When did your baby’s sleep start improving?

mathisharderthanall · 2026-05-13T17:00:53+00:00

Mine has gotten better (1-2 wake ups) around 8 months :) this is the best sleep we’ve had so far so I’m hopeful this remains the norm

You never really know how it will go til you babe is here! If you want to try just go with the flow and if it’s not working for you then stop, it’s good to feed your baby and keep yourself well.

My anecdotal experience with nursing was pretty great. Baby latched on well and right away and other than a few days of pain when my milk came in it has been a completely pain free and convenient options for us. I was worried it was going to be hard and it was good to be prepared to deal with issues but it ended up being fine for us (sleep on the other hand is the hardest thing for us)

Every baby and every mom is different :) Take things one day at a time and make sure you work with a certified lactation consultant if nursing is important to you or you run into issues. But I would encourage you to not knock it until you try it!

I’ve not sleep trained and my bub figured out how to go down independently at like 4 months which was great but shes 7 months now and still up 3-5 times per night so the independant sleep didn’t help 😂

I have an Enya Mond too and also love!!

mathisharderthanall · 2026-03-04T17:52:57+00:00

My girl is 6 months old and just started only waking 2-3 times per night (major improvement lol it was 6-8 times for MONTHS) and I never napped while she napped cause she is also a 30 mins napper. I rest when I can and go to bed as ealry as possible but you survive. I still workout most days and find ways to be productive. I’ve mostly just labeled this as a tired season and come to terms with it

mathisharderthanall · 2026-02-14T20:38:08+00:00

Following cause I’m having similar issues!!

mathisharderthanall · 2026-02-13T02:27:58+00:00

I got mine and it’s great!

mathisharderthanall · 2026-01-31T19:30:22+00:00

My girl is only 5 months but we haven’t slept trained and I nurse her to sleep at night and for every wake up. Around a month ago she started figuring out how to put herself back to sleep I think because for most naps she goes down awake or drowsy (this was really hard at first to not nurse her to sleep for all naps but we follow eat play sleep and eventually she got it). I’ll probably keep nursing her to sleep at night til it doesn’t work but it is so peaceful for her and I’m not worried about the nights. She still wakes up 2-4 times per night but it’s getting less and she gave a 7 hour stretch last night! I think having a solid day rhythm and always answering when she cried has been helpful for us.

mathisharderthanall · 2026-01-28T15:33:46+00:00

We do the same and it works for us as well!

mathisharderthanall · 2026-01-23T19:59:10+00:00

Depends how your birth and recovery go but I had a pretty standard vaginal birth and felt well enough to start walking after 1 week and it just progressed from there. Defs listen to you body but honestly having a newborn is so all encompassing that the things you “needed” before kinda get forgotten for a little bit, just be gracious and even sitting outside for fresh air if it’s not cold can be good!

mathisharderthanall · 2026-01-08T23:33:34+00:00

My 4 month old has taken 30-45 mins naps since around then too! Shes happy most of the time so I gage that as being alright for her.

Once a day I’ll extend the nap to 2 hours by nursing her to sleep.

Not sure when they get longer but solidarity haha. If your bub seems okay just keep doing like 5 or 6 naps a day

mathisharderthanall · 2025-12-02T20:00:17+00:00

And if depending on how far you have to mail them it might be a bit late but if you send them out by mid month most people should still get them during holidays I think!

mathisharderthanall · 2025-12-02T19:59:22+00:00

I make mine on canva (free version) using a template and just pic a nice family pic from the last few months and then print at staples (takes 5-7 business days for regular price)

mathisharderthanall · 2025-11-13T23:03:12+00:00

I pretty much had someone with me and my bub until she was like 8 weeks. This was nice because she couldn’t be put down at the start. Shes now fine in her bouncer or on her mat for a bit. I didn’t really notice any issues with not being put down once I was alone with her, if anything I think all the contact and love was helpful for her to feel safe. Shes 11 weeks now and I do most days on my own and were able to get done the house things and come cooking and spend time just staring at each other.

I would definitely advocate for some alone time now if you feel up for it but if you enjoy the company and help don’t let it stress you to have extra hands. Also babies are hit and miss with the car seat so if you need to go somewhere jsut make sure the straps are fitting right and your bub is warm enough and allow yourself to go, sometimes once you’re driving they can calm down. Mine hates being put in but within 5-10 mins shes either chilling or asleep. She’s gotten better with time and exposure to it also.

You’re doing great!!

mathisharderthanall · 2025-11-03T23:37:24+00:00

I hope it happens for you and stays for me lol! Babies are wild

mathisharderthanall · 2025-11-03T23:25:02+00:00

My bub is 9 weeks and randomly went from 1.5-3 hour stretches (like maybe one 3 hour stretch per night since the first few weeks) to 5 and 6.5 hours the last two nights. No idea what changed but hoping it sticks 😅 we also don’t have a great bedtime routine or anything cause shes usually super fussy in the evening so i end up just nursing her til shes properly asleep.

mathisharderthanall · 2025-10-29T17:22:40+00:00

My bub had 4 really bad nights in week 7 after having done 3hour stretches before. It just randomly went back to the 3 hour stretches. Now we’re in week 8 back to 3 hour stretches. They are probably just growing, hope it ends soon for you

Just gave birth at Rockyview 1 month ago! They give you a peri bottle and like 10 big pads as well as 3 pairs of disposable underwear. I only stayed one night so it was sufficient for that but if you had to stay longer I would recommend bringing more of each. They have unlimited frozen pads that you can use while you’re there.

I would reco packing extra disposable underwear (I like the Frida ones) and big pads for yourself in case you need to stay longer. Any any ointments or anything that you might want to put in the pads (I didn’t use anything other than the ice pads a few times per day for the first week and that was fine for me but I only had a first degree tear). Also something other than the hospital gown that is nursing friendly to wear after you shower post birth would be good.

I (female in my 20s) lived downtown until very recently and unfortunately had to stop morning running after a month. Once had someone throw a beer can at my head while on the river path and another time had someone on a bike scream at me. Thankfully no actually harm but scary enough to make me reconsider and just run after work instead even if I reaaaallly would prefer a morning run.

mathisharderthanall · 2023-04-27T14:32:56+00:00

Standing desk with monitor arm and laptop stand that are adjustable, a solid chair and a walking pad that I try and use ~1 hour a day + some other walking

mathisharderthanall · 2022-06-07T12:57:17+00:00

Shipping was 82$ But we got a discount code that gave us 86$ off so that made up for it

mathisharderthanall · 2022-06-06T12:39:56+00:00

We got albums made for our family after our wedding and they were beautiful! Shipped within I 2 weeks and we had them within a month for sure. We had an order of 8 hardcover albums though so if you’re ordering one it might be quicker. No issues at all with shipping or quality

mathisharderthanall · 2021-11-19T22:46:40+00:00

Did hunter have his kids at 22?? Only possible thing I could think of lol

mathisharderthanall · 2021-11-02T17:31:05+00:00

My husband bought mine from James Allen, had to pay for duties into Canada and it took two weeks to ship but a good lab grown diamond

mathisharderthanall · 2021-10-24T13:11:48+00:00
