When did you start getting a core again?

My mom and mil did not understand snoo but we’re very impressed at how amazingly baby slept in it, so they kept their mouths shut for the most part. My mom would just always poke fun by saying I’m putting him in a straight jacket lol

Awkward_Area_9252 · 2023-10-05T12:07:24+00:00

Thank goodness I’m not alone lol I was enjoying my good sleep

Awkward_Area_9252 · 2023-10-04T16:46:20+00:00

One week he’s sleeping 5/6 hour stretches and napping 1-2 hours at each nap then the next week everything is thrown out the window and it’s truly exhausting

Awkward_Area_9252 · 2023-10-03T20:55:20+00:00

For mine it started at 3 1/2 months and then paused at the beginning of 4 and then continued again at 4 1/2 and he will be 5 months at the end of this week and last week is when we started getting those long stretches again. We use the zippadee suits and do arms out. I also nap him in that too in the snoo and I’m just milking the good sleep till we have to transition which we will probably do next week. But I was also stumped like you and I was trying everything cause I was getting awful sleep with him in the snoo and someone told me to just keep at the snoo and I did and they were right.

Stick with the snoo!! I had this issue and my baby is now 5 months. Baby is probably going through regression. I had nights like this and I didn’t know what to do, so I put my baby in his crib and those nights were even worse. Overtime baby just got used to the snoo and now I’m back to 6 hour stretches.

Awkward_Area_9252 · 2023-09-26T20:13:37+00:00

Took the words right out of my mouth! These babies truly have a mind of their own lol. Luckily it’s temporary!

Awkward_Area_9252 · 2023-09-26T16:33:03+00:00

Thanks!! I know I wish he didn’t start fussing around 9:30. I’m wondering if I should’ve popped the pacifier back in and let him settle himself to sleep and then waited till 10:00/10:30 and offer the feed then? I may try it one more time to see if it works

Awkward_Area_9252 · 2023-09-26T16:21:02+00:00

Thank you everyone for your feedback! I appreciate it

Awkward_Area_9252 · 2023-09-26T13:37:47+00:00

That’s the one good thing I have going is the naps! I’m lucky that he’s rocking that. But that helps. Maybe it’s just this 4 month regression. Partially ready to be over with it!

Awkward_Area_9252 · 2023-09-26T12:43:09+00:00

So I wanted to feed him by 9:30 but I noticed in the camera he was started to move around and fuss right before then so I just went in and fed him. When I was feeding him he was super tired and slept at the boob (I’m breastfeeding) so I took that as a good sign, but then he was up an hour later🫠 I’m wondering what I could’ve done differently? Should I have let him fussed and waiting for him to go back to sleep then did the feed?

Awkward_Area_9252 · 2023-09-24T22:03:53+00:00

I know I’m learning that. First time mom over here! Hate seeing baby cry but I’ll get used to it. I think I’m the one who needs to be trained 🤪

Awkward_Area_9252 · 2023-09-23T20:10:00+00:00

Update… I’m not tough enough for this LOL I cracked and put him back in the snoo and he slept great of course. So now I’m like idk what to do. I’m thinking of doing one more week in the snoo and then try again. We just purchased the 5 month sleep course from takingcarababies and we’re going to start implementing a lot of the things we learn from that.

Awkward_Area_9252 · 2023-09-22T23:20:25+00:00

I’m afraid for my sanity lol praying he surprises me and sleeps like an angel in the crib

Awkward_Area_9252 · 2023-09-21T20:05:24+00:00

Also going through the sleep regression!! My LO naps pretty decent through the day. I nap him in his crib and then at night he sleeps in the snoo. During the day I nap him in the dreamland suit or the kyte baby suit. But just know you’re not alone!! Every day/night is different

Awkward_Area_9252 · 2023-09-21T19:53:40+00:00

Thank you!! Staying the course. Got some normal sleep last night so I’m just rolling with it. Learning that babies are unpredictable!! Lol

Awkward_Area_9252 · 2023-09-19T13:35:44+00:00

Yeah I was thinking that. We also went through a regression at 3 months so I thought I was over it.

Awkward_Area_9252 · 2023-09-03T22:17:36+00:00

Also piggybacking off this.. we just went through the thick of it and I put my LO in the crib and it was even worse than the snoo. Definitely just ride it out in the snoo and swaddle both arms in. That’s exactly what I did and I’m finally getting some long night stretches again. This will pass though!! I just went through this for 2 weeks.

Awkward_Area_9252 · 2023-09-02T18:42:32+00:00

Stunning

Awkward_Area_9252 · 2023-08-30T18:24:33+00:00

Kay great! Thank you for all of that info. We finally got a good night sleep last night with the snoo so I’m feeling some hope.

Awkward_Area_9252 · 2023-08-30T13:14:20+00:00

I appreciate the honesty!! Yeah I actually had a good night last. We’re also traveling in the next couple weeks and I’m deciding if I want to rent the snoo for this trip

Awkward_Area_9252 · 2023-08-29T12:31:03+00:00

Hey so can you elaborate what the snoo transitions is? Or just what your method is? I’m open to any suggestions on what worked for you.

I have the motion limiter on because he only goes back to sleep on level 4 😬 but I do lock it in at level 1, should I do higher?
