Hi there!

Im a FTM and my baby is 14 months now.

She was my dream come true as I always wanted to be a mom! As I was pregnant, I was very sure that I will only have one baby and be done. My pregnancy was so easy no symptoms, no pains nothing. Delivery as well. All was perfect.

As soon as I gave birth I felt in love with her. She was the most perfect newborn that I ever saw.

As soon as she hit 2 months, I felt a very strong urge to have another baby. Idk if thats a hormone thing? Eventho she was quite a difficult baby, colicky, always crying never sleeping (she still doesnt sleep properly and before her I NEEDED to sleep 12 hr straight😂) I felt that our family was not complete. More like another soul is waiting to join our family (Im not religious so thats weird but thats how I felt)

I started to talk to my husband and he was a no no for another baby as it’s challenging financially but I still feel that there is one more baby that belongs in our family.

Also worth mentioning: Im the default parent that stat at home, my husband work. I dont have any family that helps

Id love to hear from the ones that had the #2 how did you decide? Whats the age gap? How challenging was it?

Thanksss

My almost 15 months old baby just transitioned to one nap but her nap is max 1 hr which leads to early bedtime and a lot of wakes at night

She aleays used to wake at night but now its more frequent and I am so confused what to do

When on two naps she would have total ~2 hr of naps and ~10.5 hr nights and now she has 1 hr nap and 11-12 hr nights. Now I know her nights are longer now but its the only way to survive since she naps for short time and cant make it to a proper bedtime so Im forced to do early bedtime

Ive tried giving catnaps but she only accepted 1-2 times

Does it get better with time or should I go back to 2 naps I am confused of what to do

Her mornings shifted later than with 2 naps she used to wake up sharp 6am now its got closer to 7 am

Is she overtired and wakes more at night or is it just art of transition?

Did your babies lengthen the nap with time or are we doomed 🥲🥲🥲

My baby has just turned 14 mos and our two nap clock working schedule has gotten all over the place…

She used to do 2-2.15 hours of naps and 11-11.25 hr nights but for some reason for a month now we are struggling!

She still takes two naps but oh boys those naps are all over the place… sometimes the first one 4-4.5 hrs ww sometimes 3 and sometimes they are 30 mins long sometimes 1 hr.. she doesnt refuse a second nap and that one also has shrinked into 25-35 mins tops and bedtime has gotten later than ever with 10-10.5 hr of nights sleep (there are days that this is 9.5 hr)

I was wondering to drop a nap but she is not napping properly to make it to bedtime with just an hour nap?

Is this a regresssion or what? Anyone dealt with something like this?

Pls help

Hi everyone,

I have a 11 and a half month old who has decreased the total night sleep from 11.5 to barely 10 hours a night resulting to 6 am sharp wake up😭

She does around 2-2.5 hr of naps (2 naps) sleeps independently also and last week did 1 night of STTN for the first and only time!!

I am wondering if she is giving signals to drop to 1 nap but I know it is very tricky so tell me all your secrets, when and how you dropped to 1 nap

Thank youuuuu
