Baby Sleep Problem...PLEASE PLEASE Help!!!?My son is 5 months and has never been a great sleeper...His cot is right next to our bed and I always end up taking him in the bed next to me just for the peace, but I am trying to break the habbit...he goes to bed about 8 and sleeps about 3/4 hours, until we go to bed about 11/12 and always seems to wake up around this time, when he sees that we are there he wont go back to Sleep untill I take him next to me..believe me I have tried to leave him but it doesnt work!! Even when I take him next to me now he is waking up every 2 hours, and will only go back to Sleep if I breastfeed him...I know its a comfort thing... I just dont get why he wakes up every two hours, I dont think he is hungry as he is on solids now, 3 times a day along with formula milk...I only really breastfeed at night now or if he wants a 'snack'...please can someone tell me what I am doing wrong??! I keep thinking he might Sleep better in his own room? But I never planned on moving him in this early.. Thanks :) forgot to add...we try to have bedtime routine, bath, give him his bottle in bedroom with lights off, put his music mobile on etc...just dont know what else I can do!! [ Read More ]

Pls HELP :Baby Sleep Problem?okay- so I'm not sure if this situation is unique .My girlfriends think it is ! My 5 month old co-sleeps with us. She sleeps through the night BUT moves a LOT during the night. She moves as if she is swimming. I feed her at 10 p.m. when I put her to bed, then at 1:a.m. and then at 6 a.m. Everytime she moves, I hold her, she calms down and then again in 30 mins she starts moving her arms and legs as if she is swimming. I did some research online and found few blogs which insinuate that this happens to babies in phases- although there is no real examples behind it. Anyone experienced this? Thanks One more peice of info- during the night she NEVER opens her eyes..she just swims with closed eyes! [ Read More ]

Does My Baby Have A Sleep Problem?My son falls asleep by himself in his crib, but then wakes up every two hours crying. For the first 6 hours we can usually put his soother back in his mouth and he falls right back asleep. After this, the interval gets shorter and eventually we cave in and bring him to bed, where he continues to wake up, gets his soother and then falls back asleep. So I am assuming my Baby has a Sleep problem, but all the literature I have read refers to babies who cannot fall asleep without being picked up and comforted for a while. I guess the soother does that job for us, so perhaps its the same thing. Do we need to turn to Ferber, or are there other less drastic measures? [ Read More ]

Why Do So Many People Have A Problem With Your Baby Sleeping In The Same Bed As You?A lot of poeple I've talked to say never to start that because you'll have a hard time with trasitioning them back to sleeping by themselves. My Baby has been sleeping in the same bed as us since he was born and he's 9 months now. Almost everyone I've talked to said they did the same thing and there was no Problem getting them to Sleep by themselves. Who is against it, and why? Who is for it, and why? [ Read More ]

How Much Does Your Baby Sleep During The Day?My daughter is now 5 months old and she generally takes about 2-3 naps during the day, totalling 3-4 hours in all. I've noticed that sometimes at night she won't want to go to bed if she has slept more than usual during the day. I realize that all babies differ as far as how much Sleep they need and whether that interferes with their nighttime Sleep but I am just curious how many naps your Baby takes and for how long. My 15 month old takes one 2-3 hour nap per day and has no Problem sleeping at night. Thanks in advance. [ Read More ]

6 Month Baby Sleep Problems?I am completely open to methods from all mothers who have managed to get their 6 month old to Sleep through the night. My son is so great during the day. A total angel. Sleeps with no help for naps at 10, 1 and 5 like clockwork. I've started to introduce some rice to his diet as well as full time breast feeding and he's loving food. Even at 7:30pm, when he rubs his eyes, he's really easy to make fall asleep in his crib. The Problem is that he gets up every 40 minutes to an hour and a half crying. He used to Sleep perfectly for 4 hours and then wake the next 3 hours and again 3 hours later for feeds. Now that he's 1 week from 6 months he's such a bad sleeper. What I'm doing now is running to him as soon as he starts crying and then i put my hand on his back, put the soother back in his mouth, tell him 'it's ok and you're just going to sleep, sweetie' and he's out like a light... at least for 40-90 minutes. It's exhausting and if I could just get more than 2 hours Sleep I would be so happy. He still eats every 4 hours during the day and the night and will gear towards weening him off the breast but in the meantime I'd be happy with getting up every 4 hours instead of 40 minutes. Please mothers... share your success stories. I've read TONS on ferber, Baby whisperer's PU/PD method etc.... Right now I just let him give me cues but it's getting me up every hour. It's making me a zombie during the day.... THANKS! UPDATE: Yesterday he only had 2 naps. One short in the morning and 2 hour nap at 3. Then i fed him tons of rice cereal which he is loving and then breast fed him before bed. He slept for a couple of hours and woke up crying. I put in his soother and turned him on his tummy and he was out. Then continued to wake up every hour. I did the same thing. Soother, loving pat then he is out like a light. So now I'm realizing he can't soothe himself back to Sleep and needs the soother. So do I now not give him the soother and force him to cry it out until he learns or is this just temperary and he will learn to Sleep longer? it's definitely all about the soother!! [ Read More ]
