new mum here in need of some.sleep advice. we had our little one on 10th October she is coming up to nearly 3 month old.
I have got into a small routine with her of bathing her between 6 and 7 , a baby massage and then a bottle. she goes down anytime between 8pm to 9pm. she self settles at night quite well, during the early hours or day not so much, not without a crying meltdown she will sleep for about 4 or 5 hours. so is up around 1am to 2am. I get up keep the house quiet and dim, feed her and burp her. get her back down after that she will only sleep another 2 hours and I am up most days from about 4am.
the lack of sleep is starting to get to me ( could be cuz I have been unwell lately too) my partner helps alot too but he works shift work so.needs his sleep which isnt happening.
is their anything I am doing wrong? I am going back to work when she is 6.months and I am panicking that I wont be able to cope if sleep doesnt get much better.
she is formula fed
any advice would be so helpful
