I want to change the misconception that sleep is something you have to give up when you become a parent.

“You should just follow your baby’s lead.” W

“You should just follow your baby’s lead.”
We’ve all heard it—but here’s the truth no one talks about…

In the newborn stage, a solely baby-led feeding approach can actually work against your baby’s growth, your milk supply, AND their sleep.

Why?
Because newborns aren’t born knowing how to feed efficiently. They get sleepy, they snack, and they don’t always wake when they need to eat.

That’s why pediatricians tell us to wake to feed. But it goes beyond that—your baby often needs a little extra guidance to take full, satisfying feeds that support development (and longer stretches of sleep!).

At full feedings®, we believe in a baby-led, parent-directed approach:
You stay responsive to your baby’s cues—but you also gently guide them toward what helps them thrive.

Because babies don’t always know best—and that’s exactly why they have you.

I get it—you’re craving that 2-hour break. 😮‍💨 But while some babies can handle long naps, for many, those 2-hour stretches can actually mess with both daytime and nighttime sleep.

Here’s why I recommend capping naps at 1 hour 30 minutes (except for those 18–21 month toddlers who can enjoy up to 2 hours 😉):

Babies can only sleep a certain number of hours in a 24-hour period—it’s biological.
If we want those dreamy 12-hour nights, we have to balance daytime sleep. Too much daytime sleep = less sleep left for night.

When naps run too long (2+ hours), it can:

😭 Lead to Over tiredness
Using too much of their sleep quota in one nap can throw off the rest of the day—causing skipped naps or late bedtimes = overtired baby = rough nights.

🥷🏻 Steal Sleep Drive
Long naps drain the “sleep tank,” making it harder for your little one to settle for later naps or bedtime.

🍼 Drop a Daytime Feed
If naps stretch beyond 3 hours between feeds, babies often miss a feeding—meaning they’ll make up for it at night (and yes, you should feed them if they’re hungry!).

👉🏻 That’s why limiting naps is an essential ingredient for consistent nighttime sleep.

If you’re wondering whether to stretch feeds or

If you’re wondering whether to stretch feeds or keep them closer together… here’s why closer is always better! 👶🏻🍼

When I say closer, I mean (flexible) full feedings every 2-3 hours during the day—NOT pushing to 3-4 hours apart.

Here’s why 👇

➕ MORE MILK, LESS NIGHT WAKINGS
Feeding more frequently usually adds an extra feed during the day = more total milk. Even if baby takes bigger feeds further apart, you often end up with less overall. More daytime milk means you can stop those night feeds sooner! 🙌

⏰ PROTECTS WAKE WINDOWS
Spacing feeds too far apart often leads to tricky timing—you’ll find yourself keeping baby awake too long just to feed, which = over tiredness and messy sleep.

😴 KEEPS DAYTIME SLEEP IN CHECK
Frequent feeds naturally limit long naps, so your little one isn’t sleeping the day away—making those dreamy 12-hour nights more achievable.

🤱🏻 BOOSTS MILK SUPPLY
The more often you feed (fully + frequently), the better your body can establish and maintain a solid supply!

There’s really no downside to feeding closer together—it’s one of the best things you can do to support better sleep now AND later.

Once your babe is sleeping through the night, then you can think about stretching feeds—as long as those wake windows stay age-appropriate! 😉

I love being a mom… but I’d be lying if I said

I love being a mom… but I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t completely exhausted most days. 😮‍💨

I want to soak in every moment.
I want to be present and grateful.
But sometimes…
I’m just too tired.

✨ I rush through bedtime because I need a second to breathe.
✨ I count down to when it’s quiet—then miss my kids the second they fall asleep.
✨ I look back at photos and wonder why I couldn’t enjoy those moments more when I was in them.

It’s not because I don’t love motherhood.
It’s because being this needed is overwhelming when you’re running on empty.

That’s exactly why I created full feedings®—because I knew it didn’t have to be this way. Moms deserve sleep, too.

Not just to survive motherhood… but to actually try to enjoy it. 💛

If you’re feeling this, know you’re not alone—and there’s a gentler way to get the rest you need without ever compromising your baby’s needs.

You deserve to feel like you again.

You want your baby to sleep… but you don’t want to let them cry it out.
I get it. 🫶

You want rest 😴 — but not at the cost of your baby’s needs.
You want a routine 📆 — but not one that feels rigid or unrealistic.
You want support 🤍 — but without the pressure to “sleep train” in a way that doesn’t sit right with you.

Same. That’s exactly why I created full feedings®.
A gentle, needs-based method that honors your baby and your intuition. No cry it out. No guilt. Just realistic sleep support you can start anytime — from birth through toddlerhood.

✨ You don’t have to choose between sleep and connection.
You can have both.

Is your baby actually getting full feedings… or

Is your baby actually getting full feedings… or just snacking all day? 👀🍼

If you’re stuck in the constant feed-sleep-repeat cycle (with ZERO long stretches of sleep to show for it), this might be why.

At full feedings®, we know that full, satisfying feeds during the day = better sleep at night.
Because hungry babies? They don’t sleep well. 😴

But what is a full feeding? And how much milk should your baby be taking per bottle as they grow?

I got you, mama. 💛 I break it down in this quick video + I’ve got a full blog with bottle-feeding guidelines by age to help you stop the snacking and start getting the sleep your family needs!
