It all depends. For us, he started "sleeping through the night" at about 3 months. Although he's been a great napper (2 2 hour naps until a year & 3-4 hour naps now) and sleeper (12 hours/night until 1 year) some days were brutal. I'd put him down for the morning nap and hop in the shower before starting work and he'd wake up with a start right after I got in. Same thing at night. Since I work from home I was on duty at night and he's wake up with a start at midnight or 2am and be up for the next 2 hours. Just know that 1-2 days doesn't make a trend. Try to stick to a schedule and notice any trends emerging in their sleep patterns. We used an app to track everything and it worked out great for the first 6 months because sometimes you swear you just did something and it turns out to be 4 hours ago with all the chaos and lack of sleep.Just had my first one 12/15, so I'm still learning things myself. The wife was straight gangsta with it. 12 hours labor, 2 pushes and no epidural. I watched the whole thing. It's so much different than watching the videos. I still can't believe that he's here on the outside.
How hard was it for you guys to get your little ones on a sleep schedule, and when did you start??
I'm still working on my swaddle game too. Little man always punches his way out!!
Ya, you're not going to be chilling for a while. Try to get him on a schedule as soon as possible though. It's amazing how ours is going full tilt, then once the nap time rolls around, he's OUT. Been that way for over a year now. There's always exceptions, but I can usually count on at least a 3 hour solid nap during the day. He once slept for 5 hours straight during the day when he was about 6 months old and I was freaking out going up there every 30 minutes to make sure he was ok.So it sounds like I should just chill right now since he's only 2 weeks old...
i know that feel.and I was freaking out going up there every 30 minutes to make sure he was ok.
It's that mixed emotion between "is he still alive?!" and "Party on! This is awesome!!!"and I was freaking out going up there every 30 minutes to make sure he was ok.i know that feel.

Our transition was pretty easy. He started going when he was about 4 months, and never really cried or anything (until these past 2 weeks). How does she do with family members or friends holding her? Does she cry a lot still?What was it like transitioning your baby to daycare? I want to get the g/f back working, but man our baby is super spoiled. She thinks she has to be held 24/7, even in her sleep she'll wake up and start tripping if she feels you lose contact. She feeds constantly at times, sometimes even refuses the bottle and demands to just fall asleep on the breasts. I feel like if I take her, they'll be calling us back within hours telling us to come pick her up, she cries too much. No way day cares have the personel to do that for every baby. She is going to cry so much and be annoying every one and even worse do damage to herself like her hernea from screaming so much if they think they just going to sit her in a carrier and keep it moving with a 20 to 1 daycare teacher to kid ratio or something.
