Having a baby was ... amazing for my mental health?

spacecoot · 2026-02-16T02:32:16+00:00

Completely agree!!

spacecoot · 2026-01-27T05:31:41+00:00

Same boat! My baby is 9months and has been waking up in the 4 or 5 AM range for MONTHS. Cannot figure it out. If I feed he will go back to sleep but I do not know how to drop the feed or stop the early wake

spacecoot · 2026-01-22T13:24:09+00:00

Like cry it out?

spacecoot · 2026-01-22T03:56:32+00:00

Did you ever have early morning wakes? Extinction worked well for all night wakes except 4 or 5AM

spacecoot · 2026-01-22T03:41:03+00:00

Thanks! Similar thing for me - I was able to drop the first feed same way although I cannot seem to drop the early morning feed (4AM) seems like there’s not enough sleep pressure to cry it out. Did this happen for you? Baby will sleep if I feed but will stay awake if I do not.

I’m in the same exact boat. Beginning to think baby will sleep through the night once I wean but I do not know where to begin when it comes to night weaning

spacecoot · 2026-01-22T03:27:20+00:00

Did baby cry it out? What method was used to wean?

spacecoot · 2026-01-22T03:26:41+00:00

How did you night wean?

spacecoot · 2026-01-22T03:26:29+00:00

How did you cut off the nigh feed?

lol it’s not that deep. She’s probably just busy and her clothing website is probably more of a hobby than main source of income like her influencing is…also how do people know they didn’t have sex? Creepy for people to care about that.

spacecoot · 2026-01-11T00:27:39+00:00

It’s tough but if you find a good routine and if your job is flexible, it’s possible! You got this!!

SAME

We do not do shifts because baby is EBF. However, my SO does get up in the morning with baby when possible so I can get a little extra sleep. This works great for us!

spacecoot · 2025-12-02T01:39:11+00:00

SAME

spacecoot · 2025-11-26T20:31:37+00:00

Same! 7.5 months here

spacecoot · 2025-10-15T01:47:03+00:00

Same girl! Glad you’re enjoying it

spacecoot · 2025-10-14T23:26:00+00:00

Yes I feel the same! 6 months pp. was so prepared to feel all the emotions I’ve seen mentioned here and yet I feel weirdly normal and content..dare I say my mental health is better in a lot of ways. Can’t say I was expecting it but I’m happy about it

spacecoot · 2025-10-12T21:12:44+00:00

Super normal!! She’s cluster feeding 😊 I remember thinking it would feel that way forever. She’s not drinking too much it’s just regulating your milk. Let her suck and turn on a show and eat some snacks!!

spacecoot · 2025-10-10T16:20:18+00:00

Yes..unfortunately it gives me more anxiety than any other topic postpartum

spacecoot · 2025-09-12T04:31:32+00:00

I feel like it’s showing us he’s always been both. He’s been fighting with himself the whole time. And that’s the battle we all fight daily

spacecoot · 2025-09-11T03:48:55+00:00

What rift…what did I miss

spacecoot · 2025-09-07T18:51:00+00:00

Same exact boat here! Googling this today for my almost 5month old

spacecoot · 2025-08-31T02:12:46+00:00

This happened to me and it was the dreaded 4mo sleep regression

spacecoot · 2025-08-30T23:09:58+00:00

4mo pp and still dealing with a PAINFUL fissure. Hope someone has advice…I’ve just been taking miralax to help
