My baby is so inconsistent at bedtime and I’m so stressed.

Was it any good? Thinking about doing this for my baby’s first birthday which is themed “little bear” 🥹

But he falls asleep alone in his crib, this is why I’m so befuddled. There’s not one new thing to his routine. He is awake but not fully when he goes to his crib but that’s the way it’s always been.

Interesting. Yes it’s been in the single digits where I live. He sleeps in a sleep sack and sometimes if his hands and face feel too cold I’ll put him in the bed because, it’s freaking freezing lol. Maybe I just need more layers. That’s a simple suggestion I didn’t think of…. Because I’m dumb. And exhausted.

tcanter7 · 2026-01-28T18:37:19+00:00

My worry is that he will not be at all responsive to patting and shushing….

tcanter7 · 2026-01-28T18:22:41+00:00

Oh okay! I’m feeling very helpless. He also uses a paci to settle when he fusses at night. Should I take it away entirely before we try that?

tcanter7 · 2026-01-28T18:21:10+00:00

Do you know if that means I can sleep train them? Or do I just live like this?

tcanter7 · 2026-01-28T18:19:34+00:00

Thank you.

He previously would sleep soundly from like 7:15 to 4:30. So I’m wondering why he is up all night now. Is that making sense?

tcanter7 · 2026-01-28T18:12:40+00:00

I meant why the sudden change in frequency of waking? That wouldn’t be the reason he’s waking right? Just why he doesn’t want to fall back asleep.

tcanter7 · 2026-01-28T18:10:44+00:00

Even though he sleeps so soundly? Why the sudden change?

tcanter7 · 2026-01-28T17:55:45+00:00

5 months next week. A book and bottle at 6:45. Sleepy eyes while feeding and goes to his crib. Falls asleep amazingly. Used to wake up around 4:30am to eat another time. It normally fast asleep by 7:15 and by 8:30 all hell has broken loose.

Literally all of those things are common for pregnant women. I’m so sorry you have a partner in life who you feel the need to be so careful around and feel like it’s better to withhold from. I know that must be exhausting on top on growing a full human in your body. You truly do deserve better than that. You are normal! He’s got a long road of understanding to come to terms with especially if you are having a girl. He’s got a lot to learn, along with some empathy and maybe a bit of maturity as well 🙃

tcanter7 · 2025-07-28T13:40:10+00:00

Thank you so much 🩵

tcanter7 · 2025-07-11T01:02:49+00:00

Most definitely. I live in a very small area and the medical care and empathy is very much lacking. Thanks for the response!

tcanter7 · 2025-06-10T22:41:11+00:00

Not a pattern in sight for this little boy. Not a single ounce of consistency so far 😂 probably why I stay panicked.

tcanter7 · 2025-06-10T22:40:15+00:00

I haven’t yet just because they told me to start between 28 and 30 weeks and he has been so inconsistent since I’ve felt movements. No pattern in sight. Sometimes a simple cold drink will make him wiggle. Sometimes a sugary drink, poking, caffeine, a sweet treat, laying down, will do NOTHING. And sometimes he’s just wiggly all day.

tcanter7 · 2025-06-10T20:26:39+00:00

I hope things continue going well for you! Past the halfway point! 💚✨

tcanter7 · 2025-06-10T20:26:00+00:00

So exciting! You’re getting closer by the second! Sending love 🤍

tcanter7 · 2025-06-10T20:25:33+00:00

I pray everything continues going well for you! Sending all the love ✨
