freya has never slept well. she used to sleep (for 2 weeks)from 11-5 then up for the day which was the best shes ever done.before that it was much the same as it is now.

the past week if i add up how much shes slept between the hours of 11-6 its more like 1hr or 2 per night i think im losing the will to live!

Oh Clare..I'm sorry you're finding things so tough but I am sure they will get better. Do you do a full bedtime routine etc before you put Freya down for the night? Judging by her weight gain, she's a hungry girl. Does she put on like 1lb per week? That's what it seems like. She now weighs the same as Cara! That said, my nephew weighed 21lbs at 3 months old and had to wear 2yr old clothes for the width with massive turn ups on the sleeves and legs

Have you tried other things than feeding her at night? She might just be in the habit of waking and being fed, rather than actually needing to be fed? I'm just trying to think of something that might help a bit

 

[kit_cat]

Morning Hayley!

How you doing m'love? Really glad to hear your smear was A OK Also, I loved Nate's bubbly bath pics...he's adorable

Yes, Cara is on the move but can only go backwards at the moment She still only has one toothy peg too but I think the other bottom one is close to coming through. What about Nate?

its not that shes waking up shes just not going to sleep

people can shoot me down for this i dont care but shes going in her room tonight and im going to do controed crying from now on before i abandon her

we used to swaddle her and that would help but now she just rips herself out the swaddle and kicks her arms and legs about until shes full awake then screams.
she doesnt settle until 11. shall i just play bath milk bed for 8pm tonight i know its drastic but i honestly dont think i can do it any other way

Hey..no one wants to shoot you down..I understand sleep deprivation and how the world is a dark and gloomy place when you're in the thick of it.

Sometimes even now when I put Cara down for the evening, she cries. I know that if I leave her alone, she will settle herself. In the early months, I used to put her down, leave her for a few minutes, if she was still crying I'd go in, stroke her head, reassure her etc (I wouldn't pick her up) then leave again. Sometimes I'd have to do this 3, 4 or 5 times but eventually she'd go off to sleep until the next feed. It worked but I had to be quite strong minded about not picking her up or feeding her when I knew she had just been fed.

 

[addie25]

Clare I agree with kit don't pick her up and let her calm herself down and hopefully she will start to sleep better. It must be so hard to watch ur baby cry for a bit but a lot of moms tell me that's what they had to do and it worked.

 

[addie25]

5am here I'm becoming a bad sleeper also ahhh I went to bed at 11 hopefully acid goes away n I sleep a little more. I have my doctor at 945 hopefully she gives me something for the acid. The book I'm reading is giving me bad dreams I woke up before scared thinking I was in a jungle and people were trying to get me. lol I should stick to comedy. The books really good tho I will buy the second book today I'm almost done with the first.

 

[Sarachka]

Claire does she have a set routine? I know we can't mention the most famous book about routines but my sister swears by it. She's had two good sleepers thanks to it.

 

[mummyApril]

hehe aw too cute! we will have to meet up before they get too big!

like James who used to sleep through the night from 9 weeks and one day 2 months ago decided hed like to be an owl! (probably because i dressed him as a polar bear!) so he would wake once in the night for a drink
