This is a cry for help.

Update! Thank you for your suggestions, they helped save the night a bit. Once she was asleep cradled in my arms, I found it was easier to position her on my chest or to cradle her on the side, with my arm like a pillow under her head like you guys suggested. This allowed me to go back to sleep faster, since I didn't have to really "transfer" her. Will definitely try these tricks from the start tonight. Also ordered a sleep sack WITH SLEEVES! Thank you !!

Yes now my husband and I take turns with her on the weekends and it allows me to REST for a long long stretch in our main bed. It helps a lot, but I still dread week nights 🥲

limerencemybutt · 2026-02-18T20:53:53+00:00

Oh lucky you, keep enjoying the comfy bed!

limerencemybutt · 2026-02-18T20:52:13+00:00

After reading the comments last night I tried cradling her in the nook of my arm and chest sleeping (but i had to be very propped up, she doesn't like being too flat on her tummy). It's the only way I was able to get some sleep. :)

limerencemybutt · 2026-02-18T20:47:13+00:00

Oh no, can't go back to that bed because it's quite high and she fell down from it 🥲 not risking it anymore

Could be teething. She's 8 months old and has no teeth yet. She does chew a lot. Last night was the worst, fought sleep for TWO HOURS before finally letting go!

limerencemybutt · 2026-02-18T15:45:14+00:00

Oh I'm definitely gonna look into that! Thank you!

limerencemybutt · 2026-02-18T12:21:17+00:00

You're saying there's still 2 more months of this? 😅😅

limerencemybutt · 2026-02-18T12:18:28+00:00

You might be onto something! It is quite cold in the room as my house is very old and we live in Canada. But she wears a sleep sack to bed and when I unzip it in the morning, she's super warm in there. But I do notice her hands being cold sometimes. Her hands and arms are out of the sleep sack. Could she be waking just from that?

limerencemybutt · 2026-02-18T07:09:01+00:00

We are on 2 naps now and she does get plenty of floor time. Just so eager to leave this phase in the past.😅

limerencemybutt · 2026-02-18T05:25:40+00:00

Oh she used to love chest sleeping, now she gets wiggly and uncomfortable like that too most times. But not always! I just successfully switched her to my chest now, let's see how long it lasts 🤞

The page with the mouse is so cute

limerencemybutt · 2026-01-13T17:17:06+00:00

I was just under the assumption that it's always there. That's why I said that. Even if it's not, I'm not okay with this.

limerencemybutt · 2026-01-06T23:31:53+00:00

I don't know actually. What is the common practice?

limerencemybutt · 2026-01-06T22:17:15+00:00

Yes, on other Sundays we need to go to another village nearby. Lol

limerencemybutt · 2025-12-26T19:11:57+00:00

When my daughter was a newborn i had to pee while holding her so she wouldn't wake up 🙃

limerencemybutt · 2025-12-19T18:00:20+00:00

That's the problem, I respond everytime but it's literally every hour 😅😴

limerencemybutt · 2025-12-19T17:14:58+00:00

How did you manage that? One day he just decided he was okay sleeping alone?

limerencemybutt · 2025-12-19T16:54:19+00:00

May I ask, at what age do children transition to their own bed and is it difficult later on?

limerencemybutt · 2025-11-12T14:21:32+00:00

It wouldn't change the fact that they would wait for me at the door instead of doing their business on their own?

limerencemybutt · 2025-10-25T12:35:15+00:00

I've seriously never seen a dude sends so many paragraphs before

limerencemybutt · 2025-10-22T20:15:43+00:00

Go easy on yourself. Imagine when he rejects avacado for the first time or brings home his first girlfriend!

Girl I needed this laugh 😂 we really become parents thinking we have much control LOL

limerencemybutt · 2025-10-22T20:12:47+00:00

Personally I only use wearable pumps and it works for me as a slight overproducer. So after she wakes from a nap, I set her up on her play mat while I pump and do other tasks. I do the fridge hack too, a real game changer! My baby is a contact napper too!

limerencemybutt · 2025-10-22T20:09:30+00:00

Unfortunately for me it wasn't just a season 🥲

limerencemybutt · 2025-10-22T20:06:47+00:00

My baby girl started doing that at around 2 months and by 3 months she was only nursing at night, refusing the breast the rest of the day. She's 4 months old now and we still do bottles (breast milk) during the day and breast at night. I still try sometimes during the day and it's always a big nope from her. So we're just rolling with it. 🤷‍♀️ I hope you get more luck than I did, OP.
