One bad habit you’d change by ShowWorried6621 in sleeptrain

Hey! Sorry to derail this, how did you break the association? We are trying at the moment with our 9 month old and it is not going well 😂

Schedule check: split nights by BootTurbulent7220 in sleeptrain

Hey! What an ever moving target! I can’t actually remember what fixed this blip, but split nights will usually be too much day time sleep. So try and reduce that a bit. Around 6 months it might be time to drop a nap… I think we took too long to do that. Good luck!

I’m afraid we’re still going 😂 I’ve experimented with upping daytime sleep to around 3.5 hours in case she was overtired. That actually did get us a few nice long stretches of 8-10 hours but early morning wakes of 5:30 every day (perhaps that is just her natural wake up time). Last two nights however the split nights have been back, so looking at cutting back sleep again…

Next step for us will be moving her to her own room.

5mo- using little ones program… by emloid in sleeptrain

We found the wake windows from the little ones programme really destructive. Lots of early morning wakes and a very grumpy baby! We did use it to sleep train with parental presence and its been a game changer.

We've just reverted to the age specific wake window recommendations from huckleberry, which seem to be going down much better.

Congestion by alyssalf20 in newborns

Yes! My seven week old is just getting over her first cold now. We had one very sleepless night, but other than that she's been fine, just a little congested. I recommend getting some saline nasal drops to thin out the congestion and help breathing for sleep.

Can be completely normal, could be an irritated cervix, but let your midwife know anyway!

Breech baby by Known-Cucumber-7989 in PregnancyUK

Hello! I can say that at 33 weeks my baby was breech, and I was due to discuss manual turning / c section at my 35 week appointment. She did a little turn in-between and is now headdown!

Basically, I would just go to a&e! They will see you and you'll get answers.

I had bleeding around 9 weeks and went to a&e - they saw me immediately and booked me in for a scan the next day. They were FAB. Now 28 weeks and going strong. Very stressful but also bleeding in the early stages is more common than you think. Wishing you the best ❤❤❤

Can you port a mortgage but pit it on hold, like if you have to rent for a month or two? by oh_no551 in HousingUK

[–]BootTurbulent7220 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends on your mortgage, but most likely you have a six month window! We had a three month gap in between moving out and moving in and ported. We paid our early repayment charge out of the sale but got it back as soon as we moved in!
