Hey that's an idea.... Could maybe try- although she did say he felt all fine and balanced last time- think they can only help when there's a physical issue Worth a try though!!

Chell- just realised I didn't answer you. No I don't honestly think there's anything wrong with him- he's never sick or anything. He just wakes up and doesn't seem to know how to go back to sleep!!

Baby and Bump's just changed!! It looks weird!!  I read the other day that they'd sold it to Momtastic!

evening ladies,
The lay out has changed. I like it though.

Suz, sammuals routine sounds pretty much like shaes. He has 2 naps at theose times to.If he doesnt have an afternoon nap though he is an absolute nightmare to settle for bed. His bedtime is 6/ 6:30 now and after his bedtime bottle i out him in his cot and he plays until he falls asleep. Well not so much plays, just talks to is teddies.
Have you tried leaving him to play on his own until he falls to sleep whilst you get things done?

Well pains have started again. No regularity i just feel soooo sick through them and my head is pounding.

I hate it! It keeps changing and is running SOOO slow right now

 

[SBB]

What's happened?! What the frick is momtastic?!

Laura, no I don't leave him, normally cos it's an excuse to lie down but I could try. He did used to just go to sleep fine on his own sometimes. When I say sometimes, I mean twice. Ever.

I'm in the 'new look' thread.. its freaking horrible, I hate it. I could care less about the 'momtastic' part although it sounds really really stupid, lol.

Poor Casey is going to come back and not know what happened

They have all these mom ads/banners etc up on the loss/ttc sections too though! They're 'working' on it, but seriously? no warning that this was comming, no thought or protection for those coming here at a trying time in their life?

There was a thread announcement at the top of the forum last week but that's all. I'll see if I can find it...

There- the owner Wobbles has basically sold the website on but is still going to run it x

Suz- I read a Dr Sear's thing earlier (the AP guy) and he was going on about babies sleep cycles and recommended once you've rocked/sang/cuddled a baby to sleep to wait 20 mins before moving or putting the baby down (something to do with letting the baby get out of REM sleep. I tried it tonight and Ben has been asleep for 3 hours and 10 minutes so far without a single evening wake up!!!

This is it if you want a read xxx

BnB seems a lot faster on my phone now! Does it to anyone else??

 

[SBB]

I'll read it now lou! I'm not sure if it seems faster or not... Will see...

S usually sleeps for about 20 mins before I move him if I let him fall asleep on the boob because I just like to have an excuse to lie down for a little while. But that's good to know, I will go read it...

X x x

 

[lisaf]

Definitely sped up, thank goodness!!!

 

[Onelildream]

Wow. This is weird.

 

[babyloulou]

I think while they're still attached to the boob they stay in light sleep Suz cos they still flutter suck occasionally. He mentions in the article something about if they're in deep sleep then they stop suckling (on boob or dummy) - so I would imagine the 20 mins would start once he'd come off the boob??

It makes sense what he says - he says if they are put down in light sleep they then wake at the end of every sleep cycle to be resettled - and then it's just repeated- but if they reach a deep sleep then they can more easily stay asleep through the next sleep cycle as they're so relaxed!

Saying all that - I'm sure it'll only work for us once and then never again! Just like everything else I've tried!!

He's still asleep at the mo though- 3 and a half hours so far x

 

[babyloulou]

Scratch that- he's awake!! Feed time! 

Still 3 and a half hours is brill in the evening for him!!  I bet I can't get it to work again after the feed.....

 

[lisaf]

Keep us posted Lou!!!

(this new layout is giving me a headache )

 

[SBB]

How did you go lou? I'm going to try it tonight!

X x x

 

[babyloulou]

He was so blocked up he couldn't feed and was very upset! We co-slept but didn't actually get any sleep! He wanted to sleep but kept coughing amd spluttering!!

 

[Peach Blossom]

Hi Ladies,

I'm back!

Concert was really amazing! I'm knackered, but so proud of everyone involved!

So, what's going on? What's new?

BnB has changed... looks strange... I thought about setting up my own forum... downloaded the software... Then we could all just chat on that!!

Missed you all.

 

[laura6914]

hey all,

changed my mind. HATE the new B&B. I cant work it out. glad i dont wonder around here much. Such an up roar over the word 'mom' though. I call my mother mom, cant see what the big deal is.

Lou, poor ben.Its awful when they have a cold. Shaes the same, when he is all blocked he wakes every few hours for a cuddle.

Well afm, got a really upset tummy, cant keep off the loo Was up all night with contactions/BH what ever they are, back is killing me and im soooo uncomfortable. I was going to pop into the walk in community MW today to get checked but im hurting that much i dont want to leave the house.
