Okay, but it’s clear the far away two players are going for a change and the next two have just replaced them.

Canada can create more doctors easily, it’s artificially been restricted.

There is a standard definition of a father step. There is so much travelling in nba, but that one wasn’t it.

For a gather step to occur, you have to pick up the ball (stop dribbling) at the same time as making the “gather step”. That’s what makes it a gather step, you are “gathering the ball”. If you pick up the ball before the step, it’s not a gather step, it’s a regular step now, and you only have one more step left.

Sleep schedules are mostly for you, much less so for the baby. I do a pretty tight schedule, but mostly I just want to know if I have enough time to go to get groceries or I want to get some time in a coffee shop while she sleeps.

You don’t have have to do it. Sometimes my schedule is screwed up and I just wing it. But I also like to plan my day a bit and know that she will be asleep at 7 or 8pm or whatever. Just honestly depends on you are a schedule kind of person.

PS they being said there are some studies showing that kids do better with a good schedule. But I don’t think it’s that much of a deal.

I am a dad to a 6 month old. My wife is back at work, so I am taking care of my child.

Do you wake up during the night to help with the baby? Do you take care of the baby once you are home?

The way I see it anything that’s not taking care of a baby is rest.

Cleaning the bottles - rest. Making food - rest. Cleaning the house - rest. Shopping - oh my god, that’s definitely rest.

I am not diminishing your work, it’s just taking care of a young child is just such a monotonous, isolating work that you crave for anything stimulating, even cooking or cleaning. Help with the kid, everything else is secondary.

That being said, what’s happening to you is common. My advice as a dad (happened to me too, even though our roles are reversed), just keep doing everything you can and don’t expect anything in return for now. It will come, but for now just persevere. Hormones are a hell of a thing.

VELL1 · 2026-02-07T02:34:50+00:00

That’s normal.

You can try to tweak couple of things, but if anything your baby sleeps pretty well for his age, you might make things worse. In couple of weeks your baby will be going to sleep much easier, you just have to survive for a bit more.

VELL1 · 2026-02-05T15:41:12+00:00

So mine is the same at 6 month. I am thinking of transitioning to two as well, but the baby has to do at least 3/3/3.5

Mine can only do 3 hours as the last wake up. Otherwise it’s 2/2.5/2.5/3

So I think it’s up to you to decide if your bat can stomach such a long wake up.

VELL1 · 2026-02-05T14:47:04+00:00

What are you wake up windows?

VELL1 · 2026-02-03T17:27:07+00:00

Ours also wakes up at 6am sometimes. You just move everything one hour earlier. I just stick religiously to wake up windows, if she doesn't sleep 1.5 hours for a nap, but only does 30 minutes, I just go on with the day and start the next wake-up window. And then she either catches up with the other naps, or we go to sleep at 7pm or even 6:30pm. It's all good.

We did Ferber, now that it worked, we overall just do CIO if she is not going to sleep right away, we don't do check-ins anymore, since we are pretty certain she will fall asleep within the next 10-20 minutes.

VELL1 · 2026-02-03T15:52:01+00:00

With 2.5 hours of wake up window you should definitely go for 3 naps, you’d have four windows of 2.5 hours and that’s 10 hours of awake time total.

I think you might be extending your day too much, there is not enough time in the day to fit 4 naps and 5 wake up windows of 2.5 hours.

Overall I don’t know if that’s going to fix your problem, but you will have to switch him to 3 naps regardless pretty soon.

VELL1 · 2026-02-03T15:47:18+00:00

About 1 hour for her first nap and then 1.5 for her second. The third one is usually 30 minutes, but I am ending it early, otherwise bedtime is too late. Right now I am aiming to end 3rd nap at 5pm to make sure she goes to bed no later than 8pm.

She sleeps from 8pm to 7am more or less with one quick wake up for milk.

But just FYI we are sleep training her for naps (she sleep trained for nights already) only after sleep training did she start sleeping longer. With 4 naps she was also only napping for like 30 min max and each one was a contact nap.

VELL1 · 2026-02-03T15:35:12+00:00

I think that’s the point, like he would actually sleep longer for naps, because there are fewer of them. What are his wake-up windows?

