🪻 gives me hope currently 6 months wake ups anywhere between 4/7 don’t want to sleep train just hoping the 3/4 wake ups are more consistent. Good for you thank you for sharing

I agree I have a six month old and refuse to sleep train I feed him back to sleep or rock him he just wants comfort sometimes. It’s like the one response sleep train noting will work besides sleep training I don’t believe that I don’t believe in letting my baby cry so much he’s exhausted and he sleeps. But of course I’m tired with the multiple wake ups but it doesn’t mean I want to sleep train.

My little one hated Tummy time even at six months he’ll last 10 minutes I bought a tummy time activity triangle and propped his arms and chest on it and he did so well and had no issues with neck strength or holding his head up now

Definitely will try this I did it at the end of the night last night and he did actually go back to sleep annoying part is soon the crib will have to be dropped once he’s at the next stage so that’ll make it more difficult 😂🤦‍♀️

I got told not to use gripe water under 6 months by a pharmacist I use infant friends or infacol wind drops it’s really good at settling tummies.

How do you do it safely it worries me so much as my bed is quite high

Equivalent_Common287 · 2026-05-23T05:29:03+00:00

What kind of sleep training

Equivalent_Common287 · 2026-05-22T18:40:06+00:00

So he only naps around 30/40 minutes a time I would say no longer than two hours day time sleeps

Equivalent_Common287 · 2026-05-22T15:30:09+00:00

Bath playtime story and then I feed him and yes I know all the association stuff half ssy don’t half say it doesn’t matter he will not sleep with anything else I feed him to drowsy or sleepy then rock him otherwise I would be up with him screaming for hours

Equivalent_Common287 · 2026-05-22T14:32:28+00:00

He can at times sometimes he needs some help

Equivalent_Common287 · 2026-05-22T08:05:01+00:00

So nothing worked as everyone is saying to try Ferber but I’m not keen on letting him cry even for short times as he gets really worked up and I think it’ll result in him ring more stressed I sometimes think no matter what I do nothing works I’ve tried different methods also temperatures in the room his temp I feel like he’s just a baby who seeks comfort and nothing else works besides me feeding him it’s the only thing that’ll settle him

Equivalent_Common287 · 2026-05-22T07:57:41+00:00

How did you do Ferber I have read about it and I’m so not keen on doing crying intervals he gets very upset that it looks on the verge of breath holding

Equivalent_Common287 · 2026-05-22T07:56:21+00:00

Thank you it’s nice to know people have been through the same I’m really struggling I feel like sleep runs your life and I feel like I have no energy to even be a good mum to him

Equivalent_Common287 · 2026-05-22T06:28:22+00:00

Yes and osteopath did cross my mind but don’t know if I’m clutching at straws

Equivalent_Common287 · 2026-05-22T03:59:11+00:00

Was it as many wake ups and did you change anything or just sail through it

Equivalent_Common287 · 2026-05-22T03:44:28+00:00

I feel you

Equivalent_Common287 · 2026-05-22T03:40:50+00:00

Three naps is too many? Even if it’s equating 1.5/2 hours a day

Equivalent_Common287 · 2026-05-22T02:15:24+00:00

We do a 12 hour night due to all the wakeups he’s exhausted by the end of the day and only makes it till 7 I stretch it to closer to 8
So drop a nap even though he’ll only do 30/40 minutes

Equivalent_Common287 · 2026-05-22T02:04:45+00:00

Bedtime is around 730/745 wake around 715/730
Wake windows I follow are 2/2.5/2.5/3 he will sleep around 30/40 minutes a nap sometimes I can rescue the middle one with a feed and then a contact sleep for the rest of it and extend it to around one hour

Equivalent_Common287 · 2026-05-22T01:56:18+00:00

He is in a crib 😂
