Please don’t skip naps, fam! Worst news ever, right? I know, I know, baby/toddler naps can cause a lot of anxiety and make you feel frustrated, trapped at home or married to a routine.

But, while you are working to ESTABLISH consistent nighttime sleep, I think consistent naps (at age-appropriate wake times) are an essential ingredient. Why is that?

Because this is how we prevent baby from becoming over tired in any period and that is what helps achieve the consistent nighttime sleep we all need.

Skip a nap and baby’s cortisol will rise, and this alone can cause difficult feeds and difficult sleeps (both day and night).

Once you have established the nighttime sleep you desire, feel free to roll the dice if you want to push it with naps, just don’t do so at the expense of your nighttime sleep…that’s my opinion anyways.

Don’t believe me? Try skipping a nap and see what happens…😩

And remember, if baby is already in an overtired state, they will 8,000,000% need help getting to sleep at their age-appropriate time, so help them do that and try to enjoy it too… Holding/helping your baby to sleep is actually a really helpful thing from a sleep perspective, and a mental health perspective too! Obviously we don’t want this for every nap and we will get to the self-soothing (I promise) but in the meantime, try to enjoy it!!!

How often should you be feeding your baby?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This is a common question I get from new parents and the answer may surprise you. I believe that it's acceptable to feed your baby fully, every 2-3 hours, until about 9 months old.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I believe going longer than 3 hours between feeds can compromise your baby's ability to remain fully fed during the daytime hours, which is an essential ingredient to consistent nighttime sleep.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
When you go longer than 3 hours between feeds, you typically have 1 less feed per day, and even if your baby is able to eat slightly more per feed, the daytime total will typically be less than if you feed closer together.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
As an example:
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
3 hours (or less) between feeds = 5 feeds per day x 6oz per feed = 30oz per day
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
4 hours between feeds = 4 feeds per day x 7oz per feed = 28oz per day
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
2oz more food per day may not seem like a big deal to you, but just a few more oz of food per day can make a massive impact on your baby's ability to consistently sleep at night, which is something I'm assuming you want.

If you’re doing the same thing and *hoping* your baby’s sleep is going to just get better, you may be waiting for a minute!

The truth is, the parents who are getting consistent nighttime sleep are making the deliberate choice to work towards that, each and every day. They aren’t ‘lucky’ or ‘blessed’ with good sleepers, although some parents ‘naturally’ have great sleepers because they are intuitively making sure baby’s needs are fully met.

If you are exhausted and tired of being exhausted and tired, know you have a choice and can begin at any age (as long as your baby or toddler are still napping) to achieve consistent nighttime sleep for your family…WITHOUT crying it out or ‘sleep training’…

Little miss sleeps from 7pm to 7am!!! Inspired by

Little miss sleeps from 7pm to 7am!!! Inspired by a testimonial from one of the many amazing parents I have the privilege of helping achieve consistent nighttime sleep for their family, all WITHOUT crying it out or sleep training!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Honestly, it's the joy of my life to be able to help make sleep a reality for thousands of families all over the world.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If you are dealing with sleepless nights in parenthood, you are not alone as more than half of parents with babies 6 months of age and under are getting just 1-3 hours of uninterrupted sleep per night. This statistic is mind blowing considering the @cdcgov recommends 7+ hours of sleep for adults aged 18 - 60 years old.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Stop accepting sleepless nights as "normal" in parenthood and let me teach you a simple 3-step needs-based method to achieve consistent nighttime sleep. Again, there is absolutely NO CRY IT OUT INVOLVED…

Listen, I always say it’s easy to get your baby

Listen, I always say it’s easy to get your baby to consistently sleep through the night WITHOUT crying it out…but that doesn’t mean it isn’t hard work.

Each day parents are working hard to choose sleep for their family.

They are working to establish and maintain full feedings. They are working to make sure baby doesn’t stay awake longer than is age-appropriate.
They are working to making sure they limit baby’s daytime sleep.
They are working to maintain bedtime.
They are working hard.

They are constantly managing their baby’s flexible routine and making choices moment to moment to ensure all of the above happens every single day, at every single age.

It’s work. But it’s the most important work parents should be doing because it ensures baby’s needs are fully met and consistent nighttime sleep is consistently possible. And that makes the whole house VERY happy!

Do you love how consistent I am with the word consistent!?
