I’m a few weeks out from welcoming baby #2 and will have a 21 month old who is very clingy, not a great sleeper, and my whole world. I’m scared to death. I want to protect him. I want to make sure both are given the most attention.
Also any advice on recovering from a c-section with a toddler ?
I’m a recent SAHM with 8 weeks until baby 2 is here. My 19m old wakes up every night 3-4 hours after initially being put in crib and no matter what I cannot get him back in the crib so have to sleep in rocking chair or guest room which is getting veryyyyy hard being this pregnant and uncomfortable. Also insomnia is starting so I’m literally not sleeping at allllllll
We can’t do CIO sleep training we tried and it broke our hearts
And do you wake them up or do you wait for them to wake up on their own
We have a 19m old and a baby coming in 2 months. Currency read books then rock til sound asleep before transferring g to crib. He usually sleeps through the night but has had a bad regression the last few weeks and is up all night and wants to sleep on me. I’m first week of being a SAHM and worried about how to manage nap time if it takes 30-45 mi s sometimes with a failed transfer and a contact nap when baby is here and also needs me
We tried CIO tonight and I failed the second check in I broke down in tears his cheeks were on fire he couldn’t catch his breath and get was grabbing me saying please mama I sleep as if I put him in the crib to punish him 😭
Our LO has been a great sleep with the normal regression but we have always rocked him to sleep with a bottle for nap and night but we are 10 weeks away from having a newborn and I won’t be able to commit to 30-60 mins of rocking and sometimes I fail and he’ll have to sleep on me. But lately at night he’s been waking up multiple times and woke let us put him back in the crib it’s miserable we get like 2 hours of sleep. My hubs and just tried to sit next to the crib and he lost his shit and started throwing himself against the crib I’m worried about this…
How annoying can they get? I’m on day 2 of being a SAHM and unfortunately am also very sick and very pregnant and my husband keeps making comments
“You going to go to the park today with mama”
“What’s wrong with that boy”
“He used to eat breakfast why aren’t you feeding him” (he refused to eat today)
“Why do you have to order food you don’t work he needs to get out of the house”
It’s only day two you guys …. I feel bad enough that I’m sick but going to the dr just for them to tell me they can’t help me bc I’m pregnant …
He also starts work around 9/9:30 after waking up after me and going to the gym. The only chores he’s ever done are trash and unloading dishwasher. He’ll get our son up for the day on a weekend maybe once a month and I have to ask … he’s a great dad but very much doesn’t see what needs to be done and will do it he’s has to be told
