I'm lucky and my husband is happy to help with baby feeding during the night whilst I pump, since baby only likes bottle feeding. We found early on he likes to sleep in a certain position which we think has helped him, when we put him down in his cot if he is in his preferred position he will stay that way for hours on end rarely waking up during the night these days unless he is ill.

He has a baby projection we have on and his own alexa playing his streaming list from spotify of nursery rhymes and sensory music which helps him settle and stay asleep, we love say hello to the sun, mystey mountains and lullabies are great too. We use sleeping bags and he just loves his own space in his cot, to start with he would not sleep long unless he was in the bed with us checking we were still there in the night which is fine since we have a super king bed, as he grew older he was happy to be in his own cot and now loves spreading out and using every inch,

We found a calpol night plug and dehumidifier also helps at night if he has a cough and a warm bath at night too before bed. Pampers are great for the long nights especially since he doesn't wake up needing a change and the leaks are minimal, own brand nappies we found he was waking because they were leaking and making him uncomfortable.

I am the mother of two girls, one 2 years and 5 months old and the other 1 year and 1 month old. The truth is that it is very difficult to make them sleep all night. When the two-year-old girl started sleeping all night on her own, the little girl was born. and her sleep was completely out of control and many times when the youngest was already waking up, the oldest woke up, so it was a never-ending story hahahaha, about two months ago the oldest is already sleeping through the night again but the little one still hasn't achieve, but this is just a matter of being patient and letting them take their own routine because sometimes it doesn't matter what you do to change their routine, only they decide what they want.

As a mom of 2 under 2 routine is key. Especially for my older daughter. She has a set nap time but sometimes goes without (she's at that age where she can miss a day or 2) we never let her sleep later then 4pm for her nap and she goes to bed at 7pm. My younger daughter has her last nap at round 6pm and goes to bed with us at about 10pm. We found this works best since my older daughter will sleep 13-14 hours of a night but my youngest only sleep about 8 hours so we all get up at the same time. My youngest has had trouble sleeping for longer then 1-2 hours since birth but we've finally mastered it and our life saver has been bedtime porridge, it keeps her full all night so she doesn't wake during the night!

My 6 month old really starts to fuss an hour before bed time, our trick is to take her upstairs and strip down to her vest and give her her favourite toy so she can roll around on the bed and get rid of the last bit of energy. Then it’s lights off , bottle and stay close by but allow her to self settle. Works a charm! Also after many instances of her waking up due to a leaky nappy, we’ve found pampers is the only brand we can trust for overnight sleeping. Waking up lovely and dry!

Mum of 3 , I found getting a bedtime routine helped... easier said than done I know. Try sticking to at least 1 thing that they can relate to it being bedtime 🌙 helped get them off to sleep quicker 😴 . Nor always a full night's sleep and had many days coping on an empty tank but here's to things getting easier 🙂.... a dry, comfortable bottom always helps 👍... thanks Pampers 😊

Hello, i have a 2 year old and a 4 month old, we have never had a strict routine and been lucky to have babies who love to sleep. This is why pampers are so important as they are going long stretches at night! I also love have the pull up ones for when we’re in a rush and the strap ones for when we have just gotten welllies on😂

Hi, mum of 3 (6, 4 and 9 month old) so I’ve had so many different experiences with each one but by far my second born gave me quite a shock and something to have a laugh over. So when my second born was just a week old I went to change her nappy and she decided to send out some flying poo at me where my trousers got destroyed and there was no way I could stop it as it just kept going and then I had to leave her with my hubby while I went and got changed and then got her clothes while he sorted baby out.

Sleep deprivation hits hard when they go through teething and sleep regressions. Yet Pampers have always been our saviour as they last throughout the long nights with no leaks! I wouldn't want to put my baby into anything else. Who wants to cha ge their baby multiple times a night which wakes them up even more? Not me! Thank you Pampers.

Mom of three here to a 10, 8 and 2 year old and to say we have had our fair share of poonami would be an understatement. We have ended up with poop literally everywhere and even had it where the dog has rolled in it after I didn't spot it fast enough during a midnight newborn stage!!! The best thing about pampers is even you do manage to have a leak during a poonami its still contained the trickiest bit is getting the clothes off with disturbing it more. My massive tip to a new mom will always be don't stress as that makes it spread, and if its really bad just head straight to the bathroom to keep the house cleaner!!!

Everyday is different but try to keep to the best routine we can. I have read a bedtime story since day one with my son, he has no idea what i am saying but he soon realised the pattern. We then do final big feed of the day and into a fresh nappy before he goes into his cot for a 8-10 hour sleep (which he has been doing since 2 months old and we are now at 5 months old) lets hope it continues next month when he goes into his own room.

