I love how you put baby and his/her needs first, without question. If something needs to change for the parents (e.g. rocking is causing back pain), you always approach it from the baby's point of view and how to accommodate that in a way that's best for baby. Because that's what we all want as parents, what's best for our little one! Furthermore, as a scientist myself, I love that your course is based on research and science on what is biologically normal and appropriate for them. Although our son is a pretty good sleeper, it just makes me feel that much more confident to have the course as a resource when we do hit a bump in the road, or when he seems to be changing his habits (as they seem to do very frequently)."

Do babies have a sleep problem? Or do adults have

Do babies have a sleep problem? Or do adults have an expectations problem? (Yeah I said it) Okay. So. What I mean by that: is it REALLY the 5-month-old baby who needs to be fixed because he won't sleep through the night? Or is it the healthcare provider who misled the parent to believe her 5-month-old should sleep all night without waking once which resulted in wildly unrealistic expectations that don't match developmentally? It's most often the expectations and not the baby. First of all, babies naturally wake up at night just like we adults do. We adjust pillows, snuggle up to our partners, kick covers off all without really waking up. So when babies cry out a bit, get on all fours and rock back and forth before laying back down again, or sit up for a bit all still counts as sleeping. Just because you have a neighbor who has a baby who 'sleeps through the night' at four months old does not give you the full picture. All babies are different and this does not mean it's the norm. She could have also done some sleep training that is not developmentally appropriate. So please do not compare your baby to another. Your baby is being a baby. Trust your gut and trust science and know that everything is all good. Want to set realistic expectations AND also get you and your baby the sleep you need? Join Baby Sleep Essentials!

Wouldn't it be wonderful if helping our babies sle

Wouldn't it be wonderful if helping our babies sleep were a one-and-done thing? I can just picture it now: walking out of the nursery, shutting the door, and proudly patting ourselves on the back as we walk off into the sunset with victory music playing in the background. Roll credits. Yeah, no. Babies aren't a set-it-and-forget-it crockpot model. Sleep will always ebb and flow just like it does for us adults. Yes - even IF you sleep train them - they won't magically stop being humans. Hence - when they hit the next milestone, you would be told you have got to sleep train again. Their bodies and minds are growing and learning so fast that it can disrupt sleep patterns (understandably). Rolling over, crawling, and walking are big milestones and it can be hard for them to turn their brain off to rest. Must. . .keep. . .practicing! 😝 Getting sick crops up, too, which can throw off a successful sleep routine. More wake-ups, more snuggles, more mama time. There are going to be multiple times when your little one will not have perfect and consistent sleep. It's okay and it's normal. Your baby isn't broken if all of a sudden sleep is out of whack--it isn't forever I PROMISE. Does your sleep ebb and flow? Remember that with your baby!

All that we know about the importance of sleep app

All that we know about the importance of sleep applies to babies too. 🧠 Our bodies need a chance to rest and recharge. Our brains need quality sleep. Getting enough sleep helps keep our immune systems strong, our memory sharp, and our growth and stress hormones regulated. Of course, I want all that for my baby too. But guess what - babies sleep like babies...and what their quality sleep looks like is different than what adult quality sleep looks like. One of the reasons newborns wake is - they need to eat + it protects them from SIDS. What are some other reasons babies wake and cry? they simply can't get the thing they need without your help (hungry, thirsty, itchy onesie, gassy tummy, lonely or scared - while you can get up to get the water or hug your partner - your baby cries in hopes you get the message. ) Your mental health matters AND your baby's needs and mental health matter too. All of my resources and information consider BOTH when I make suggestions. One of the things that helps take the pressure off parents is realistic expectations (ahhh finally feeling like you know exactly what's up and what to expect!) so that you can focus on the things that actually are in your control and finally feel like you got this! This is why I put together Baby Sleep Essentials - my online course to get sleep without sleep training - parent AND baby approved. It is open right now with community support and access to me and my team for any questions you have - Join us before it closes tonight.

👋Is your baby waking after 20, 30 or 45 minutes

👋Is your baby waking after 20, 30 or 45 minutes of going to sleep? Here is the most common reason why: The reason is they stayed awake for too long (also called over-tired). Don’t worry, over tiredness can be recovered and we will explain how to recover it, in our blog post #LinkInBio⠀⠀

Signs that your baby is overtired: ⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🛑Baby wakes up within an hour of going to bed or several times in the first 3-5 hours of the night. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀
🛑Baby wakes up *upset*😭 after 30-45 minutes of going to sleep for naps or bedtime, or both. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 🛑It gets progressively harder to put our baby to sleep for naps as the day goes on. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

We start out with the best of intentions and then

We start out with the best of intentions and then real life comes in and changes things. We've all been there, right? Either you end up bedsharing because you want to or the baby doesn't like the bassinet no matter how hard you try. I know someone who, with her first pregnancy, designed the most beautiful and elaborate nursery. Her baby slept with her until he was a toddler and she never used it once. Another friend bought an $800 stroller but ended up wearing her baby everywhere. You just never know! But hey, having a $300 laundry basket isn't so bad either. What's your expensive 'laundry basket' item you fully intended on using? Let's commiserate!
