Why this information can change you
My story, where it al started...
Yeah, that is me in the picture! I was so tired, but I was at peace and happy about how and why I was doing things.
​
I don't remember what happened the first months when I had my first child; it was all a blur. I knew nothing about babies' sleep, and it was also a good thing (ignorance is bliss, right?).
​
But... it did take a toll on me once she turned 2, and her sleep habits were all over the place. I knew that the fact that I didn't set a healthy sleep foundation might have something to do with it.
After starting my sleep coaching journey, I decided it would be different with my second child, and that doesn't mean that I sleep-trained him on day one (I have never sleep-trained him!).
​
What I did:
-
Follow his sleepy cues
-
Enjoy cuddling and contact napping
-
Work with his internal clock
-
Build a schedule not just for him but for me too
-
Introduce some pre-sleep coaching strategies when he was capable and I was ready.
