Why Keeping Your Baby Up Later Is Ruining Your Sleep. And What to Do Tonight

from The 10 Minute Newborn | Quick Tips for Newborn Parents · host Kristen Jacob

Keeping your baby up later to get a longer stretch at night feels completely logical. It's also one of the most common mistakes I see newborn moms make. It almost never works.In this episode I'm sharing the story of a newborn mom I'm currently working with. It's her third baby, she knows my methods (we worked together on her second baby too!), but she is still stuck in the same pattern. Her 8 week old was going to bed between 9:30 and 10:30pm every night and waking at 1am, then 3am, sometimes more. And for three consecutive weeks she told me the same thing: I know what you're going to say Kristen. I'm just not ready.I'll explain exactly what's happening in your baby's biology at 7 to 8 weeks that makes the earlier bedtime work and I'll read you the DM she sent me the morning after she finally made the move. It's that good.If your baby is 7 to 9 weeks old and bedtime feels like a battle every single night, this one's for you.Ready to stop guessing and start building a real plan?
