Hello everyone! At the end of this month me and my little family will be moving. Has anyone here moved while sleep training? If so how did it go? Any tip for a smoother transition for baby? Any advice is welcome :)
Age: 8 months
Naps: 2h30mins total capped
Ww: 3.25/3.5/3.5 - were also playing around with ww to see if she needs more awake time but this is a baseline
Wakes around 630-715am. Head in bed around 745-815pm
Hi all! I was wondering if any of you have experienced this.
My baby within the last maybe 2 weeks hasn’t been wanting the bottle during her last wake window. We recently started combo feeding with formula about a month ago and she took to that fine but just in case it was the formula she wasn’t liking I tested it out by giving her a bottle of just breast milk tonight and she still refused. She only had 2 oz this last ww. Other than those 2oz she last ate around 4pm while I was trying to save a nap. I nursed her during that time so I’m not sure how much she had but I believe it was a good feed. It’s currently 830pm so a good chunk of time has gone by since that.
A little more info
Age: 7.5 months
Trying to wean off nursing and do just bottles.
Baby has always been a snacker. Never takes more than 4 oz. She usually takes 2-3oz max. This morning was the first time she actually took 5.5oz in one sitting. The past two days she’s maybe had 18oz total each day and that’s on the high end. I try to do 3oz when she wakes from a nap and 3oz before her nap but majority of the time it doesn’t work out that way and I’m basically feeding on demand just with a bottle.
We have started solids and she has 2-3 meals a day and she loves to eat real food.
Baby is on the smaller end so I’m a bit worried. maybe I should take this to the pediatrician? I was just hoping someone could let me know they’ve gone through the same thing and it maybe is normal and I’m over thinking it.
If any other info is needed I’d be happy to share! Any advice or info is welcome

Hello again!
Over night baby woke up around 130. After ~20 mins of fussing I went in and fed her then put her back in crib and she fussed until ~3. In total she got ~9h30mins of night sleep when she usually gets 10-11h a night. Should I make up the lost sleep through naps or just keep on going with our regular schedule? I will say first ww she barely made it to the 3h she was so tired and she was a bit harder to put down. Any help is welcomed!
Ww: 3/3.5/3.5
Naps: 1h15min x2 naps
Age: 7.5 months
Hi all! I’ve posted on here many times before and everyone has given great advice so looking for more.
Baby info
Age: 7.5m
Ww 2.75-3/3/3.25-3.5
Naps: 2 naps 1.25 each rocking and contact
We have been trying to sleep train using CIO for over a month now. I got to two solid nights in a row then I messed up her second nap by letting her sleep for 2 hours (this was an accident I fell asleep with her) so this completely derailed the night and the subsequent nights.
EMW are happening between 4-530 which is new so when that happens I just nurse to sleep and sleep with her till 7-730. The EMW are causing her to have <10h night sleep then if her naps are short she is just overtired and I have to do an early bed time and then an even earlier EMW. Let the cycle continue!
I’ve tried moving the last ww to 4h but she cant tolerate it. I’ve messed with her ww increasing and decreasing and nothing helps consolidate the naps or shorten the crying before bed. Thats usually always ~30 or more mins.
She also isn’t consolidating naps so like clock work when there’s ~30 mins left in her nap she wakes and I feed her to sleep. If I don’t the day is ruined.
How do I help my baby? I feel like I’m torturing her. How do I stop the overtired cycle? Overtired debt? Do I need to switch sleep training methods? How much is a sleep consultant 😩
I feel like my brain is fried and my baby has now been scream crying for about 40 mins so I’m going to do a check in.
Please help. I’ll answer any questions.
Hi all looking for advice. Baby girl fell asleep in the car for 10 mins right before her nap time (245). She woke up when I took her out of car and wouldn’t go back to sleep until 345. She is on a 2 nap schedule 2.75-3/3/3.5. She normally naps for 1.25 hour each nap. Should I keep this nap 1.25 or shorter? How long should her last ww be? Thanks!!
7 months
WW: transitioned ~1 week ago to 3/3/4
Naps: rocked&contact 1h15min each
Sleep training with cio ~1 month
Baby some nights will do great and others (like tonight) will get two cycles of deep sleep in then cry for 30 mins till I go in pick up calm and put back down in her crib. She will cry for even longer after I put her back in her crib but I end up cosleeping if the crying reaches up to an hour. Anyone know how I can fix the false starts?
Some info:
Age: 7months
WW: 3/3/4
Naps: 1h15mins each
Hi everyone! I’ve posted on here a handful of times and the last time was told to try a 3/3/4 schedule for my 7 month old.
We have finally made it to 3/3/4 and naps have been so much better but when it comes to night time my baby has such a hard time settling. We’ve been sleep training with cio for about a month. We started with 3 naps and just recently transitioned to 2 naps (was so hard but we’re getting there). When my baby is trying to settle she will cry hard then put her head down where I think she’s asleep then she pops back up awake and this goes on for an average of 25ish mins. Just last night it took her about 40 mins. When does it get easier? I feel terrible doing this to her. Do I need to do 3.5/3.5/4? The first wake window I can tell she is sleepy by the 3 hour mark. The second window I feel like she might be able to go longer. For both naps she’s going down easier compared to when we first transitioned. I do rock her to sleep and contact nap for every nap. Also for both naps I’ve noticed more times than not I’m having to save the nap maybe 30 mins in. Each nap is about 1h15mins. Any info is much appreciated!!
