Tell me you're going through a sleep regression without telling me...
Second time mom here and woof I completely forgot how hard and fast that 4 month sleep regression hits! Our little one is overall a pretty good sleeper (truly lucky!), but the past week has humbled us. I looked at our Nanit stats and had to laugh at the validation 😂 Anyone else going through a regression right now?

When did you transition from in-room to nursery?
We have a 5mo who has been in an attached bassinet next to my side of the bed. Our pediatrician recommended moving him to his nursery full-time no earlier than 6mo. I used to count the days until that time (does anyone else's LO sound like a dinosaur sleeping?), but now that 6 mo is around the corner, I am feeling anxious…

Teething and sleep- help!
Our almost 6 month old is almost definitely teething. He is generally ok during the day and all about Sophie (I get it now!), but he's really struggling to fall and stay asleep. I'm just starting to feel a tooth breaking through. We're using Tylenol sparingly, but I don't want to overdo it. Has anyone cracked the code on…

My girl Lilly specifically is the first living being that was all mine and has been with me through it all. Our relationship has evolved a bit since my son was born, but she's still my…

Does anyone else's LO belong in a horror movie? 😂🎥😱
With Halloween around the corner, my husband and I have been joking about the creepy things our 9 mo son does. I scare very easily, so I'm bracing myself for the days of waking up to our son silently standing staring at me next to the bed. Our 9 mo's two creepiest habits right now are staring directly into the Nanit camera…

What was/is your mat leave binge-watching show?
I am (perhaps obviously) a FTM and found that I filled a lot of my time while on mat leave binge watching shows I always wanted to watch, but never had the time. I really leaned in to that time knowing that if I have more babies, my tv will likely be monopolized by a little person's shows :). My go-tos were Friday Night…

Tips for the full roll?
We have an almost 5 month old and he has long mastered the back to front roll, but he's been stuck on the front to back roll for a couple of weeks. Does anyone have any tips for getting over this hump?
