How to deal with the time change and baby’s routine.

Optimal. Wake. Time

The key to great naps, happy babies, and nighttime sleep.

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

I know your baby can stay awake longer than I recommend, BUT THAT DOESN'T MEAN THEY SHOULD.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Optimal Wake Time (OWT) is the age-appropriate amount of time baby SHOULD stay awake, not necessarily the amount of time they COULD stay awake.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This means, you help your baby asleep by their suggested OWT, even if they aren't showing sleepy cues. Often times, parents are shocked their baby will go to sleep easier, and sleep longer, when they implement an age-appropriate OWT.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I am very conservative in my wake windows, mainly because an overly tired baby will make your life seem completely unmanageable and it already probably feels that way since becoming a parent.

Every day you need to manage your baby's day. Full feeds. Asleep by Optimal Wake Time. Limiting nap time. 12-hours of daytime. You consistently and age-appropriately mix together these ingredients and you will get yourself the consistent nighttime sleep you want.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Too much wake time. Too much nap time. Not enough food. Too long of a day. And you will be up all night.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
There are deliberate choices you can make to get consistent nighttime sleep. Stop accepting that sleepless nights are inevitable and you have no control over them...because that isn't true.

Hi I'm Ann and I wanted to re-introduce myself bec

Hi I'm Ann and I wanted to re-introduce myself because there are a lot of new faces here. I am a single mom of 3. My daughter Frankie is 5, and my fraternal twins, Tommy and Teddy, are 2.5 years old.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I love sleeping. When I got pregnant with Frankie, the thought of sleepless nights terrified me, and I set out to figure out how to get her to sleep through the night, as fast as possible, without compromising her needs or leaving her in a room to cry. I still can't stand when my children cry. I go running. (FYI there is no crying involved in The Full Feedings Method)
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
My night nurse always told me I should write a book about infant sleep because it came so naturally to me, and The Full Feedings Method was born. I am so grateful I get to make sleep an option for so many families around the world.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Truth be told, the last 3 years of my life, while some of the greatest times, have also been some of the darkest. I watched my mother battle and succumb to pancreatic cancer. I took care of my father as he died of alcohol related disease. My grandmother passed. My dad's twin passed. And most recently my aunt passed (she was like a mom to me). Oh and I divorced and I am raising 3 little kids, on my own, without a mother to call or family nearby to help.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Life doesn't stop when you become a parent...and one thing I know is getting a full night of sleep makes navigating life's challenging times much more manageable.

I believe helping your baby into their age-appropr

I believe helping your baby into their age-appropriate daily routine, is the FASTEST, most gentle and loving way, to get them consistently sleeping through the night.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This means rocking them to sleep for their OWT, being flexible with feed times to ensure full daytime feeds, extending short naps so daytime sleep is on point with their routine, and managing their day each day to fully meet their needs.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This means you get to hold your baby and NOT feel guilty because you are helping them to achieve consistent nighttime sleep.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This means you put in a little more work that will pay off a million fold once baby is sleeping.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This means the fastest way to that precious nighttime sleep you're after, all while getting to enjoy your newborn baby!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Sounds like a win/win to me!
