Am I only for families that are breastfeeding or co-sleeping only. Absolutely not, I work with a huge variety of families with different scenarios around sleep, and feeding.
If you are struggling with sleep and are finding it unsustainable then book a 15 min discovery call at the link in my bio and let’s chat and see if I can help.
I use no Cry it out or unresponsive methods.

Thank you Niamh for the lovely 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Google review. 💜
Life can happen and things change so I’m always flexible and can stick a pin 📌 in things until families are better able to make the changes that are needed to improve their sleep situation.

What’s up with the six month mark, where magically babies are not supposed to need breastmilk and should be able to sleep through the night 🤦🏻‍♀️ This is completely false on both parts.
Read through the post for correct information on breastfeeding past 6 months of age.

You do you, that’s the best advice I can give. You know your baby better than anyone. Do whatever you need to do and block out the things that make you doubt yourself and your baby.

It is biologically normal for your baby to feed to sleep and it’s impossible to stop them, especially in those early months. Please don’t worry about it. They will stop doing it eventually, without you having to make them. It’s like magic 🪄 power feeding to sleep 😴 .

Feeding to sleep has been pathologised recently. Meaning feeding to sleep has been treated like a medical problem or dysfunction, a condition to be diagnosed and corrected or eliminated rather than accepted as ordinary behavior. In other words “To make parents pay to fix something that is biologically normal”.

It’s NOT something you need to worry about.

Do what you need to do, the cot is not the gold standard. If co-sleeping just do it safely and follow the rules. The same way you follow rules for safe sleep in a cot. Every baby is different and some babies need more support around sleep than others. It does not mean you are doing anything wrong of that there is something wrong with your baby. You do you 💜😴

Breastfeeding and becoming a mom is a huge transition for any mom and it’s ok to be uncertain and completely blown away by how all consuming it is. Reach out for help if needed and don’t try to do it all on your own, especially if you have a partner. Ask them for help 💜
