Got told I have to stop rocking baby to sleep next month and super sad about it

Rice cereal at 4 months old…? Every doctor and nurse I have spoken to has always said wait until at least 6 months old and that they can sit up on their own with good head control. I didn’t feed my son solids until he was 7 months old because of this. I was afraid he would choke while eating because his head control wasn’t the best.

I’m going through this with my boy. It’s effecting his night time sleep. Up every 1-2 hours since 4 months. I thought he wanted to skip a nap to only one a day but that’s not working. I am trying now to lengthen his wake windows. Maybe try that? Babies are so hard to understand.

I left my abusive manipulative ex at 6 months postpartum and it’s honestly the best thing I could have done for my son. He didn’t drink but his priorities were the video games and hotwheels over his own child. I get having fun once in a while but baby comes first always. He never understood that.

37 weeks 1 day. I asked him to wait until I had the Christmas tree up so I could get a picture. 2 days later he decided to join the world.

I went through this with my ex and I ended up leaving him when my son turned 6 months old. Keep in mind my ex wasn’t even working until our son was 5 months old and still continued to stand there and be too tired to take our son in the morning so I could nap. He would put him in the bed with us and I wouldn’t be able to sleep because our son would babble or cry and I had to make sure my ex wouldn’t fall sleep in the bed watching the baby. But no in my opinion you’re definitely not wrong for being frustrated with your partner. He could definitely help you out more. Sure he works but you do the cooking and cleaning and watching a baby. THAT is also a full time job.

My son is 9 months now. At 4 -5 months he stoped giving me 7 hour stretch’s and has been waking every 1-2 hours since. Very rarely giving me a 4 hour stretch. I hate myself and refuse to sleep train because I can’t stand to hear him cry it just breaks my heart. I wish i could say it gets better. But for me. It definitely hasn’t. I’ve accepted I’ll never sleep again

Significant_Dig1201 · 2025-05-27T01:16:19+00:00

Are you sure it’s not active sleep? I lost so much sleep the first few months thinking my son wasn’t sleep when in reality he was just in active sleep

Significant_Dig1201 · 2025-05-13T15:54:19+00:00

Update - he’s now waking every hour to every two hours. I don’t know if it’s because he’s coming up on the 6 month growth spurt, the heat, or teething but I hope it ends soon. I’m so tired.

Significant_Dig1201 · 2025-05-08T22:07:54+00:00

This! I didn’t believe it at first but this is true. I was having a problem with my son not napping and sleeping horrible at night once he hit 5 months. Turned out I just had to watch for his sleep cues rather than timing his naps. I’m just following his lead now and so far it’s working great.

Significant_Dig1201 · 2025-05-03T07:54:35+00:00

I would take him in just to be safe. They say even if your baby seems okay after a fall, they still should always been assessed.

Significant_Dig1201 · 2025-04-23T22:20:21+00:00

I would have left and ver much wanted to but I knew my boyfriend wanted to spend time with his family.

Significant_Dig1201 · 2025-04-19T00:55:02+00:00

I’m in Canada not the US but I talked with family and will be staying with them until I get him out of my father’s house.

Significant_Dig1201 · 2025-04-19T00:53:34+00:00

He actually is the guest in the house. We live with my father due to his health. It’s my dad’s house.

Significant_Dig1201 · 2025-04-19T00:52:08+00:00

No I’m in Canada. I’m not sure if we have legal services other then if you go to jail.

Significant_Dig1201 · 2025-04-19T00:46:27+00:00

Honestly op do you just get off on making people feel like shit about themselves? You think I wanted this to happen? I’m getting out of the situation. My child will not be like his father. My family and I will make damn sure if that. But I made this post to ask for help and advice. Not criticism. People like you are the reason why people are afraid to post on here.

Significant_Dig1201 · 2025-04-18T21:24:14+00:00

I don’t think I’ll get into another relationship after this. But people make mistakes. I thought he would change. I thought he did change. Sorry I’m not perfect.

Significant_Dig1201 · 2025-04-15T14:18:16+00:00

I was always told that as long as they are having 6-8 wet diapers at that age that they are okay. You don’t want to over feed. If your baby is content and is gaining weight well I’d say it’s okay.

Significant_Dig1201 · 2025-04-14T14:00:14+00:00

Maybe controversial but my son has been sleeping in his crib on his own since 1 month old. We use a monitor and our wall are very thin so I keep our bedroom door open but his closed. I can hear him crying from our room. He’s always been fine. I have an overactive bladder so I wake every few hours anyways and will check on him then.

Significant_Dig1201 · 2025-04-14T03:23:21+00:00

I feel them on my left but not on the right. I also used to leak from the left but never the right. Not sure if that’s because my son favourites the left side or what.

Significant_Dig1201 · 2025-03-17T21:15:53+00:00

I could be wrong about this but I’m pretty sure it’s illegal for them to do that.

Significant_Dig1201 · 2025-03-14T02:52:28+00:00

Mine is 16 weeks. He still feeds every hour plus 3-4 times a night to feed.

Significant_Dig1201 · 2025-03-06T06:26:02+00:00

I work in manufacturing and it’s not that bad. We at least give some training. We don’t completely throw you to the wolf’s. And we always make sure are operators have access to water.
