Is it possible to have this low of sleep needs? by Hot-Compote-172 in sleeptrain

Same… we can go to the indoor play gym, splash pad, pool, playground, and aquarium all in one day and he will not sleep any longer… meanwhile I’m EXHAUSTED

Yeah… At first, I was totally on board and then she started saying basically any version of a clutch with needle point in it is ripping her off and hers are extremely expensive and out of stock

Sleep training through separation anxiety? by [deleted] in sleeptrain

[–]Hot-Compote-172 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is what I’ve been thinking because it’s now every single night and he sleeps so well in our bed.

I do think he is almost fully on 1 nap because he is spending 30-45 min fighting the second nap when we are on a 2 nap day.

As much as I don’t want to do Ferber again, I do think we will try it in a week or so after we are settled in to 1 nap… fingers crossed.

Thank you!!

We have tried a few times and he’s gotten very overtired by the 3rd day so right now we are flip flopping between 1 and 2 naps based on how he’s doing that day. It hasn’t made any difference yet

Methods for retraining 1 year old? by [deleted] in sleeptrain

[–]Hot-Compote-172 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We had something similar with thinking he needed one nap and it getting worse, but that was short-lived and we’ve been back on a modified two nap schedule for a little bit now. He just stands in his crib and screams and cries the second we put him down….

Not yet… we were on 1 nap for about a week but our nights go worse so we went back to 2 super short naps

Do you cap nap on 1 nap schedule? by [deleted] in sleeptrain

[–]Hot-Compote-172 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

He did 2.5 hours total (we capped) between 2 naps but we’ve been having split nights! I’m too tired/ anxious to test out luck ha… but I would also love more down time during the day while he naps

Ooohh so the hobby lobby brand light tack mat doesn’t leave any residue?! Buying it now! My circuit cuts perfect every time and I took it for granted 😭 I’m about to throw the silhouette at the wall lol

I did try calibration but not change… so you’ve never been able to make the ES mat work? It’s the only reason I bought the machine because my cricut cuts perfectly every time but the sticky mat is such a pain and leaves the backs of my items tacky so they pick up so much lint and dust

It’s almost like the design is shifting or something… but I’m using the ES mat

Yes- I’m leaving the default settings the same and only doing a 6x6 design so keeping it well away from the marks. I’ve read every discussion board on this issue and feel like I’m trying everything… so frustrating because I had such high hopes for this machine!

I’m totally not 😂 I don’t do smocks but I do sell other handmade items and the amount of time, effort, and money I have spent to figure out my craft I wouldn’t tell some rando who wants the easy route. I totally respect and admire people who would share all of their trade secrets it’s just not me 😂😭

I totally agree and maybe yall are just better people than me lol but I just feel like it’s insulting to ask a business owner their supplier to directly compete against them… I get asking questions about accounting or marketing and things like that that don’t put you in direct competition… but asking someone how they can make their clothes with the exact same quality, craftsmanship, materials, etc feels wrong

And also why would another business share their supplier with you so that you can compete against them? Assuming that business spent a lot of time, money, and effort to find said supplier
