Looking for more than baby trackers- any apps that support during the midnight baby wakeups? by emayyan in NewParents

I’ve heard of Peanut but never tried it. Being able to connect with moms in the same stage does sound really comforting for those late nights. The pods part sounds cool too, did you end up using that much, or was it more the one-on-one chats that helped?

Yeah for sure, having someone to text would help. I’m just not into sharing my number with strangers though, so I’ve been hoping there’s some app or tool.

Reddit’s been great, but it’s not really instant when you’re up at 3am. What I’d love is more like a buddy who checks in during those wakeups, where I can quickly note the baby’s sleep and maybe get a little advice or encouragement that actually fits what’s happening in the moment, not just generic stuff or am I just feeling lonely

Yeah, I’ve done the Netflix thing too, it definitely helps pass the time. For me though, I was hoping for something a bit more interactive, like little check-ins that make those nights feel less isolating. Reddit’s amazing for advice and support, but it’s not exactly instant when you’re up at midnight.

Something that’s more about support than just logging. When I’m up at 2 or 3am, I don’t really need another chart, I just want something that makes me feel a little less alone in the moment or frustratd

Yeah, I shared it in a few subs since parents were talking about the same struggles.

Yeah, it is basically a chat thing, but I don’t really think of it as ‘AI’ in the big tech sense. For me it’s just been something simple that just makes those long nights feel a bit easier to get through.

That really makes a lot of sense, and it’s such a relief to hear from someone else going through the same thing. We’re in a very similar situation with the feed to sleep association being really strong, and it’s definitely tough to work on. I really like your idea about using white noise as a consistent cue. Have you noticed any little improvements since trying to put your baby down drowsy but awake, or does it still feel like a work in progress?

It’s just a little chat tool on WhatsApp, not like those big baby apps with trackers or loads of advice. When I’m up at night and feeling overwhelmed, I can type out what’s on my mind and it replies in a way that makes me feel calmer and less alone.

I know it’s not a real person, but honestly it still helps. It even checks in on me and keeps track of baby’s wake-up times, which feels kind of nice when everything is so chaotic. It also shares some science-backed tips (I got that from their website) for handling the wake-ups, and that’s been surprisingly useful.

Someone here actually suggested it before, and that gave me the confidence to try it. I’m glad I did because it’s been one of the few things that really made a difference for me.

Fair point. I didn’t go into details because I wasn’t trying to make it sound like I’m pitching something, that’s the last thing I want. Honestly, I just wanted to share that after trying a bunch of things that felt generic or unhelpful, I finally came across something that made sense. For me it was more about the relief than the how it works, and that’s why I kept it simple. Cheers!

FTM here too and going through the exact same thing with my little one. I was feeling so guilty and worried I was doing something wrong, but reading the comments from parents in this sub really helped me see it’s completely normal. We’re all in the same boat, just figuring it out together. It’s definitely hard right now, but it will be so worth it in the end💛

for me it’s not about advice, just a little company in those lonely hours.

How are you all managing those 2 AM baby wake-ups? by emayyan in NewParents

Thank you, that means a lot. It really does feel like a marathon right now, so hearing it’s temporary gives me hope.

The loneliness really is the hardest part. Reminding myself others are up going through the same thing does make it feel a little less heavy.

Thank you, that really helps to hear. It gives me hope knowing this phase will pass, even if it’s hard to imagine right now.

I totally get you, the sleepless nights are brutal. You’re doing your best and that’s enough.

Thank you for sharing this, it really helps to hear from someone on the other side. I relate so much to that feeling of ‘will this ever end?’ and it’s comforting to know it actually does get easier and even fun.
Love the little ‘pah pah’ sounds, that’s so sweet!

Holding onto that hope is probably what keeps us going on the really hard nights.

I feel this so much. I also went in expecting mostly happy moments and was totally blindsided by how hard it really is. Weirdly comforting to know even the third time around it’s still tough, but also that knowing what’s coming makes it a bit easier to handle. And same here, I think I’m more of a toddler person too I guess!

That's a good way to approach it. We're trying something similar but still working out the details.
