Comparison is the thief of joy…..

Especially when it comes to sleep and especially when you accidentally get talking to THAT MUM from  your NCT/baby massage/antenatal class or baby group.

You know the one……her baby slept through the night at 6/7/8 weeks of age.

The first thing we can do to protect ourselves and our families is to STAY AT HOME. Here in the UK, we are not on government-enforced lockdown YET. But News media has shown that many people are ignoring the advice to socially distance and so it may not be long before a lockdown is imposed. 

Are you all set for the Holidays or too tired to care because your soooo sleep deprived?

This little individual can be a quirky creature of habit , they like what they like & they like things “just so” & have a mind of their own. â €
These low energy but highly focused individuals are like deep thinkers, independent but impatient, they watch & observe before diving into an activity or exploring but once they are engaged they will happily play, explore alone but will not appreciate you interrupting or interfering with them. â €
These are the babies that don’t like changes to their daily routine at all, they don’t like high energy, noisy or excitable activities . This will be the baby that cries and gets upset & easily overwhelmed in lively noisy music classes but love quiet stories or sensory activities.

Newborns and sleeping! What’s normal and what can i expect?

The Confident Curious Socialite......& How To Get Them To Go To Sleep!

How to stop feeding to sleep. 

Do you co-sleep reluctantly or fearfully?

I co-slept with my daughter when she was newborn, i did it because she wasn't always keen to settle in her Moses basket at first and i was exhausted...I’m glad I did it and I’d do it again ( if i had another baby) I’m convinced its why she was such a good sleeper and sleeping through by 8 weeks ( although that wasn’t my intention.)

I’m not your average sleep consultant, I don’t believe rocking/feeding/cuddling to sleep are bad habits. ( but i do think if you use these methods to settle them exclusively you could face some challenges later if you want to stop click here to read more)  I co-slept and breastfed on demand and still got my daughter sleeping through the night relatively early on ( 8 weeks old - click here to read up on how i did it!)

Many of the mums I  meet confess to me that they co-sleep when they find out I’m a more holistic gentle sleep coach, its something they often won't admit to anyone outside of their circle because of the bad press that co-sleeping often gets.
