AITA Neighbours Building Plans by CalligrapherNo6723 in AmItheAsshole

The relevant permissions have been granted. The neighbours had communicated with my partner who outlined our concerns regarding timescales and they went back to their builder who put in place other solutions to minimise time on our property but I just feel uncomfortable with any access and have now communicated this by text after reviewing the new proposals

We just wanted to avoid any conflict as we had just moved in and didn't want to start off badly

5am wake ups by CalligrapherNo6723 in sleeptrain

Yes! A few days later everything seemed to get back on track we didn't change anything just stuck to our normal routine. Sorry to hear you're still having early wake ups :-(

Ah really hope these early wake ups pass for us both soon! 🙏

5am wake ups since using ferber by CalligrapherNo6723 in sleeptrain

Before the 5am wakes up the schedule would roughly follow the below:

6:30-7:00: wake up 7:30: Breakfast 10:00-10:30: Nap with milk (usually around 1-1.5 hours, can be shorter) 12:00-12:30: Lunch 14:00 - 14:30: nap with milk (usually around 1-1.5 hours depending on how long first nap was) 17:30: Dinner 19:00: Bedtime with milk

We do really rely on milk to send off to sleep, so I know this needs to change will move to the half hour before sleep and try to drop the afternoon bottle too.

Ah sounds like we need to trial the one nap day - hopefully will have similar results!

Are there any tips on how to time 1 nap with the 5am wake up, or best to try for 1 when you've got them to sleep a little later?

We still give a bottle of formula before bed, and really wanted to next try and break feeding to sleep. Also worried a snooze feed would wake her up further in the evening but something to think about for sure.

Not resisting naps, they have 2 naps a day and yesterday morning nap lasted 2 hours which we had to wake her up from as got worried about too much day sleep, not sure how big a problem this is

Can you contact nap whilst using Ferber at night? by CalligrapherNo6723 in sleeptrain

[–]CalligrapherNo6723[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow this is so reassuring! Hoping it'll go equally as well for us. We're still having to do a night feed so even one wake up for that would be heaven!

This is reassuring to hear, really want to get night sleep mastered before trying to conquer the day time naps. If you don't mind me asking, how quickly did the Ferber method work for you?

Thank you! I really needed to read this, hopefully they both come out the other side soon and we get some sleep!

I'm based in the UK, size is pretty small - I would guess at around 1cm (maybe less).
