katabi niyo ba si baby matulog at night?

[beigh]

@sis princessrio, tama sis,ganyan din kami ni hubby. Minsan nagigising na lang ako, sexy time na pala hehe

[eraMamu]

The main reasons why I decided to quit my job last year were to personally take care of our daughter and keep our lives intimate and private.
Nung first 6 months, may yaya kami kasi di ko kaya pagsabayin ang trabaho sa bahay, opisina at alaga ng bata. Ok naman si yaya; maasikaso, masipag, maalaga sa bata, malinis din sa bahay. Kaso nahirapan naman kami kumilos bilang mag-asawa at medyo nagseselos na kami kasi mas nagiging close na si baby kay yaya, although exclusive breastfeeding kami.
Then I started calculating our expenses and comparing the pros and cons ng may yaya at wala. Maswerte ako kasi ok ang sahod ni hubby, sapat para sa aming monthly needs, including bills. Naging mas ok nung walang yaya kasi natutukan ko si baby, and naturuan ng tamang time oras ng tulog.
Ngayon pag umuuwi si hubby ng 9pm, kumustahan lang sila ni baby, then pwede na ko lumingkis hehe... Tapos dinner, laro sila habang nagliligpit ako. Pagkatapos ko, antok na rin si baby, toothbrush time na namin, hilamos, then dede hanggang sa makatulog na si baby. The rest of the night, amin na ni hubby, at natutulog kaming magkakatabi.

yes katabi namin baby namin since birth. turning 2 na din sya next month. established kasi yun routine nya at 8PM nun baby pa sya sleepy time na, na move na nga ng 9 at 10pm eh. these days nako 11 or 12 na, pero binabalik ko na sya sa 10pm at least. sanay sya na once patay na ilaw na matutulog na, dun lang ako nakakawork at night. breastfeeding ako until now, lately tuwing early in the morning na lang sya nadede. dati twice or thrice pa. pagtulog niya tulog na tulog na sya, kaya me time na nakaka simple na si hubby. wala din naman kami choice, wala yaya, wala other room. chaka hindi ko kaya wala sya sa tabi ko.

around 18-21 months son ko grabe gusto ko na mag wala tuwing madaling araw na nagwawala sya. di ko alam gagawin ko. dedede sya sakin, sobrang sakit na ng dede ko di pa din sya tapos. ginawang paci na. i believe it was just a phase kasi ngayon di na sya ganun, 23 months na sya

and also, if by 4pm hindi pa sya nakakanap, dont let him take a nap na, kasi pag nag nap sya, magigising na lang sya magdamag at hindi makakatulog. at super bilis niya matulog kung nakapag shower sya talaga,minsan kasi hinid na nagawa like punas na lang ganun, as much as possible shower talaga ginagawa ko para mabilis matulog hehe

[oreo08]

no, hindi namin katabi si baby matulog.

1. nagigising sya agad konting galaw lang. Pag nagising sya and nakita kami, gusto laro na kahit madaling araw (this was my observation when we co-slept hanggang 6-7 months)
2. nagigising rin ako agad konting galaw lang nya

so for both our sake, kelangan talaga she sleeps on her own bed (or crib in this case). In the morning, we wake up refreshed and raring to go/play it works! We use a video baby monitor and inayos namin sya so it can pick up the slightest movements and the quietest sounds.

pero mahirap nga kung puro yaya so as a Mum gusto mo gawan ng paraan yun. Siguro if I were in your position m_lim, paguwing paguwi mo, ikaw lahat kay baby. As in lahat. Iba paglutuin mo if you're the one that cooks, etc. Bathe your baby, play games, read books etc. Kumbaga, parang walang yaya pagdating nyo sa bahay. Also, hindi ko rin hahayaan na ang katabi nya matulog sa kama is the yaya. Dahil talagang bukambibig talaga nyan yaya kung simula pagdilat ng mata hanggang pagpikit nya eh si yaya ang unang unang nakikita. Maybe get a video baby monitor too para kahit magisa sya sa bedroom nya, you can still keep an eye on your baby.

