10-12 months is a rough time. Your baby is probably learning loads, babbling, possibly trying to walk etc.
My first was terrible. He woke up 3 times a night and was up for the day at 5am. Then before his 1st birthday he started sleeping through the night.
Try not to cut out naps but expect that they might not be as long. Can you take him out a walk to get him to sleep? I find that it saves the battles.
It’s such a cliche but it is a phase and he will come out of it.
Most people say leave the chores but I’d say do what you can. A messy house can be quite triggering. Have a gentle word with your other half and try and get him to do what he can. Loading the washing machine or dish washer? Making you both a meal?
Now if I only had some pearls of wisdom to get my own baby to sleep....
Yes i second that your baby will pass this it takes time and a lot of patience but things will settle down eventually.
Men are not always very understanding are they? I think because babies naturally bond more with the mother (after all they did spend 9 months inside us!) there can be a tendancy to assume that mothers know best (which they usually do but thats not always the right response!) and an attitude of oh i'll just leave her to get on with things?
Thats what i found ?
It sounds like its the practical things that he could help with though yes he works but looking after a baby is also a full time job especially if you are on your own.
You need a break i think so you definitely need to sit him down and tell him so in no uncertain terms.
I was in a similar situation about two years ago but didn't say anything just kept going putting on a brave face but looking back on it actually i was not well and had pretty bad pnd.
I'm not saying that is what you have but in all honesty if you feel vulnerable or irritable high strung or easily angered or upset or are having bouts of crying then maybe consider talking to a health visitor or your gp.
I wish i had my daughter is 3 now and sometimes i still feel depressed and sometimes she still doesn't sleep very well!!
It seems to come in fits and spurts sometimes she will go for weeks sleeping through the night at other times she is restless and wakes frequently?
So i know you feel like and lockdown and isolation are a really pain aren't they?
I have not seen my mother in one year and we both live in london!
To be honest though even when she did come she was not very helpful and my husbands mother died when he was five so i'm all alone as well with no back up.
It puts pressure on a relationship i get that men just seem to hone in on the fun bits (playing with kids?l and leave the more mundane things to mum?
Can your partner take the baby out for a walk in his buggy?
I used to find this a godsend?
One hour to yourself (at least) i think you really need that?
Make regular routines for yourself to get some breathing space even if its just a walk around the block to get some air?
You need space to think and breathe and to just be you?
Don't beat yourself up about your baby not sleeping much stick to a routine as much as you can and i found my health visitor to be helpful in putting my mind at ease.
Get advise from here from anywhere even from the dreaded child rearing manuals!
Hey some are better than others but most contain a sleep section?
If your a first time mum though sometimes its just trail and error and patience and observation untill it clicks into place.
Good luck with everything there will be good days and bad days but make sure that you get your needs met because that is just as important as the baby getting what he needs.
I wish you well.
I've been a naughty girl and had some warnings so think that luxury has been taken away from me!
not to make it all about me but I get up every night through the night with the baby then get up at 5.30/6am with him everyday!
i feel a bit better today but the weather/lockdown doesn't help
