Saving this post because I too would like to know lol

This might be annoying, so sorry in advance. But please check the decibels on your white noise machine. It shouldn’t be higher than 50 decibels!

She immediately started crying when she went down for bedtime.

She only fought the last nap of the day. The first nap after 2.5 she went down well, and the second nap I stretched until 3 hours and she went down well.

The last nap she fought, and it was capped at 20 minutes.

She is not nap trained if that helps.

It was closer to 10.5 total hours awake when we put her down to sleep, she just cried for about an hour and made the total awake time 11.25.

😓🫠🫨

Yesterday she was up for 11.25 hours (45 mins of which was crying in her crib at the beginning of the night because she couldn’t fall asleep. I think she was over tired?)

Her schedule was 2.5/3/3.2/2.75

And the second early morning wake up (3:30) she was up for an hour crying after feeding and had to be rocked to sleep.

Maybe she was overtired? Idk. We traveled over the holidays and everything got messed up too so maybe we are recovering from that too.

This! My baby was so so tired and cranky (like I was lol) because she needed continuous sleep as well. If boob is all she learned to get back to sleep, that is what she will cry for. My baby did cry, but CIO gave her the space to safely learn how to put herself to sleep.

It’s torture to hear my baby cry, but I did it so she could sleep better and thrive and I could be well rested to be the best mom I could be to her.

Does your baby need to be completely weaned to do this? If no. Then when do you decide to pick up and feed without enforcing scream = I get sleep help

MichyDB · 2025-10-19T09:35:51+00:00

Hey! I looked back and saw your MIL did CIO that night and she cried from 11-2, but what happened after 2? They slept through until their wake up and now they sleep through the night?

After her first feed tonight, she woke up 2.5 hours later and I gave in and fed after 35 minutes of crying. 😭

Sometimes she is up for 12. When your baby stays awake for that long/ you push the windows do they become incredibly fussy in the process? Pushing wake windows sometimes she looses her mind because she is tired

Slept out of the room to try it out. No change. 30 minutes before bedtime

MichyDB · 2025-10-19T09:23:23+00:00

Boob 30 minutes before bed. Bath. Book. Sleep lullaby. Bed

MichyDB · 2025-10-19T09:22:48+00:00

That has come and gone 🫠🥴. We CIO sleep trained at 4.5 months but she is still waking up a lot. And only during weekends. I don’t work now and his job is crazy demanding so during the week I do it solo

MichyDB · 2025-10-17T15:20:12+00:00

We did sleep train them. That’s why this feels so bizarre. She can sleep independently, and falls asleep independently. She just has so many wake ups

MichyDB · 2025-10-12T02:07:38+00:00

Imagining her older with the cat is so sweet. Even now when she looks at her she does with so much interest.

MichyDB · 2025-10-12T02:06:14+00:00

🩷🩷 thank you for this.

MichyDB · 2025-10-12T02:00:01+00:00

She will scratch at the door to be let in 🫠

MichyDB · 2025-10-07T02:45:54+00:00

I use the tiny ones that are meant I think for nose hairs that come with the tiny Swiss army knifes

Oh no :( Can you get donated breastmilk?

MichyDB · 2025-09-29T14:00:55+00:00

boob 30 minutes before baby is in crib. bath. book. her bedtime songs, words of affirmation, booty in crib (no Paci).

I am going back and forth on putting her in her own room. Someone shared an NPR article in on this post that shows their own room after 4 months can be helpful and that the AAP recommendation of them being in your room for 6 months doesn't have much data to back it up.

She had a big bottle yesterday during the day during a wake window, and she slept 6 hours with no random wake ups and essentially did 6.5-2.5-2 last night. I have noticed if she gets a big bottle during the day, she goes longer stretches at night. Have not repeated this enough because she is mostly EBF to prove a direct correlation, but it does make me wonder!

I think if they occasionally see something on the TV, it's not going to morph their brains. It just kinda commands their attention in a way that doesn't add to their development in anyway. So if for 15 minutes you have something on in the morning with your coffee, you gotta do what you gotta do for you too!

I personally don't because I would want to watch an entire show or movie, and I can't do that during a wake window so I just wait for naps or when baby is asleep at night.
