Finally sleeping 🙏

My son will be 5 weeks on Monday, and since day 1, he only sleeps 30 minutes at a time at night. I was going crazy from being so sleep deprived!! He also wouldn’t sleep in his crib

Well since I’m up all night, I was googling ways to get him to sleep longer and in the crib. As of now, he’s been sleeping in his crib for 2 hours 😭 I know for other moms this is probably not much, but man this is the longest he’s ever slept and IN HIS CRIB!

I got him this swaddle so he wouldn’t wake himself up when moving his arms. I also bought a mattress pad cover so his bed is a bit more comfy for him and so his mattress doesn’t make so much noise when he moves (the plastic was pretty noisy). Also got a crib wedge since he has bad reflux and grunted more than usual when laying flat on his back. Finally, I made a rice sock for comfort and a bit of warmth, and I play him lullabies with the sound machine I got at my baby shower.

I swear I could cry right now 😭 I was so desperate I was literally willing to buy and try anything 😂