Another thing, our weekends MUST be spent with our daughter ng kaming 3 (with her Dad) lang. Siguro dinner sa in laws or something pero majority of the day, bonding namin yun. So hindi kami naguguilty na o nagwowork kami the whole day and someone else takes care of her, eh ang bilis bilis lumaki ng babies etc etc. Kasi nga paguwi namin, superrr hands on kami sa kanya and pag weekends, sya talaga focus namin. Hindi rin kami umaalis ni hubby ng weekends ng di sya kasama. #1 rule ko yan pag spend time with her na kami lang and walang extrang lola/lolo/tito/tita.

Katabi namin si baby matulog. 4mos pa lang siya tsaka breasfeeding kami kaya need talaga direct latch after work. Naku me gabi ayaw kami patulugin kaya puyat din kami ni hubby at times.

[ghye]

Eversince my baby was born, katabi na namin sya matulog.  He's now 2 years and 2 months. It was so hard at first kasi iniisip mo baka madaganan mo si baby while asleep pero eventually nasasanay na rin and since breastfeeding din kami.  Also, sa gabi ang pinaka time namin with baby since we both are working during daytime and especially that husband comes homes every two weeks kaya nilulubos namin ang time with baby.  When we have to say attend a wake, baby has to stay with her yaya.  He sleeps with the yaya and when we go home, kukunin namin kay yaya then dadalhin sa room namin.  Pero pag happy occasion naman, and gabi ang activity, we bring him along.  Every single minute is very precious na makasama ang anak.  I feel so guilty pag wala ako ginagawa tapos hindi ko pa nakakalaro baby ko.  Sa umaga, when I leave for work, it's so hard to leave kasi nagwawala sya, nag iiyak, gusto sumama.  Ihahatid niya ako hangang sakayan at problema na ni yaya kung paano siya iuuwi.  And it's a joy to come home after work, seeing him smiling and anticipating my coming home.
Last December when I have to commute from Baguio to Manila then back to Baguio in 48 hours, baby is tagging along with me.

[mjp]

Almost 1 month pa Lang si baby. He sleeps in a bassinet next to the bed. I'm taking it a month at a time, so far ok naman siya sa bassinet. I'm a stay-at-home-mom and baby is EBF Pero we decided to have him sleep separate kasi hubby and I want to have our time. Mag kasama naman kami buong araw ng kids. Usually hubby takes charge of the kids when he gets home so I can have my me-time like long baths, cook/bake. Wala kami yaya kaya sakit an kami ni hubby ng pag alaga.

[[-c-h-a-]]

for her first 6 months of life, yes we co slept...

then we transitioned her to her crib (weaned her off her night feeds muna)... her first night, she didn't wake up until 10 hours later! We were so refreshed!!

[eman306]

she sleeps in her bassinet katabi ng bed namin. 6 months palang si baby. breastfeeding kami kaya medyo pagod talaga kasi pagkagising ng newborn palang pero ngayon medyo ok na. she sleeps around 8pm then wakes up to feed arund 12 am then 3am. May pasok kami ni hubby so ako i wake up 5am para magluto ng breakfast at ihanda mga gamit ni baby then 630 or 7am gigising na si baby feed ulit bago kami umalis.

hectic hahaha

[preggygielian]

When we came home from the hospital, he slept in his pack n' play bassinet but it was so painful sa lower back whenever I need to stand up and pick him up. After 3 nights, I put him in his First Years co-sleeper - best decision ever! Hindi na super sakit sa likod when I pick him up and I'd sit on the bed while feeding him.

Since very small ang baby ko, he was able to stay in his co-sleeper until he was 4 months. Then nilagay na namin siya sa bed na may maliit na hotdog pilows sa side niya.

He's 6.5 months now and I think masaya ang magkatabi sa kama. Konting galaw niya matatapik ko siya agad so makakabalik siya sa tulog. Pag umiyak siya in the middle of the night and need to feed/be comforted, madali lang din mag-sit up sa bed to nurse/comfort him.

