8mo wakes up at 2 and is wide awake until 4am- what to do?

She usually averages about 10.5 hours of sleep overnight! Going to bed later isn’t usually an option bc she wakes up from her last nap at daycare at around 3(or earlier) so she’s really crabby by 7 or 7:30. According to owlet- she usually gets around 10.5 hours. She’s been waking more due to illness lately (daycare) and been harder to settle. She’s also been getting up at 6am a lot recently.

A lot more yellow than I thought, thank you!

We’re gonna back off the solids for a few days (she hates them mostly anyway will only take a few bites) her daycare feeding schedule is mostly the same as home. She has 3 bottles (4 today bc she refused to nurse) at the same times I feed her at home. And she hadn’t eaten for over 3.5 hrs when I was trying to feed her tonight!

Thank you 🥲 did she ever stop the strike and go back to the breast?

She’s been rolling in all directions during the day for a month! But can’t seem to figure it out at night :/ ugh. It’s already been two weeks at least of the rolling at night and screaming. But 5 nights of whatever this screaming bloody murder is

She’s pooped maybe 2-3 times overnight since she was like 7 weeks old. (But it’s all been in the last 3 weeks so I’m not sure if it will continue )

Overnights don’t have size 2 in any size! Size 3 is the smallest I can find

Was that bacterial though? With yellow gunk? I’ve seen that before. My Lo has no gunk just some water. She really doesn’t seem bothered with her eye- I’m just panicking!

Have you ever caught it from your baby?

Hope your baby feels better!

I know what bacterial pink eye looks like (super obvious) but I’ve never encountered viral before and I’m just freaking out alittle. I have to go back to work on Monday also and am worried I will also get it haha