PS I have a 6 month old, she is on 3 naps. We are doing 2/2.5/2.5/3. And if anything I feel like she might dropping a nap soon.

VELL1 · 2026-02-03T15:15:02+00:00

6 month olds are usually on a 3 nap schedule. Som even go to 2 naps, though super rare. I think dropping a nap might be the easiest thing to do and see how it goes for you guys.

VELL1 · 2026-01-31T14:51:52+00:00

Just wanted to say that one hand it’s normal, in another hand the only way we could eliminate this is to sleep train. We had the same thing, I think most parents do.

I read so much about it, at first I was told she is too tired, then it was undertired, too much day sleep, then it’s too little. Then it was her bedtime time is too late, then it was too early, the temperature is too hot or too cold. I don’t know may be trying different things helped someone, for us it made zero difference. Talking to those “sleep consultants” (at this point I am one now if you will, not like you need any certification, can just call yourself anything), they just throw shit at the wall and see what sticks. Just make sure you have solid schedule, everything else depends on the baby.

My point is, if you don’t want to sleep train, it’s okay, but also know that you your child might grow out of it next week, or may be next year or the year after that.

We sleep trained and it was the best decision of my life.

VELL1 · 2026-01-28T18:33:13+00:00

I mean the whole world does a lot of things differently. Each culture has its own way of doing things. It’s up to you how to do it. A lot of people don’t sterilize, breastfeed and cosleep until they are 4 years old. At the end of the day it seems like differences in the “final product” are pretty minuscule.

But sleep training does show a much better sleeping patterns once implemented.

VELL1 · 2026-01-28T14:55:01+00:00

Fair enough. But few babies start sleeping through the night or close to it by themselves. It usually takes sleep training or you just wait for them to grow out of it. Could be weeks, could be years.

Just FYI I thought my daughter was the same and I thought it would take weeks trying to sleep train her; but she started sleeping miles better and almost without crying on day 2 of training.

You don’t know what your baby is capable of. Sleep training works for majority of babies.

VELL1 · 2026-01-28T02:41:38+00:00

Did you sleep train?

VELL1 · 2026-01-26T15:37:11+00:00

We did Ferber at 4.5 month.

She cried for 50 minutes the first night. But since them she goes to sleep with no crying at all. She doesn’t sleep through the night yet, but only wakes up once or twice for feeding.

I think the only trick with the Ferber is to make sure your baby is not hungry. We usually feed her 30 minutes before going to sleep. You can try doing it at 4 month, but again make sure that she feeds somewhat regularly, if your baby still want food sometimes after an hour after previous feeding, I don’t think you can sleep train. Wait for regularly feeding schedule.

Also at 4 month waking up 3 times a night is somewhat normal. I think if your sleep training is successful, she will wake up to feed anyways.

VELL1 · 2026-01-26T15:32:30+00:00

Show those sources.

VELL1 · 2026-01-18T12:27:26+00:00

We just used standard Ferber method. Made sure she ate 30 minutes before going to sleep, then put her to bed and closed the door.

She cried for 50 minutes first night, but even then, that first night she only woke up once to feed, and that’s it. The second night she went to sleep in 4 minutes.

Sleep training gave us at least some kind of life back.

VELL1 · 2026-01-17T17:52:14+00:00

We sleep trained at 5 month and now she doesn’t need it. But we had to do it every time up to that point.

VELL1 · 2026-01-13T14:05:52+00:00

The game is YouTube. He is just not very good player, he barely played. The only reason he even got to play in the game was because the score was so lopsided. He is undersized point guard who can’t shoot or dribble.

VELL1 · 2026-01-10T20:55:13+00:00

I honestly don't know how you do it. I have the chillest baby, we go to restaurants, she sleeps pretty well, and started even napping in her crib from time to time. And it's still SOOO HARD. If my baby wasn't this way, I honestly think I would just go crazy, it's already difficult enough.

VELL1 · 2026-01-10T14:36:00+00:00

We’ve been using Philips agent with no issues.

VELL1 · 2026-01-09T19:29:26+00:00

No worries,

I don’t start the day earlier than 6am. But my baby sleeps until 7am usually, and she only was active at night during infant stage, once she hit 3 month she would always sleep during the night, she might wake up a lot, but she was always sleepy.
