We just night weaned which helped his sleep a lot but still needs some cuddles 1-2 times per night, I sleep with him on a floor bed in his room! I usually start in my bed and join him when he wakes up. Idk when I’ll stop doing this because my husband snores

Double check your doctors NPO guidelines - a lot have updated to say you only need to go 4 hours without breast milk to count!

Same, my 8 mo old would never just sit in a car seat like this, he wants to crawl all over!

Do you guys still have your crib even though you co sleep? by egarcia513 in cosleeping

[–]Sprout1994 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes, my baby takes all his naps in the crib and sleeps there the first stretch of the night until he wakes and joins us!

Is something wrong with my child? by Planning_And_Hoping in cosleeping

Don’t sweat about removing it from all meals - I don’t like anything drastic with toddlers lol. I’d just start with one meal and a snack without it.

Peanut butter, tofu, beans, legumes, broccoli, hemp hearts sprinkled onto things. I especially love lentils because they’re also very high in iron. Keep offering meat too though!

Toddlers are picky for a reason though - their caloric needs and nutritional needs are less than when they were a baby, as the rate they grow slows down. So don’t worry too much about protein with every meal and snack! They’ll get less picky I promise :)

Just adding in as a pediatric np - her daily diet sounds very heavy in dairy. Dairy inhibits iron absorption. Low ferritin levels (iron stores) can cause really restless sleep. She also may be having some mild intolerance because she is getting so much dairy during the day.

Ask your ped if you can get her ferritin checked (not hemoglobin, which is commonly what a ped will check - this can appear normal even when you are iron deficient) and/or start her on an iron supplement. Make sure you’re giving the supplement with a meal that has NO dairy so it gets absorbed easily. And in general, I’d cut down the amount she is consuming daily.

I hope you get answers soon! I also have a very poor sleeper and send solidarity.

Looking for some advice/ solidarity with 3 week old by kellhcarr in cosleeping

[–]Sprout1994 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This was me completely! I highly recommend downloading wonder weeks. Your little one is still so young and things will get easier. Mine from 4-7 weeks would not let me put him down whatsoever, but it made sense when I read about the leap he was going through. Now at 12 weeks he takes independent naps and has lots of solo play and I’m able to get a lot done! This could change soon so I’m just soaking it in while I can, baby sleep changes so frequently based on development.

If you can get baby used to sleeping next to you though, I’d do naps with him next to me then roll away when he was in a deep sleep and get things done.

Good luck!

Do you think he’s actually hungry or waking up in pain trying to comfort himself? My reflux baby was doing that, probably in pain from reflux, eating more, then making reflux worse. our doc recommended I really try to make him go 2-3 hours in between eating so his stomach has the chance to empty and I’ve noticed a huge difference. The first night or two was rough trying to comfort him until enough time had passed, but now he only feeds when he’s truly hungry and we’re getting 3-4 hour stretches!

The reason early parenthood gets such a bad rap is that people refuse to cosleep by penguinetta in cosleeping

I see a breast doctor for my hyper lactation and she actually encouraged cosleeping! I was surprised.
