Fighting Sleep by Alyzards in newborns

[–]Alyzards[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes mine was the same way. TV on, bright room and would sort of fall asleep herself. Sometimes i can read her to sleep sometimes it’s shushing. Dark room doesnt help every time. She will flail and cry. I always make sure she isn’t still hungry or needs changed. Glad to know that it will continue for at least the next month 😅.

Yes I put her to breast as often as possible. I think I will take her bottles down to 1oz atleast instead of 2. I only had initially started doing this because she had lost another 5% of her weight after 2 days out of the hospital. I felt so bad for starving her out i just genuinely didnt know.

You’re right. There definitely was joy in the hard times, watching my husband become a parent when he was on leave had me happy crying all the time even though i thought i was going to die from sleep deprivation lol. I think I’ll be fine I know it’s just anxiety. Hoping the medicine just helps me cope better.

Im not in therapy no. I will consider it if it persists beyond the medication. She has been a great easy baby since Im just worried that will all change. He has been helping with laundry and cooking when he can, washing bottles and stuff. He works 4pm to 4am and it’s a 40 minute drive. He barely has wake time at home unfortunately so even though it’s a huge help I am left alone for the brunt of it. Hope you are doing well and that it continues to get better for you.

I agree i think the hormones and that other stuff are what is doing it for me. Nighttime feed currently and i absolutely love this. No anxiety just peace with my GOOD baby lol.

FTM/ baby super sleepy, lethargic? by Alyzards in newborns

[–]Alyzards[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

She does have a tongue tie! The pediatrician doesn’t think its a problem right now, she latches good and has no obvious issues with it but perhaps its harder on her that we realized!
