Infant sleep without sleep training? Sounds great,

Infant sleep without sleep training? Sounds great, right? Almost too good to be true? Well…it’s not with The Full Feedings Method®

You can easily establish and maintain consistent nighttime sleep, without “crying it out” or sleep training by doing the following:

• DON’T LET BABY BECOME OVERTIRED. This varies by age but to give you an idea of age-appropriate wake windows:

3 months = asleep every 80 minutes
6 months = asleep every 110 minutes
9 months = asleep every 150 minutes
12 months = asleep every 180 minutes

• MAKE SURE BABY IS FULLY FED DURING THE DAYTIME HOURS. Feed baby fully during the day, so there is no “need” to feed at night. Dreamfeed (10 - 11pm) is included in “daytime”.

2 months = 6-7 full feeds during the day
3 months = 5-6 full feeds during the day
4 - 9 months = 5 full feeds during the day
9+ months = 4 - 5 full feeds during the day

• LIMIT DAYTIME SLEEP. Either you wake your baby during the day, or they will wake you at night. We must ALWAYS and AGE-APPROPRIATELY limit daytime sleep, so 12-hours of nighttime sleep is consistently possible.

3 months = 5.5 hours or less of daytime sleep
6 months = 3.5 hours or less of daytime sleep
9 months = 3 hours or less of daytime sleep
12 months = 2.5 hours or less of daytime sleep

I promise promise promise if you work on the above, each and every day, you will establish and maintain consistent nighttime sleep and alleviate the need to “sleep train”, “cry it out”, or do any other drastic measure parents resort to when they’ve finally had enough of the sleep deprivation.

Infant sleep is something you choose for your fami

Infant sleep is something you choose for your family.

It is a deliberate choice that families make, each and every day.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
They deliberately choose to pay attention to their baby's daytime.
They deliberately choose to work towards full feedings.
They deliberately choose to limit nap time.
They deliberately choose to ensure their baby doesn't become overtired in any wake period.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
By consistently and age-appropriately doing this, they are able to establish and maintain consistent nighttime sleep.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
By doing this they avoid having to "sleep train" or "cry it out" out of desperation from pure exhaustion.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Sleep is a way of life you can and should choose to implement from birth and I created The Full Feedings Method® to teach you exactly how to choose sleep for your family.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
But don't worry, if you didn't start from birth, you can still choose sleep via The Full Feedings Method® at any age, as long as your baby or toddler is still napping!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Quit hoping things are just going to get better, and let me help prioritize sleep for your family!

To nights we will never forget…

Thank you @camcountry for being extraordinary in every way. Your music. Your passion. Your soul. Your love. Your laughter. Your journey. Your life. We felt it ALL tonight. It felt like you were singing ‘Village’ directly to me…for my parents who have gone and now ‘have a front row seat to watch me live my life well…’

Frankie and I lived well tonight, as we always strive to do, and it felt like ‘they’ were right there with us!

Keep going. Keep shining. THANK YOU for pouring your heart and soul into your music. We appreciate it more than you know!

Love, Ann & Frankie🤍

I promise you that prioritizing sleep for yourself

I promise you that prioritizing sleep for yourself and your family is the best decision you can make. I know I’m like OD’ing on a @drmattwalker quote, but that’s because it’s true…’sleep is a non-negotiable biological necessity’. It’s a need, not a want, and I’m so sick of seeing parents justify the lack of a basic human need to themselves (and orhers) and watching ‘professionals’ try to convince parents that sleep deprivation is normal part of parenthood. (It’s not.)

It’s almost like parents have convinced themselves to accept sleep deprivation as some “rite of passage” into parenthood. They have resigned themselves to this false notion of being a helpless victim of sleepless nights and accept there’s nothing they can do to change this. And in some cases, parents have even started talking about the sleep deprivation with a sense of pride & accomplishment, as if she who sleeps the least, loves the most.

This is so backwards to me. If we continue to perpetuate the lack of a back human need to parents, things will never change.

I am offering you an alternative. A full night of sleep for any parent who wants it, without having to ‘sleep train’ or ‘cry it out’. I believe establishing and maintaining infant sleep from birth is an essential ingredient to shift the world’s parents from barely surviving each day to thriving in their lives.

Let me help you prioritize sleep for your family…

If someone scared you into thinking sleepless nigh

If someone scared you into thinking sleepless nights go hand-in-hand with becoming a parent, I am very sorry.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
You were given inaccurate information.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Not only can you easily get your baby to sleep through the night by 8 - 12 weeks old, but you can do so:
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
• WITHOUT crying it out.
• WITH holding your baby.
• WITH love and comfort.
• WITHOUT compromising your baby's needs.
• WITHOUT withholding food to force sleep.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I am on a mission to change what "sleep training" means... I have created The Full Feedings method to revolutionize how we look at infant sleep, and have made it possible to begin from birth to work on meeting your baby's food and sleep needs fully, and consistent nighttime sleep naturally follows. There is nothing to "do" to get your baby to sleep, because by meeting their needs fully, at each and every age, you will get your sleep and keep your sleep!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Stop accepting lack of a basic human need as "normal"... It's not and anyone who tells you otherwise is ill-informed on how important sleep is for all human beings.
