Will A Baby Crying Themself To Sleep Develop Personality Issues In The Long Run???I know people have different opinions when it comes to a Baby sleeping. but i am a nanny and i have an issue. i had the Baby on a Sleep schedule. sometimes i would put the Baby down for a nap and he will fuss then fall asleep a minute later. the mother walks the Baby to Sleep on the weekends and tells me that babies crying themselves to Sleep will mess up their personality in the long run. I do not believe in letting a Baby cry for too long but if you ask me, it is important for a Baby to learn to sooth themselve to sleep. i have tried to walk him to Sleep and it just doesn't work. he thinks it's play time:-) someone let me know what you think please [ Read More ]

Seven Month Old Baby Sleep Issues?Hello, My close to 7 month old son wants to Sleep a lot. He gets a good 10 hour Sleep at night, but still wanted to Sleep within a couple of hours after he wakes up.

Baby Sleep Issues!!! BIG TIME!!!?This may be a little lengthy, so please forgive. I have a nine month old daughter every night since the day she was born, she's had the same bedtime routine. Bath, massage, cuddle, book, bed (by nursing). In the beginning she did really good and slept almost all through the night, even at 3 months (minus the night time feedings.) Now all of the sudden everything has changed and I'm at my wits end. I've never been so tired. I've gone the last 3 days running off of 3 hours of sleep. She naps during the day for 10 min durations and that's once at noon. She is teething but she gets a dose of tylenol and night time Baby Oragel. I can't figure out what is going on!!! Any ideas on how to get her to Sleep or what changes need to be made let me know PLEASE!!! She goes to Sleep just fine, but she wakes up an hour later and stays up until 6 in the morning, then sleeps for another couple hours waking at 8:30. And then it's almost all day. Please help, I'm begging for any answers, I've consulted my Doctor and he says there is nothing wrong with her and this could just be a phase, if anyone could elaborate I would be very happy!!!!! Exhausted, and Empty Mother..... [ Read More ]

Baby Sleep Issues. My 7 Mo Will Not Take Her Nap?My daughter is 7 months old now and just over the past couple of days has decided that she will NOT take any nap during the day after 8am. She wakes up at 5:30, goes to bed at 5:3-6. She used to nap 3 good times a day, now she just won't go to sleep.

He cant Sleep without being rocked, without a bottle in his mouth, or being held by someone. Is this normal? How do i get him to Sleep without him relying on these things all the time? Should i just let him cry when he is tired to get him to learn how to get to Sleep on his own? [ Read More ]

My Baby Has Sleep Issues?My daughter is ten months old and she's right at walking. She likes to kick and play throughout the day and she used to go to bed when it was bedtime and take her naps on time when she started getting grumpy. But now within the past few weeks she's started acting differently at bedtime. I always hold her and rock her till she dozes off then I lay her in her crib and she sleeps through the night but now she'll notice that she's dozing and wake up and start bouncing and giggling and when I try to put her in her crib for Sleep she'll kick and bounce and kick the side of her crib. Is this just another stage of development? What do I do? [ Read More ]

6 Week Old Baby Girl Having Sleep Issues......?O.k. I know a lot of you are going to read this and think how dare me for going back to work. Anyways........I was off for my 6 week maternity leave and I had my Baby on a good schedule as far as, she would Sleep for 2 or 3 hours, wake up to feed and I would change her diaper and play w/her for an hour, then she would fall asleep for 2 or 3 hours. We did this all day and all night. Now that I have started work this week, she is going to grandma's house in the morning from 8:30a.m. to 5:30p.m. It is difficult for grandma to get her to nap. She takes really short naps for like 15 or 20 minutes a couple times a day and that's it. Well, when I get her home, she falls asleep at like 6p.m and doesn't wake up until 11p.m. then i feed her, change her, play w/her, and she falls back asleep for another 4 or 5 hours. Then I have to drag her off to grandma's all over again. She is eating great, using the bathroom great, and she is not that fussy. Is this normal? [ Read More ]

10 Month Old Sleep Issues - My Baby Nurses All Night And Wakes Up Every Few Hours.?My son is 10 1/2 months old, he's been sleeping with me since he was born. He wakes up several times at night to to nurse and it's driving me mad! He won't Sleep in his crib alone as he looks for my breast constantly. I'm so tired and I just want him to be a little more independent in the nighttime hours! Does anyone have any intelligent personal experience they can share with me? Please don't suggest cry it out - I don't like the idea of it as it is and I already tried it anyway to no avail! Thanks for your time. [ Read More ]

Baby Sleep And Gas Issues. Help? Suggestions?How can I keep my 4 month old son sleeping nicely during the night? He has no problems going to Sleep when it's bedtime after our routine. He wakes up once an hour fussing. Someone told me that it could be gas. I have some mycolin drops coming on mail order as they don't have them where I live. Do they really help? I've tried gripe water, tummy massage, pushing his legs against his belly (sometimes hilarious results), and not feeding him at night unless I knew he was hungry (which he was ok with a few times) Right now I'm so desperate to have him sleep, I put him in his swing in the bedroom. I know I'm supposed to but he needs Sleep and so do I. Yea, he's like that during the day too. He doesn't have acid reflux; we tested for that when he was 6 weeks. He likes chewing on his teethers we bought and his fingers. He sleeps in our room as we don't have an extra bedroom for him. http://www.calm-your-screaming-baby.com/soothing-sounds.html <--- this would be a safer alternative to the hairdryer. I forgot. There is some stuff here called Minifom which removes the bubbles from the milk but I stopped using it due to it having estrogen in it. [ Read More ]

2 Month Old Baby Sleeping Issues.?My 2 month old Baby has been sleeping in her bassinet for awhile now. I've been trying for atleast 3 weeks now to transition her into her crib with strict routine such as giving her a bath, then feeding her, reading her a book and rocking her til she's slightly sleepy and putting her in her crib, also playing comforting music for it. It's not she's not comfortable in her room because I've played with her in there constantly and even given her naps in there but as soon as I walk out of the room, she fusses and cried and refused to Sleep in her crib. She's too young to cry it out so I try to sooth her in her crib without picking her up but it doesn't work. I usually give up around 3 am(which I put her in her crib around 7, 7:30) and she falls right asleep. Anyone have any ideas or comments? She does Sleep through her night in her bassient she sleeps for a good 6 hours. Everyone tells me not to rock her to Sleep bc then she will get dependent on being rocked to sleep. but I put her in her bassient slightly drowsy and she knocks out cold. It's like she just hates the room. but she always wakes herself up in the bassient because it's slightly too small..and she does enjoy naps in her crib since she has more room. it's just like she wants to know she's sleeping in the same place I am. I dunno. she's too young to know that lol [ Read More ]
