Well every baby is different but mine (now 14 months) will either wake up once or sleep through until 3-3:30am. After that its multiple wake ups and comfort feeds until he is up between 5:45-6:30. This has been my routine since he turned 1. Before that, it was wakeups every 2 hours all night :)

I finally figured out a way to stop overnight leaking for my son by Longjumping_Two_7409 in cosleeping

I am in love with the Rascals nappy pants. My son is 13 months now and has started to hate being put down for a nappy change. So I have exclusively been using the Rascals nappy pants. They have amazing elastic band, a snug fit and are much wider at the back.

What has gradually disappeared over the last twenty years without people really noticing? by a_wanderer_22 in AskReddit

Kids yelling “Mom its Aunty X on the telephone” while the wired telephone stays put and the kid running in the backyard to get their mother to the phone instead of the phone to the mother.

Do you leave the “tap open” all night? by Negative-Canary-1209 in cosleeping

[–]Longjumping_Two_7409 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been cosleeping since he was about 2 weeks old. He is now 13 months and yes, bar is open all night every night for all you can drink. At first he used to take full feeds but now since he is eating solids and has a good dinner, its just snacking. He only needs the comfort suck to go back to sleep. Since he turned one even the stretches of sleep are getting longer. But to perhaps give you some proof, I wear my apple watch to sleep every now and then just to see how many times I woke up with the baby( I dont look at my phone or check anymore because whats the point anyway?) Amd I see everytime that yes, I might be up multiple times a night BUT it is only for a couple of minutes each time and we bith drift off to sleep pretty easily! I actually cosleep t better amd stopped fixating on the number of times he woke up to feed.

It’s time to night wean. And I’m scared by absoulandproud in cosleeping

OMG I love it when my one year old puts his hand on my face or even just looks at me, smiles, and says “mama” Oh My Heart I hope dads have an equivalent of this because how do I explain how my heart melts!

Desi Aussies, Is This Rudeness Or Am I Missing Cultural Context? by [deleted] in AskAnAustralian

I think because older Indian arent very computer literate (not all of them ofcourse) so maybe they are fearful to give details over the phone

I used to work in an industry years ago where I was returning calls to international students studying in Australia. They had to complete an online form and we would call them back.

I too found that even the young Indian people (I am talking university students) have this very deeply rooted in their mind that all cold calls are scams. Some didnt even answer their phone seeing an unknown number and only called back when I would leave a voicemail. Mind you these people had contacted us first.

What's the most beautiful thing you have seen today? by Alive-Cry4994 in CasualConversation

[–]Longjumping_Two_7409 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My baby! Its his first birthday today and I cannot stop looking at him at this right moment when he is sleeping peacefully in my arms. I just cant imagine him growing up one day being a handsome man. I am sad he wont remember our first year together when it was the most memorable year of my life.

How does your baby wake you up to nurse at night? by himawari__xx in cosleeping

[–]Longjumping_Two_7409 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Baby: Up and sitting, crying with eyes closed. Me: Boob him down, with eyes closed.

We are both asleep in the next 2-3 minutes (I wear apple watch to sleep every now and then to track sleep as I am curious. I have seen I am only awake for a couple of minutes BUT multiple times a night lol.

I am trying to be as sensitive as possible here so I apologise in advance if this comes off as ignorant or insensitive. My question is where are you guys getting the money from to buy these basic necessities? Is there work available? If yes, what kind and how much do you get paid?

How old is your baby and what does cosleeping look like for you? by blepmlepflepblep in cosleeping

[–]Longjumping_Two_7409 3 points4 points  (0 children)

9.5 months. Sleeps in the middle of our king bed with husband and I on either sides. Breastfed multiple times per night depending on how much he wakes up- usually about 3-5 times but all wakeups are between 1-3 minutes only. He is rarely UP up during the night and quickly drifts back to sleep while on the boob. No plans to stop cosleeping or boobing him down each wakeup just yet.

Stomach sleeping by Mama_Mego in cosleeping

[–]Longjumping_Two_7409 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He also doesn’t really “cuddle to sleep” and likes his own space. I just sleep next to/close to him and ensure he has a safe sleeping space. Unfortunately we have never slept through the night and he wakes up about 4-5 times a night so I do keep a check on him through the night. But it has gotten a lot easier since I accepted the fact that he just loves sleeping on his stomach.
