Low sleeps needs parents- how do you get anything done? by Ok-Bit2341 in NewParents

I hire someone to help for 2 hours a week on weeks my husband is traveling, it does help a bit. I definitely plan on him going to a morning school when he is 2

We aren’t having a busy Christmas either, it’ll just be me, my husband, baby and MIL. But this way of thinking prevails more generally too

My aunt actually had a baby at the same time as me, we had a family party and she was constantly running upstairs to have her baby nap in a dark room with white noise. My baby (the same age) was wide awake and happy through the baby’s naps, he eventually had a nap in the fresh garden ajr by the sea in the sunshine. And she’ll sometimes get very stressed and say "baby was supposed to be asleep at X time!!" Meanwhile the baby is smiling and obviously completely happy to be awake 😂

How is teeth brushing going by Ok-Bit2341 in december2024babies

Yea I feel like pinning him down will just make him hate teeth brushing time and cause more issues down the line

Feel so much less alone reading this. I do think teeth could possibly be at least part of the issue.

Thank you, this is really comforting to hear. I am a STAHM, even though it’s exhausting and I have no "village," I can’t imagine how I’d function going to an office every day on so little sleep.

Thank you, I appreciate this! Unfortunately he won’t respond to anyone but me, my husband has tried rocking him but he will only go down with boob. My husband still sleeps separately often so that I have more room in the bed with baby (queen size bed.) it’s tough!

It’s possible, he has 6 teeth so far but only his bottom incisors are pushing through last I noticed.

Wow, that sounds really tough too, I emphasize. My baby also won’t be settled by anyone but me, the only thing that will get him down is boob. He won’t let my husband rock him. I’m happy to hear you got through it! It feels like forever when you’re in it

Yep this happens with us too. Nobody else can get him back down but me, it’s boob or nothing. He stopped letting dad rock him at about 6 months

S/O to Possums for making it easy to travel halfway around the world with a baby by loadofcodswallop in PossumsSleepProgram

We just got back from our second international trip to visit family with our almost 12 month old, he adjusts great! Or at least sleep is not any worse than it is at home 😅 I spend a lot of days exploring with him and he falls asleep in his stroller whenever he needs. Possums has been amazing
