The My Sleeping Baby Podcast with Eva Klein

In this episode, I sat down and chatted with Kate Kripke, who's a licensed therapist and postpartum anxiety specialist. We specifically discussed:

• Why high-achieving moms today might feel especially overwhelmed and stressed by new motherhood- and what we can do about it.
• What being mentally healthy and well ACTUALLY means (and what it doesn't mean).
• Why managing our own well-being is the BEST thing we can do for our kids' well-being and their sleep.
• Why feeling emotional discomfort is NOT always bad- and how to approach uncomfortable feelings instead.
• How to apply all these ideas to sleep training our little ones

Have a listen!

As new parents, we’re always striving to create a safe and comforting environment for our little ones, especially when it comes to their sleep. And it’s very common for babies and young children to sleep with a special toy or blanket to add that extra safety.

You probably remember your favourite plush animal or security blanket you slept with as a child!

That being said, safe sleep guidelines have changed dramatically since we were children. And it’s important to know when babies are allowed to sleep with a stuffed animal or lovey.

In this podcast, I’ll discuss when the right time is for babies to sleep with a stuffed animal or special sleep toy. I will also offer tips on how to introduce a lovey to your baby’s sleep routine. Have a listen!
