Do you let your little ones have music on to help them fall asleep? My partner and I are torn on how long the music should play for and what kind of music we should allow at bed time.

I played white noise when they were born. I personally need some kind of noise to fall asleep, fan or the heater.

We have been using the Hatch for several years now and can program it to come on at a certain time with specific colored and specific sounds. We’ve also attempted to use it to let the kid know when they can get up in the morning (I.e., if the Hatch is green, it’s okay to go get mommy/daddy to play/breakfast/school readiness routine). We have a kid that likes to wake up around 5:30 but set the green light on the hatch at around 6:15. after some effort, it works most of the time. If we’re awake and walking around before the light turns green in his room, we can hear him playing.

3.5 range. And it’s been on and off with him. I think just his natural stubbornness

I’m interested in the music comments, we’ve had no luck there. We use white noise machines for both our toddlers.

Bedtime routine involves no music. It’s better long term not to develop dependence on outside noises to fall asleep.

We've done classical music at bedtime for both kids 10 and 6.since they were born. We've never had sleep issues with either of them.

One of ex’s friends who is I met twice, has been in touch, him and his wife, like commenting on some of my posts occasionally (we are just fb friends and IG friends). I never saw them since. Then the friend texts asking if I am seeing someone and that he wants to set me up with someone. He felt awkward doing that, I thanked him for thinking of me, but then he said we all told your ex he is an idiot for letting you go and they asked my ex it they could still be touch with me and he said yes.

Every night for like the past month I’ve been getting incredibly emotional about adulthood. I miss the lack of responsibility, the simplicity of life, friends were always around, and less pressure to be successful.

I’m 3 years out of college now so it’s not like I just started doing this stuff, but I am feeling the exact same feeling as I did when I first started work and just wanted to be back in college. I know I just need to grow up and accept that’s how life is but it’s incredibly upsetting
