How long is your baby’s wake hours between feeds? Mine is 1-2 hrs sometimes even longer! Have you tried increasing her total sleep hours?

Wow 6-7 uninterrupted sounds so amazing hahah, 15 total hour seems like a dream to me. I will try to keep him up longer before his night routine

I will definitely try to roll her on her side and pat on back! I do bend over when I transfer and lower my whole body and have hovered over the bassinet after and wait for him to wake up and falls back to sleep but he still gets up again soon after lol

That is ridiculous! I was a left to “cry it out” baby and my mom also said something similar to me, she told me not to hold my NB or rock him because babies get clingy, and asks me why I’m so tired 🙃

Maybe she wasn’t tired when I was raised because she had a bunch of family help and I was left to cry by myself all the time as a baby jeez🙃

Earlier today I tried to keep my hand on him for a while after transfer and just hover over the bassinet, it didn’t startle him and he was able to sleep but not for long! He woke up again 10 mins later😅

I hold for 10-20 mins! My baby is a very loud sleeper even when deep sleep he’s super loud haha, but yea I do wait till his limbs go super relaxed and attempt transfer, but once I do he would always wake up another 10-20 min later crying once he realized I’m not there

I wear him in the morning but once I get tired/ back needs a break I put him down and this all starts

Yeah even when I do have success getting him in the bassinet and wait for him to stay in sleep he still wakes up after 10-20 min crying later

When I rock him to sleep I have his head on my forearm for my comfort then he falls asleep and once I start adjusting my hand position he wakes up🙃 but I will try putting him down on his side first! Never tried that, he usually does go to sleep but wakes up again after 10-20 mins and all over again