When my baby was new born I was told in hospital that I should be changing him every few hours through the night!! I got home and then after a few terrible nights my midwife told me -stop!!! No need unless heavy wet or soiled. Best advice ever. I’ve rarely changed his nappy through the night since and he’s now 1.5!! Using pampers absolutely helps, 12 hours is awesome. In terms of sleep tips I don’t have many, my baby has never been a fan 😂

We use Spotify on an old phone to play white noise/ ocean sounds and piano covers quietly in our toddler's room. Like to think it makes a difference keeping him asleep when his baby sister wakes up and finds it easier than a 20 min noise machine. The account l connect to my current phone too so can easily control it as necessary from another room!
Love the expert tip of playing with baby, lying on the floor with them. As a tummy sleeper, I missed this so much in pregnancy. Making up for lost time now! 😴❤️

After being told that it's best for baby to sleep on their back, I got suckered into thinking that's what's best for my child ( should have known better as it was my fourth. ) , the first two weeks were an absolute nightmare and I almost lost my mind. Until I remembered that her older siblings were happy tummy sleepers, I gave it a go and et voilà I had a happy baby that would sleep for longer hours. Absolute life saver for me.

My son is 15 months and he sleep a lot almost 10 hours that's dream of every mom i know, but for this long period i need a trusted partner and i found it with Pampers premium protection wich never disappointed me, no leakage and in the morning i have a happy todler who sleep a lot and been protected. Thank you Pampers for your hard work! PS i am not changing during the night 🌃❤️😉😴

Our little one is in bed with us and we experimented with other nappy brands and now at night time we have a rule that it's always a pampers! There have been too many occasions of waking up in the night to a leak then having to change the bed... So on top of the sleep deprivation we had to change the sheets and putting the washing machine on in the middle of the night - no one needs that 😂

Not going to lie not sure I can offer advice I'm still struggling with sleep dep and still breastfeeding at 18months. I'm actually at a loss to be honest. Up 5x a night for boobie

Itzbeccy • 05/02/2024 - 16:12

I've got a 2 year old. And in a toddler bed. How I get him to sleep is he have a milk bottle in bed so he keeps still, have some quiet music on from his teddy's and a mood light like a projector toy etc for him to watch to help him sleep. And he sleeps 7/8-6am

After I had my first, a friend recommended me a book "12 hours sleep by 12 weeks old" by Suzi Giordano. It is brilliant, and whilst I didn't 100% stick to it, i followed the principles and it has helped me get both my boys (now 20 months and 5 months) and then have done a good 8 hours minimum from about 2- 3 months. In a nutshell, as babies, I trained mine to feed every 3 hours rather than 4 hours after about 8/12 weeks. My first child was bottle fed and my second breast-fed and so it does work for both. I had a friend who was really struggling with getting her son to sleep more than 4 hours in the night and eventually she tried this and after a week she said it changed her life and she wished she'd done it sooner. My friend that recommended the book has 4 children (2 boys 2 girls), a mixture of feeding and births and this has also worked for her also. All babies are different, mine couldn't be more difficult but if you're struggling I would really recommend the book.

After ten weeks of sleep deprivation HELL my little boy suddenly slept through the night. I couldn't believe it!
He's 9 months old now and continues to sleep through, around 12hrs in total a night (I know?!) he's my first baby so I feel very lucky!
My major tip is to keep making little tweaks until baby is comfortable. For example, I was tucking the end of his sleep sack (feet end) under his mattress as I'd seen other people do it. He hated it as it meant he didn't have freedom of movement.
He loved being in a sleep sack that kept his arms zipped up (love to dream) and when he became too big for them/risk of rolling and not being able to use hands, I switched him to the ones where the arms are completely out. He did NOT like this as he'd felt safe with his arms tucked in (like in the womb) so I did one arm at a time instead and used sacks with sleeves to slowly get him used to it.
A white noise machine, one that lights up red (tommee tippee £20 on Amazon) is amazing as it indicates to him it's time to sleep when I switch it on. As soon as he hears it now his eyes start rolling back!
Google sleep schedules for your baby's age to see how much awake time they should have between naps (he goes roughly 3.5hrs at 9 months) and make sure they've had good quality naps during the day with no early awakenings as if he's grumpy towards bedtime it's harder to get him to settle.
He still sleeps in my room, do what works for you. Don't feel pressured to put them in their own room because they've turned 6 months, you're their safety and it means you won't be up and down and staring at their monitor.
I only use pampers pull ups for overnight as he used to wake up due to being uncomfortable with a wet nappy, it can burn their skin if the nappy isn't absorbing it!
Hope these tips help someone xx
