I hurt my baby co sleeping

[Bumpyroads]

Baby is a terrible sleeper, we co sleep and I feel very sleep deprived.
I have always talked in my sleep however last night I had a nightmare and got very angry in my sleep.
We were co sleeping and baby was sleeping in the crook of my arm.
I bit him in my sleep hard on his eyebrow, I woke up immediately to him crying I thought I had bitten his eye and immediately started shouting at my husband to turn on the light. Im so upset about it he has red teeth marks which will probably leave a bruise.
Not sure I can tell anyone in real life so posting here

Breast or formula (you clearly have no idea what you are talking about). Can make up a large part of their nutrition in the day. Far healthier than having three milk feeds a night and that having a knock on impact on their eating and drinking in the day. It is a habit - as the OP has demonstrated by sorting his sleep out
and him only having one feed at night and not three….

Anyway, pleased the OP has followed the advice and her and the baby are getting more sleep.

Hahahha. I know exactly what I'm talking about. You do you. Whatever makes you feel better about your decisions. I'll continue to put my babies first and not take the easy way out 🥰

You're doing really well. I've been there and it's torture. I hope this improvement continues and you both get a decent night's sleep.

Teaching good sleeping habits is the opposite of the easiest way out….. but sleep is so important for everyone so…

@Lolajane80 you’ll continue to be a martyr and make other struggling mums feel shit about their sensible and safe decisions?

Yep you do you.

Not helpful. Cosleeping is brilliant IF there aren't contraindications like OP has. Safe cosleeping isn't possible for OP right now.

You’re doing brilliantly. Well done and sorry your husband is useless. Not read all the messages but ignore anyone shaming you for either co sleeping or sleep training. Both are totally valid choices and once co-sleeping stopped being ok for you, you made changes.
i fucking hate anyone who shames other parents over their reasonable choices.

Teaching a baby ?? Are you for real ? Babies are hard wired to access what they need most which is - comfort , security, love and nutrition. All the the things only a mother can provide . If you can't be bothered to provide those needs to your baby at the expense of your own desires then. Jane you shouldn't be a Mum ☺️

Yeah I have no issue with that. I'll always advocate for the most vulnerable - babies and children 🥰

I have co slept for years, but no way would I have done so if I was not a naturally light sleeper or experienced the sort of vivid dreams with acting out that you are. Get a 'next to me' crib. Don't share a sleeping surface. This is not safe. Move on fro. What happened, but take clear action to prevent this kind of thing ever happens again. Also,try and get some rest during the day. Prioritise this. You sound like you need it. Also, hugs to you. It must have been an awful experience. 💐

Ok so everyone who has a baby that sleeps well at night and eats well in the day shouldn’t be a Mum. Right.

You continue to be a Mummy martyr whilst both you and your children suffer unnecessary sleep deprivation because you can’t be bothered to do anything about it. Like others have said - you do you. But don’t criticise those who have put in the effort to encourage good sleep and eating habits with their babies. For the benefit of the baby, themselves and
the entire family.

Oh my darling . You are so very good at missing every point I have made . I don't think it's worthy of my time to continue explaining my point because I don't actually think you're capable of understanding it. Good luck babe 🥰

Look you don’t sound that bright to be honest. So no I wouldn’t continue, as you are not coming across very well.
I’d lose the emojis if you want an iota of credibility…

Teaching a baby good sleep habits is vital. Babies need proper sleep patterns and parents function better at home and work with good quality sleep.

Some babies are just malleable and fall into line and give their parents the impression of having done something clever that everyone else should do.

Then they're the same fuckers that go on to write the baby books and make everyone else feel like crap.

You need to put him somewhere safe to sleep as you are endangering him by not doing so. It’s not an option after this and your husband should enforce this for the safety of his child. It’s not worth this or something else happening to your baby not everyone can co sleep.

🥰🙏🏼

Sorry - did you just say her husband should ‘enforce it’ ?
