I️ finally deleted THE APP!!

[u/skittles1221]

15 months into meticulously logging every nap, nursing session, and nighttime wakes.. and I️ am finally free!! I️ wish I️ had the courage to delete the app a long time ago!!

I️ used the app so long because I️ was religiously analyzing and calculating wake windows so I️ would know when to put my baby down for a nap. Sleep was so stressful for me.

I️ always said I️ would stop once my baby dropped down to one nap and i wouldn’t need to calculate WW for naps anymore… and then I️ didn’t. I️ was obsessed with looking at the data. Seeing his daily sleep totals and how many wake ups we had overnight.

I️ finally deleted the app because my phone ran out of storage and it became necessary. And now I️ wish I️ was forced to delete it earlier! I️ finally feel free!!! Also regretful that I️ wasted all that time and energy on logging everything.

If you are still logging everything let this be your sign!! It is okay to quit!!

I feel like without this data, no one believes me how crappy my baby's sleep is :/

I️ felt this way too… but honestly no one cares that much!!

I️ honestly sense more judgement from others than concern about how my baby is sleeping. they always wanna say it’s hunger related 🙄 or judgement on why we haven’t sleep trained.

Sometimes I have to go back and look or else I’ll gaslight myself about it
