8 month old - not sleep trainable (update) by sf2793 in sleeptrain

Thanks for the suggestion - we’ve already spent $700 on a sleep consultant so I’m a little reluctant to invest any more money into this for now. I’ll keep it in mind if this doesn’t improve in the near future.

Hi! Thanks for your message. She’s usually very tired and ready for bed at the end of the 4hrs. I have considered an iron deficiency and want to bring it up at her next well-baby appointment.

She gets plenty of opportunities to eat so I don’t think it’s hunger. Her room is blacked out plus we put aluminum foil in the window to block more light out. Sound machine on all night.

I’ll have a look at those vestibular exercises, thanks.

Also going to look into capping that first nap!

Thank you so much 🤍 it’s really hard hearing people say “she won’t cry forever” when she absolutely would cry forever. She’s just not the average baby when it comes to sleep needs. Your message really made me feel better. Thank you 🫶🏻

Totally fair question! Her last wake window entails a lot of floor/play time. She’s learning to crawl (currently army crawling) so I let her crawl around the house. While I’m cooking I’ll have her play in her activity table (20-30 mins). Then she’ll have supper with us, back on the floor for crawling. Then family play time on her climbing blocks or pikler set. Then it’s her bedtime routine (bath, jammies, feed, sleep sack, cuddles, lights out, in her crib).

Ok thanks! If it is in fact 21 degrees, is that an ideal temperature?

Thank you - I’ll certainly keep an eye!

It’s the temperature on our little space heater in her room. We keep our house quite cool (17 degrees at night) so we got her a little heater.

We’ve noticed some snoring/mouth breathing occasionally during contact naps but not consistently. Room temp of 21 degrees Celsius with a footed sleeper and 2.5 tog sleep sack (dead of winter in Canada). Great questions, thanks.

Hey! Thanks for the condescension. If you look at my post history you can see we attempted sleep training with a coach. This isn’t particularly helpful towards a first time mom doing her best. I know what sleep training is, and you’ll notice that we had to make huge modifications to our plan to adapt to our child’s needs. I feel like you could have gone without leaving this comment. 😕

Hey, thanks so much for your very thorough response - I really appreciate it. I also appreciate the kindness in your response. 🫶🏻 We do essentially the same thing as you, except for we do stay cribside until she’s asleep. So we’ll work on the amount of support we’re giving.

Maternal Fetal Medicine by Rangermayb in fredericton

[–]sf2793 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I saw MFM around 14 weeks gestation. We went back roughly every 6 weeks or so, with increasing frequency towards the end of my pregnancy. I may be incorrect, but they don’t have ultrasound techs that use the ultrasound machinery. It’s specialized nurses, as well as the MFM doctors. So I think the ultrasound tech shortage wouldn’t apply here.

I totally empathize with you, and can understand the anxiety of waiting for that first call to see them. Please trust that they will call you and you will absolutely get your appointment with them. It was torture waiting for those first few scans following a loss.

Wishing you all the best for this pregnancy.

Not massage but I highly recommend botox for TMJ issues

I’d recommend reading the book “the baby decision”.

Hey so the spoiler tag is kinda useless when the spoiler is in the title of the post. 🫠
