My hair is falling out in clumps! I'm 4 months postpartum. Please tell me this stops. Is there anything I can do about it?
This is a developmental phase. Their sleep cycles are maturing. We read 'Precious Little Sleep' and it had some great tips. It does get better!
My pediatrician said to let them sleep! As long as they are gaining weight properly and have enough wet/dirty diapers, you don't need to wake a sleeping baby. Enjoy the rest!
Even a few minutes at a time adds up! We used a special tummy time mat with lots of textures and a mirror. That helped distract him.
Try doing it on your chest while you're lying down! My baby tolerated that way better than on the floor. Or roll up a towel and put it under their armpits for support.
Every baby is different, so what works for one might not work for another. Don't get discouraged!
This phase is so tough. You're not alone.
