredibly well now (he was a terrible sleeper before)! I sleep with the c curl position and usually fall asleep while feeding him. Last night I woke up when he cried and I had...

My baby girl is 6 months old. She slept 8 hour stretches from 2-4 months and then the 4 month sleep regression hit, hard. For the last 6 weeks or so, she will only fall asleep nursing and if I try to put her down in her crib in her room or the pack n play in my bedroom she immediately wakes up...

How do I set my bed up to help baby not roll? Our bed is off the ground, he’s not really rolling yet. He’s 7 weeks. But would something like this work...

Hey there! We’ve been bed sharing on a floor bed with our 7-month-old for the last three months. Before that, we were using a Halo swivel bassinet. The floor bed is working fine, but we’re a little uncomfortable and want some more space. I’ve been looking for a bedside sleeper with a pull-down...

i bed share w my 9 month old and have since she was about 3/4 months. i love it and don’t have plans to move her to her own bed anytime soon. however, what i don’t love is the lack of freedom i have. her bedtime is 8 and i have me time once she’s down... but me time is interrupted like every...

We are planning a trip to Europe with our baby who will be about 3.5 months. I can’t guarantee the firmness of any of the mattresses we will be sleeping on-what do y’all do when traveling and mattress firmness is unpredictable? Given the way my older daughter was at the same age, I highly doubt...

Space is tight, but I’m wondering if the maxi will really get us that much more use as it’s only 3 extra inches width and 2.5 in length. Anybody regret going with one or the other? My guy is 4 weeks old and not on the huge side, so I’m thinking we may be ok w original.

I have 6 month old twins (3 month adjusted). Baby B needs to be resettled every 45 minutes so I’m going to explore cosleeping to save my sanity. I’m going to stay in the nursery so I can quickly tend to Baby A who will stay in his crib. Last night I put baby B on his mini crib mattress on the...

Does anyone sleep with their baby in the cuddle curl position but sit up or take them to a chair to feed?? My little guy is 4 weeks old and we’ve been sleeping in c-curl for 3ish weeks now and he’s doing so great. Weight gain is perfect. But sometimes I feel like he doesn’t get a full feeding...

Reworded post: I’m curious to know if anyone else experienced similar. Between 6 & 7 m.o., my (now almost 8 m.o.) LO demonstrated intense separation anxiety and we started bed sharing. After this, she magically started sleeping through the night (we were told this typically happens around 6...

A few nights ago my 8 week year old and I started bedsharing because he wouldn’t sleep unless being held which means I wasn’t sleeping at all. Additional info on that down below. So it was either: accidentally fall asleep with him in my arms on the couch / rocking chair, or intentionally bed...

My baby is 6 weeks old and I’ve been focused on caring for him and my own physical recovery from a very intense birthing experience. But! The desire for physical intimacy with my partner is coming back and I have no clue as to how we’ll navigate that with the baby always napping and sleeping on...

I need some advice. I (26F) need help getting my 8 month old to sleep in his crib but I don’t want to use the CIO method. How long can I let him cry before it’s the CIO method?? I can’t get myself to let him cry more than 5 minutes before my heart is breaking and I go to him. Eventually he ends...
