Do people have opinions about sleep training being damaging? Yup.

39. Listen to this if you feel like you’ve tried everything to improve baby sleep...

Sleep Talking Moms

I would be rich if I had a dollar for every time I heard this statement, “We’ve tried everything but nothing works. Our baby/toddler/child just won’t sleep!” Not only do I hear this a lot, I go on to work with many of these families and we are able to successfully get their child sleeping better!

So I thought I would share what might be happening if you find yourself uttering the statement above. In this episode I talk about why you may be feeling this way and what you might be missing.

38. What sleep coaching method should you use? Listen to find out!

Sleep Talking Moms

01/23/23 • 11 min

A common concern I hear is: "How do I teach my baby to fall asleep without my help?" The answer, "Sleep coaching!" Now, there is WAY more to sleep coaching than just the sleep coaching method that you use but I thought it would be helpful to share my run down of the different options.

In this episode I'll be sharing about what I call the Sleep Coaching Method Continuum. Every family has different priorities, goals, and personalities and with the variety of methods out there, we can find the right fit for you!

35. Baby waking out of hunger at night? Or is something else going on...

Sleep Talking Moms

12/12/22 • 16 min

Most parents survive the newborn phase okay, with all its sleeplessness and on-demand feedings. (Don't get me wrong, it's still ROUGH but we expect that with a newborn!)

However after 4+ months of interrupted sleep it can really start to wear on you! This is the time that I hear from a lot of parents because they don't feel like they can continue functioning at their current level of sleep deprivation much longer.

One of the most common questions that comes my way is: *How do I know if my baby still needs a feeding overnight?*

In today's episode, we will look at whether your baby still needs a night feed, and if they don't- how to remove those night feeds!

34. Let’s talk about crying and sleep!

Sleep Talking Moms

11/28/22 • 10 min

Crying is the single biggest reason why people are hesitant to work on improving sleep with their children. And I get it! Just because I'm a sleep consultant does not mean that I relish making children cry.

BUT I do think that as a whole, our society has gone a little (or a LOT!) overboard on never letting children cry. In this newest episode I'll be sharing 4 main re-frames for how we think about crying.

PLUS don't forget to join my FREE 3 Day Crying Challenge. Want to make a sleep change but scared of tears? Let's work together to re-frame your thoughts around crying: https://freebie.allthesleeps.com/cryingchallenge
