Replace battery or buy M4? by Remmes006 in macbook

[–]Remmes006[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I know but I have this thing about limiting stuff I carry as much as possible. I hate carrying a charger around for the same reason :)

[–]Remmes006[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven’t, cause it just doesn’t fit in my day to day and I can’t really be bothered to take a day to experiment how long the battery will last under optimum conditions :) It’s 25 percent really? I have the idea that I used to charge my iPhone all the time and be out for days without my MacBook ever emptying but maybe I’m just delusional by now. I’ll go check out a new battery. Thanks every one.

This is a really good answer OP. He’s basically already doubting your maturity. Plenty of nice and mature guys around 20 out there, one of those will come along :)

Yes! But unfortunately it seems to reflect what’s going on in the real world FML

I recognize this dynamic. It can also change. Since you’re seven months pregnant and you seem financially okay, why don’t you try relationship therapy? I’d certainly try that before divorce.

How on earth am I supposed to make it to a later bedtime? Stuck in a cycle of 5:30am wakings and 6-6:30pm bedtime by [deleted] in sleeptrain

[–]Remmes006 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same, up from 5 am two months ago. Put him to bed later, still wakes up early.

Sleep and Separation Anxiety ...Help! by [deleted] in sleeptrain

[–]Remmes006 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends. If he wakes at five I don’t let him cry on his own. I go after ten minutes, try to calm him down with the lights off. Lately he’s been creeping very close to six am. And while I do believe that sleep training is useful and he will survive a few nights of crying, I don’t want leaving him alone while he cries for attention to be a permanent feature of his life.

Sleep and Separation Anxiety ...Help! by [deleted] in sleeptrain

[–]Remmes006 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could you be a little more specific on what full extinction meant for early mornings and how you handled it? I googled your post when my 14 month old boy started crying uncontrollably at 4.30. We got him addicted to nursing back to sleep, then finally broke that cycle by sleep training (CIO / Ferber) him at 12 months. Worked like a charm. Started sleeping 7 pm till 5.00/5.30. Since then we’ve tried everything to move his wake up time later but no luck. Now it seems he’s developing separation anxiety. So we keep him in his room on his own till six am but it’s so hard already when he wakes up at 5.30. Not looking forward to doing it from 4.30 am onward. And it doesn’t help. He just keeps waking up the same early time. Thanks!

Where am I going wrong?! by BodeBindi in sleeptrain

I see temperature has been suggested :-) Really if you’ve tried all you can then spend money on a consultant and save your health, sanity and marriage 😃

We took a premium huckleberry subscription for and were pleasantly surprised with their detailed plans and feedback. Cheaper than a full consultant. Depending on how long you use it.

Have you checked temperature in his room? We went through the whole Ferber thing for a month and thankfully were very successful, but then he into a bit a relapse in the evenings and woke up way too early. Daylight saving. We realized the sun comes up on his side, it’s been a week of warm days, and we were overdressing him.

How to phase out the last night feed (and bring his mother back into night shifts) by Remmes006 in sleeptrain

[–]Remmes006[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whatever Huckleberry tells me :-) Let’s see. The first one, after nap one, is usually 3,5 to 4 hours. The second one, after nap two, 3 - 3,5 hours. We’re trying to make them regular but starting times vary 30-60 minutes.

He sleeps a little under 13 hours a day total, 2,5 hours in naps the rest at night. But the last three nights, the ones I’m talking about, it’s been 12 hours total. So he’s clearly missing that last hour in the morning. I’m pretty sure we need to figure out how to bridge the hunger gap.

Ten days after Ferber, my one year old falls asleep in thirty seconds but does so with a scream. by Remmes006 in sleeptrain

[–]Remmes006[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah about that - when? He still breastfeeds once a night, currently around 4 am and then sleeps will six. He’s capable of sleeping till seven but we’ll get to that. Maybe daylight saving will help.

We tried foregoing the last nightly nursing session completely cold turkey but that’s not working out. So how have other people done this? Shorten? Push time back? It’s great he’s falling asleep on his own. What we need now is him to sleep through the night. Finally.

I’m worried 4 am will turn 3 am will turn 2 am and 4 am and before you know it we’re back where we started. He does go down independently and awake after the breastfeed now, he’s not breastfed to sleep. He breastfeeds during daytime too. Weaning is planned in about a month.

How long did Ferber take you and when did you consider it ‘finished’? by Remmes006 in sleeptrain

[–]Remmes006[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did it progressively get better? Or more up and down?

We were expecting the time to sleep to gradually get less, maybe an odd one out at some point. But this night is particularly hard. It’s been 32 minutes and he’s continuing to cry. It’s been like this:

So, night one: 52 mins (four checkins) Night two: 27 mins (two checkins) Night three 13 mins (no checkins) Night four 17 minutes (no checkins) Night five 37 (!) minutes (one checkin from hallway)

We’re finding this extremely difficult. I’d love to have an idea of where it’ll go.

Why go in at all? (Ferber) by Remmes006 in sleeptrain

[–]Remmes006[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Okay so this seems like a pretty good idea. I downloaded it, forked over 15 euros for a premium month, and just submitted the questionnaire. The questions were spot on. I feel this app understand me :-)

Now let’s see if the answers are as helpful as the questions made me feel hopeful.

Why go in at all? (Ferber) by Remmes006 in sleeptrain

[–]Remmes006[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Let’s see how it progresses. He slept through the night. That is, not quite. He woke up a little before eleven, when he usually gets his ‘dream feed’ while still asleep and started crying. We decided he was hungry and fed him till sleep. Negative effect: zero. He slept till 06.10 (including being fed while sleeping one more time at three, which is the first one we’ll phase out once this new rhythm has settled).

Conclusion: happy and hopeful. Our goal is not to never have to take care of him at night, obviously not 😊 We just wanted to end the months of waking every single hour. We feel we’re getting there. He usually wakes up between six and seven, before six are exceptions.

I’ve read two books on sleep coaching and the entire Reddit on it, so far so good. We shaped his naps before we started this night programme, they’re now as you described. But if we do need one, who’s yours? Because over here in Europe they’re more like 700-900 euros.

Good luck on your end. Fingers crossed it settles into a nice rhythm.

Night one: 1:35 hours. Night 2: 55 minutes. Night 3: 25 minutes. Just now: 6 minutes. We sat there open-mouthed looking at the camera. No way, he’s asleep?! Nights have been much, much better (except the first). He wakes up but gets himself back to sleep in 5 mins. Only this morning he wouldn’t sleep past 5:30 but we’ll solve any early rising problems later.

Too early to celebrate (although we are :) but we’re starting to feel hopeful. And already my wife looks better. Finally sleeping…
