How long does your baby sleep at night? And who help when your really tired? Do you still go to school?

When I first had him I was up all night for 2 weeks straight..He only took naps in the day and was up all night...Then around a month he was on a schedule..He would go to bed at 9:30 wake up at 12,2,4,6 and then I would take him to the baby sitter...So I could go to school...Now he is a year and sleeping throughout the night but wakes up at the crack of dawn...---babys are very fun and a wonderful gift ..But you dont ever hardly get sleepwhen they get here...--i am always tired..And noone helped me...Everyone else has jobs and kids to....So its not that easy ..

My son started sleeping through the night at about 1 month. He sleeps around 8-9 hours. But dont be jealous just yet, he is colicky during the day ;)
when youre really tired get your boyfriend/husband to help you. Or any family you live with.
Many people still go to school with babies, its hard , but its worth it in the long run.

Same as .Natalia. Kayoni has slept since about 1 month all night long. Maybe we're just really lucky, but every night since 1 month i've given my angel a .H.O.T bath and a full body massage. It never fails!! She sleeps from 10pm to 7:30am. Which is awesome for mua!

Good .Luck!!

Lol...At least we get this much...I don't even was to say the "c" cord!! You know it rhymes with hollic!! Lol...I'd shoot myself if she had "you know what"!!

After her 7:30 meal she sleeps till about 10. Then she might take 1 or 2 naps all day long.

I seriously cannot complain. She's an awesome baby! I couldn't ask for a better behaved child who has an amazing personality already!!

My angel went to the Dr. Today and had to get 4 shots!!!!!!!!!!!! My angel was screaming ya hear!?!?! I've never seen her scream that bad!!! Well except for last time when they gave her 3 shots!!!

Elisa slept through the night at 6-7 weeks but was misreable during the day, cam only slept throught the night the other day but hes 5 months, I have to admit though he an awesome baby barely cries/always smiling.

I work full time,attend school and take care of two kids its extremely tiring but so worth it, I dont think I could live without them they just become part of you life

My son used to sleep from 8am til 8pm from one week old but since i've started him on solids a few weeks ago he is now waking up 3-4 times for bottles! Its a nightmare as i'm pregnant with baby no.3 and have a 17 month old daughter too.


Suggestions would be greatly appreciated....

My daughter has always slept through the night from about 10-11 pm straight through to about 4-5 am and then all she wants to do is eat and fall back asleep until about 8-10 am...

I still go to school and she goes to daycare in my school. You should check to see if you have a pregnant and parenting school in your area.

my son did this too and I eventually realised it was apple that didn't agree with him. Also, maybe he's having too much solid food in an evening? I still give my son a bottle of milk to go to bed on and he's 17 months old!

I just had a thought - is your son drinking enough water? Maybe he is thirsty and that is why he wakes up?

Hiya I give him loads of water. Last night he succesfully slept through til 8am this morning so hopefully whatever it was has passed now.

Btw, I also give my 17 month old daughter a bottle of milk and a bottle of water for bed. I leave it by her pillow so if she wakes up theres no need for her to cry and wake me up! Lol. I also leave 2 pacifiers (dummies) with her so if she loses one theres another there!
I'm a lazy mum! Haha. But I need my sleep!
