We made the trimesters pass quickly!

Okay ladies I need some advice. I cannot for the life of me get my child to take a nap unless he's laying on my chest. I nurse him to sleep and put him in his sleeper and he wakes up after 5-10 mins screaming. I've tried swaddling him but he wakes and fights to get out of it. Then he babbles for a while before screaming. I have no choice but to let him nap on me because he's super fussy and cranky when he's tired. What should I do? I'd hate to let him CIO but I cant possibly lay around for two hours after work while he naps.

Use a stretchy wrap or carrier. Baby naps in carrier, you get on with jobs. Everyone wins :)
 
Hope you all are doing well. I just dropped in to say hi. How are all the lo's doing?
 
I'm good pink. Thanks.
Frazer is trying to sit up,but keeps falling over.
How are you doing? Xx
 
Haha Amanda lucy is doing the same!
Jon's trying to teach her to walk lol.
We're great thanks pink :) xx
 
Henry is trying to too, can't believe how quickly our Babies Are growing
 
Is anyone Else Going through a sleep regression? At least that's what I think it is. Henry used to sleep 7-2 then 2-7 so only getting up once, now he is sleeping from 7-12 and getting up almost hourly until 6ish when I can't get him back to sleep at all. Any tips? People keep telling me I shouldn't be feeding him at night but sometimes it's the only think that is settling him
 
Sounds like sleep regression. It should pass. If he's feeding when he wakes then he still needs it. Ignore other people. Your his Mummy and you know him best.

Ignore anyone who says such thing, he's 3 months old of course he needs feeding during the night, I'm sure it will pass its most likely just a phase :hugs: hope you manage some sleep soon x
 
Whoever told you not to feed him at night either never had a baby before or their seriously mislead. Of course you should feed him at night if that's what he wants. You are his mom and you know best.

I will say that Riya is doing the same thing. She wakes up 2-3 times a night now and before she would only wake once.
 
Lucy hasn't been sleeping right since her chickenpox :-( she's slowly getting better though. Hang on in there hun xx

How is everyone?
We viewed a new house today and it was amazing! I fell in love with it... only downfall was the letting agent didn't turn up for the viewing so we don't know what's happening! I know the guy that lives in the house now though so he showed us around anyway. Going to ring in the morning and tell them we want it so fingers crossed :) xx
 
Good luck Carly, I hope you get the house xx
 
Good luck on getting the house Carly!!
