I am on a mission to simplify infant sleep. I thin

I am on a mission to simplify infant sleep. I think people overcomplicate it and make their lives much more difficult. I often say it's easy to get your baby to consistently sleep through the night, and while I truly believe that, it doesn't mean it's not hard work.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I believe that babies typically wake at night for 3 reasons:
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
• They are hungry.
• They are over tired.
• They got too much daytime sleep.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If you focus on managing baby's day from birth with the above 3 things in mind, you will easily establish and maintain consistent nighttime sleep without having the "sleep train" or do much of anything, besides meet their needs fully.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Sound simple? That's because it is. Stop overcomplicating it. I don't think your baby is manipulating you. I don't think they are waking because they miss you (sorry!). I don't think teething will dismantle your nighttime sleep. I don't think they are waking because they want their pacifier. I believe the 3 things stated above cause baby to wake, and then it can be a complete shit show, depending how you choose to respond.

Mama, we know you are working hard over there, trying to establish and maintain those full milk feedings for your baby. You know how important they are to consistent nighttime sleep, and I'm sure you've see some correlation to your baby being full and how well they sleep, day and night.

Having said that, achieving full feedings are a struggle for many, and we want you to know that you aren't alone.

Our very own @kelizabethq has written an amazing blog on "Troubleshooting Full Feedings for your Infant" and if you head over to fullfeedings.com/blog, you can read some amazing tips for working with your little one to establish and maintain those full feeds...

From birth, we want to work to establish and maintain full daytime feeds, so when it's age-appropriate (8 - 12 weeks old) baby's food needs are fully met during the daytime, so we have no need to eat at night.

Read that again. It's that simple.

Happy Mother’s Day to all the amazing mamas in m

Happy Mother’s Day to all the amazing mamas in my life and those I have the pleasure of working with every day. I hope you find time today to spend however you like. Days like this can be triggering for many, especially if you are struggling to conceive, lost a child or don’t have your mom. Let today be a reminder to keep faith in your unique journey and look for the slivers of joy in each day. Gratitude and pain can exist at the same time. Happiness and upset can too. It’s a practice and that’s all we can do. Wake up each day and let our lives unfold, with faith and trust that something greater is at work! 🤍

Nothing frustrates me more than parents who think

Nothing frustrates me more than parents who think they will never sleep again once they have a baby. This just isn’t true and I’m working hard to change the misconception that sleep is something we have to give up when we become parents.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Sleep is a basic human need and I am working hard to normalize infant sleep from birth. Getting good sleep for our babies and ourselves is ABSOLUTELY something we need to prioritize in our lives.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Inadequate sleep can cause a myriad of mental and physical health problems, for children and adults alike and I believe we need to make infant sleep the norm, and not the exception.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I created The Full Feedings Method to show parents how easy it is to establish consistent nighttime sleep by 8 - 12 weeks old, WITHOUT crying it out. With a focus on meeting baby’s food and sleep needs fully at each and every age, The Full Feedings Method is a simple way-of-life that can be safely implemented from birth and alleviates the need for ‘sleep training’.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
You can be responsive to your baby AND get sleep.
You can hold your baby AND get sleep.
You can love your baby AND get sleep.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.

Thinking about introducing solids, mama? Whether b

Thinking about introducing solids, mama? Whether baby is 4 months or 6 months+, when you decide it's time to introduce solids, my best advice is to GO SLOW.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Solids can often disrupt nighttime sleep, because they fill baby but don't satiate calorically. So when we start to offer solids, it can cause baby to drink less milk and/or not increase milk to "maintain" full feeds, as they grow and their needs change. And when this happens, we can see baby "regress" and need to go back to feeding at night. This is SUPER common and such an easy fix.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I view solids in the first year as a way for baby to practice chewing/eating AND a way to rule out food allergies. You always want to offer milk first, solids second until closer to 11 months old, and you want to pay attention to baby's milk intake + sleep when you start solids, to ensure you aren't causing your own sleep issue.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If you have recently introduced solids and you feel like you are "regressing" with your sleep, temporarily stop solids, re-establish full milk feeds, and then slowly bring the solids back into the mix...just not at the expense of your consistent nighttime sleep.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I have an awesome PDF in my Infant Online Program that breaks this down for you. It's called The Sweet Potato Example and compares the calories in milk vs. a sweet potato, to show you why milk should remain as baby's primary source of nutrition until 12+ months...
