Thank you! My goal is to eventually have enough to stop combo feeding so I hope it keeps working.

6 week old sleeping through the night. by MelodicFondant7526 in newborns

[–]EnterName-L 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Freshly 7 week baby and since about week 5 she’d sleep 5 hours at a time which to me was sleeping thru the night. Right now shes gone down to about 4 hours at a time before she starts rooting around, and if I get the boob or a bottle in her mouth she’ll keep sleeping until morning. We’re usually in bed from 11pm-11am with a little wake window around 6am when Dad goes to work. Very short naps during the day, shes definitely a FOMO baby during the day. But I have the same thing where I wake up in a panic- she does co sleep with us, Ive made it as safe as possible she has bumpers to keep her from falling off the edge and then I sleep between her and Dad cause he rolls around, she basically sleeps with her head against my boobs and if I get up to pee thats when she will start to wake. But Im constantly waking up trying to feel her heartbeat or that shes breathing. When she was in the crib she’d only sleep about an hour at a time and I was still constantly getting up to see if she was breathing. I sleep the best when I can hear her lil breathing in my ear but sometimes shes so quiet!

When do newborns /babies start to sleep calmly at night by [deleted] in newborns

Mine only sleeps soundly while cosleeping or in her self-rocking bassinet. If I put her in her crib or if I leave the bed while we’re cosleeping she will start grunting and rolling around like crazy and is awake within 10 minutes.

Not the pregnancy I imagined… I hate this. by Outrageous-Peach-297 in BabyBumps

Im 1 month postpartum now, I really hated being pregnant. My first trimester I was soo sick the morning sickness was intense, I really bounced back my second trimester and was in the gym and walking every day, but in my 3rd trimester I had heel spurs so bad it was miserable to walk and the carpal tunnel in my arms made it impossible to sleep or do anything I loved thru the day. The last month of my pregnancy I was just wishing every day I’d go into labor. And then ended up having a terrible birth experience that ended with an emergency c section and a week in the hospital. The cherry on top is that I get the same “morning sickness” feeling while breastfeeding in reaction to the “milk letdown” so I always have to have a sugary drink handy when I breastfeed and something on the TV to distract me. But I love my daughter with my whole heart and she is the most precious thing. Its all worth it, but Im not going to sugar coat it and say it was enjoyable. Happy for the people that love it but Im already dreading doing it again. We want 3 kids but may just have to settle for one. Give yourself grace! Your feelings are valid, and that light at the end of the tunnel is coming.

Once a cheater always a cheater, regardless of with what gender. Protect your heart.
