This nonstop obsessive parenting is newish and terrible for women.  It wasn’t possible for women decades or centuries ago to be up all hours of the night. Mothers being up all night for older babies seems to coincidentally be women who don’t have other children and are at home. [/quote]

It's so harmful and unrealistic for mothers. We are literally driving women crazy because it's the safest option. LOL, safe for who?

By the time I was on my third kid, I had the confidence to ignore all that. Took precautions, but he slept with me. He would stir to breastfeed and I would go right back to sleep as would he.

It was absolutely the best postpartum experience I had.

By 2 months, swaddling worked much better and then we did gentle sleep training at 4 months. So not long-term.

OP, wishing your peace. Hope your meds kick in soon. It takes time for the hypervigilance to subside, but it will for sure. Anxiety is cyclical for everyone. I'll be thinking of you. [/quote]