[gwyne21]

Yes katabi namin si baby. King-size ang binili naming mattress para may ample space kaming tatlo sa bed.

[izabelle]

yes until now katabi pa din namin. She's turning 4 yrs old in few months and feeling ko need na nya lumipat sa sarili nyang bed, kasi lahat ng dolls nya, gusto nya katabi din haha! so halos wala na kaming pwesto ni hubby sa bed. Mga 10 dolls kasama nya sa bed. Not exaggerating, ganon talaga kadami. So medyo masikip na kami.

[nageinna]

we co-sleep din since day 1. breastfed din kasi kami so it was easier to co-sleep. now dilemma ko naman, i'll be giving birth this november on our 2nd baby. inlaws want to let LO sleep with yaya as early as now para it wont be hard for him when i give birth. i dont have plans on letting him sleep with his yaya even after giving birth. i told hubby to get an extra mattress nalang then tabi sila ni LO magsleep doon. then maybe get his own bed pag he's a bit bigger na and can sleep on his own.

[eleine26]

yes. mas mahaba tulog namin pareho kapag magkatabi kami. kaya parang sayang yung crib niya. play area lang niya pag araw.

[nicoletta]

Initially, we wanted to let him sleep lang to a certain point and that after 2 months, we will transfer to our room na.  Kaya lang even hubby feels bad leaving baby with the yaya.  We can monitor him naman sa cctv pero iba parin talaga siguro.

When we sleep with him, observation namin is closer siya samin.  Kahit with yaya around, we can obviously see that he adores his dad and likes to play with me.  I can see he loves his yaya pero at least he loves us too.  In fairness, hirap din naman ng job ng yaya, imagine lagi sila magkasama?

Since clingy si baby, sasama na naman namin siya and yaya on our trip abroad. 

[Beng01]

Yes, mga sis, we co-sleep with our baby since day 1. She is already 10 months old.

[caterpillar-girl]

I'm planning to get Arm's Reach Co Sleeper Bedside Bassinet.  Has anyone tried it? It's like sleeping with your baby beside you, but not really. He has his own crib, right next to your bed, so he still gets the feeling of being beside you while being safe in his own crib. I'm paranoid about having the baby next to me so this looks like a win win situation.

When I get really tired I sleep like a log so nakakatakot mag co sleep. We also live in a one-bedroom unit so he/she will have to wait for his/her own nursery.  Hehe.

[sunsetbeach]

^hi sis i have the ideal co sleeper. I recommend it. Ang disadvantage nga lang niya for me is that you cant breastfeed na nasa co sleeper si baby then ikaw nasa bed hehe. I still need to transfer baby sa bed to breastfeed then balik ko siya sa co sleeper.

If limited space, i recommend the arc mini. Same with ideal but smaller.

[caterpillar-girl]

^was looking at that model nga. Thanks sis. Kahit na we can't breastfeed with the arc sleeper at least we don't have to keep getting up to put the baby back to his/her crib.

[wandergirl1980]

My daughter is now 6 at katabi pa rin namin matulog. Actually, katabi namin siya matulog ever since. Naalala ko pa nung 1-3 years old siya hikain pa kaya every 4 hours kailangan siya painumin ng gamot at i-nebulize grabe sakit din sa ulo yung puyat. looking back iniisip ko kung paano ko nakayanan hahaha. Tapos may time din na sumusuk siya kung kelan talaga gabi at patulog na. I freelance from home at si hubby naman working sa Ortigas. Yung "personal" time namin ni hubby talagang we find time kundi mawawalan talaga kami ng gana sa isa't-isa.

Though may sariling room ang anak ko ayaw niya matulog natatakot daw siya. Inisip ko na lang darating din ang time aayawan na niya kami katabi so hangga't gusto niya pa eh sige lang. Kaya ang bes namin from double nag-upgrade na sa king size para maluwag pa rin sa aming tatlo.
