Pregnancy insomnia has hit again .... been awake since 3.30am, can't wait to have a reason to be awake at this time 😊
Congrats to all the new mummies and babies. I've lost Track of where we are up to they're coming so quick and fast now 💙💕💙💕
@mightymouse76 I second what @teainbed says, the official guidelines don't always work for your baby or for you as parents. Bean was a nightmare sleeper for the first 4-5 nights, eventually I made the call is it safer to fall asleep with him in my arms or safer to put him in his Moses basket On his tummy. I chose the latter and he slept for 4hours. Turnip was the same and would only sleep on her front. But then I am exactly the same hence pregnancy insomnia 😡
Both mine started doing midnight until 6am from around 6wks old.
Waiting for them to be properly asleep also works, as does the wearing something and giving it them as a comfort. I already have spuds blanket coming to bed with me so it's all ready for him when he makes his arrival 😊
So a little update on us, I have managed to sort a house to stay in for 5 weeks (my nana's) we move on Saturday. I didn't even need to ask her if it was ok if I could organise a hb for her house, she just asked when the kit would be delivered 👍🏼😃 I have organised to see the midwives in that area this morning at 9am and then they are going to deliver the kit this afternoon. So until Saturday I will
Have both houses covered for a hb 😃👍🏼 yay!
Still not 100% about spuds early days being in someone else's house but needs must, and on the positive reduced household bills for 5 weeks, a nana that loves to be a nana so will
Fuss and make sure I am eating etc ... and limited visitors as they won't want to impose on my nana's house, so plenty of family bonding time.
39 weeks today 💙
