sleep training

Does this mean a) nothing: anomaly b) I need to reduce second nap a bit c) baby sleep is mysterious don’t even bother figuring it out Baby is a v solid napper, but a cries often at night (without getting up) sleep trained, 2 times a night feeder. She missed second nap due to a 5 minute car...

This sub includes a preponderance of posts that sound like this: My baby didn't sleep, I had no idea about sleep training, then I discovered it, implemented it, and on the third night they tucked themself in and slept twelve hours. Now I have my life back. If that's you, I'm happy. But I asked...

I’m at a loss he sleeps terrible only contact naps during the day, if I’m lucky he will sleep 30 minutes for the first nap in the bassinet. His bedtime wavers from 6-7pm and wakes between 6-7am. He’s was initially waking at 12am, 3am and 5 am for feeds overnight. Now he sleeps at max two hour...

My husband is ready to throw in the towel. Yet we’ve seen so much improvement! It’s a semi success?? Our 10 month old has gone from waking up 5-7 times nightly to about 0-2 wakeups depending on the night. It’s usually one! This is immensely better, there’s no doubt about it. We’ve (I’ve)...

Bb is almost 9 weeks old! Just had our 2 month appointment and ped said to start working on independent sleep. I’m going out of town w bb for 4 weeks in a few days (to stay w family) so my plan was to wait until we get there and get settled for a couple nights. That way bb feels more...

Hi! I wanted to post to help others because this group really helped me power through sleep training. First baby: a great sleeper (7-7 with a 10pm dream feed) until the four month sleep regression. That's when we decided to sleep train/cry it out. Because babies start developing the ability to...

Has anyone tried the Little Z Sleep program? If so, can you share your experience? Thanks in advance!

Hi all, My wife and I are losing our mind. My 5 y/o started sleeping through the night at 3 months, and never had much of a problem. My 9 month old though has never slept more than a few hours, will often fall asleep for thirty minutes at bed time then be awake until midnight, and wakes up...

After a very unexpected successful and painless 3 to 2 nap transition and almost 2 weeks of the 2 nap schedule my LO has started to wake up after 40 mins into a nap. I rescue every nap now. He used to have 2 x 1.5 hr - 1.75 hr naps. I usually plan about 3-3h20m of nap time. I switched to 2 naps...

(Nights 1-3 here) Welp, by the time we went for the first check in after 5 mins she had been sick e v e r y w h e r e. Took Dad a good 15 mins to clean up and re set, in which time I made another bottle as she’d thrown up all of her food and bedtime milk. She was pretty chill the whole time...

I type this message knowing we very well may just be lucky, but I wanted to share our experience of resounding success using the Ferber method. Tonight was our fourth night using Ferber, and our nearly 20-week old son not only was looking forward to bed, but fell asleep in under 5 minutes...

We’ve tried Ferber twice (5 months and 7 months) with no luck. I’m desperate to get this baby sleeping through the night. What method would you suggest for this 10 month old? Thanks!

Did I add wake time too quickly?! Age: 14 months next week Schedule: 5.75/5 We dropped to 1 nap about 3.5 weeks ago and are always running into new problems after several good days on a schedule. We were doing 3.25/3.75/4 on two naps but she was falling asleep closer to 3.25/4/4.25. Naps...

Baby is already sleep trained. We had her into a routine of in bed at 7, wakes for a feed between 2 and 5, then regardless of what time we fed her, wakes up at 7. One feed a night every night for over a month. Now she’s waking up between 12-1 every night and wanting to be fed every 2-3 hours...

This may not be the ideal space for these questions but being it has to do with sleep I’m going to try you ladies! I have 5 children N(f10), G(f9), L(m6), M (m2), Q(5 months). N&G share a room. They have been sharing since N was 4 and G was 2.5. They have been on a similar schedule being so...

To the author of this book - do you honestly think if my baby calmed down and went to sleep in her crib with just patting and singing that I’d be reading your fricking book in the first place. Honestly it’s like step 1 get your baby used to sleeping flat on their back, not on your body. Step 2...

I’m so terrified to wake my 8 month old, I’m terrified she will see me! Im already giving that extra comfort that I had weaned! I’m creeping round like it’s a surprise every night if she wakes! My husband snores! It’s a bloody disaster. 🤦🏼‍♀️

Our daycare has a nap time for all its babies at 12 noon, but our kid (8.5 months) is getting close to dropping to two naps so we're trying to work out how this will work. At daycare, naps vary quite a bit, but on a typical day its something like : baby wakes at 7, naps 9-10, 12:15-1:45...

Me again haha. As I continue to try and tinker with my 7.5 month old's schedule to address the new EWT (5am and can't be rocked back down/extended in any way as of this week. He wakes up RARING to go and happy and not even all that hungry)...do I start with the experiment of longer WW before bed...

I used cry it out for my ticket when he was about 7 months, then we switched to a toddler bed and he’s been getting rocked to sleep. Here’s the problem- he’s been waking up super early at 6am (he used to wake up at 8:30-9) and he’s been napping for only 20 minutes. (I’ve tried 11, 12, 1 for nap...
