Thanks everyone. I think I'm worrying more because I'll miss her 🙈 she's sleeping through at the moment and I don't want to upset that either. I know I need to take the plunge soon because she's 8 months and getting too big for the next to me 🙈
I think I put my son into his room when he was around 9 months and it was definitely me who missed him more 🤣 he actually slept better! I put him in a travel cot in our room when he outgrew the next to me 🤣

Baby fudge had all of his daytime naps in his room in his cot then once he was consistently sleeping through I moved him into his own room at night and he’s done great! I barely slept the first night I was constantly looking at the monitor but since that first night I haven’t had the monitor on because I will hear him if he wakes

I was so hopeful last week we were coming out of the four month regression but Baby Lava had me up every hour from midnight last night. I have such sustained sleep deprivation now I have a permanent headache. It just feels so relentless 😭

Adding to the sleep struggle chat - my LO is almost 14 months old and recently she's just been waking up at 4am and refusing to sleep in her room so to make life easier for us all, I bring her in to sleep with us. You can see in her face that she's absolutely shattered but doesn't actually go back to sleep for another hour or so. I don't mind the sleepy cuddles but I do miss our sleep and I'm anxious of how long this'll last because my husband and I have only recently started to really like each other again 👀 :ROFLMAO:

There unfortunately seems to be another regression around then (when isn’t there a regression though??? 🤣)

For us something similar started at 14months and was really bad for a month or 2. He’s now 18months and we end up with him in our bed at least half of the nights a week, accepting there’s a high chance he will come into our bed in the middle of night keeps us sane 😂

Might be a stupid question but we've been bought shoes for our LO (currently 8 months old) how will I know when the shoes will fit? 🤦‍♀️ We have two pairs in different sizes.

Can you hold the bottom of the shoe against his foot and see if they’re similar sizes?

Clarks do fitting for baby shoes. They also have pre walkers which are good for babies before they walk and only just walking. They have softer soles and are meant to be better for their feet.

As others have said you can go into Clark’s to have their feet measured. We have 2 pairs of shoes which have been brought for little one but both of them are converse and I don’t really want him to wear them plus he’s not even walking yet 😅 can’t see them getting much use tbh!! For reference my little boy is nearly 16 months and is a size 3 I think (he was a 2.5 in Feb)!

We've got converse too. The other pair are Clarks and size 4.5 I think so they'll be a while yet although they look tiny so confused about babies sizes.

My little boy is 16 months (nearly 17months) and in size 4 and a half in Clarks pre walkers. Not sure if that’s helpful at all 😅

Mine is just 4.5 size and he's 17 months. He's a big guy too, tall for his age. I wouldn't worry about them yet!

Hope you're feeling ok x
Bit sore but left home same day so getting to rest in my own bed which is fab. Hubby throwing a bit of a strop that he has to do a few more things and didn't get a chance to get dinner for himself , I swear sometimes they're the biggest babies.
