fair point petsville, sorry you're struggling. My pointvis though she advocates doing it in week 2 with no warning of potential problems. there are no real advantages of bf in it just loads of mostly nonsense ff advantages. there's a little bit about supply and demand but no warning that giving formula will reduce Is that just a habit? If so, was the habit driven by an underlying digestive issue, like reflux, that your baby may have had? That’s the big question. Alison Scott-Wright is an expert in reflux, baby sleep issues and the author of The Sensational Baby Sleep Plan. She is a Mum and Grandmother, with a love for caring.

The Sensational Baby Sleep Plan: A Practical Guide to Sleep

You're getting lots of advice to early wean but don't do it. The recommendation is 6 months for a reason. it’s not forever! Everything is a phase, and at some point your baby will sleep through the evenings and you will have some adult time again. I know you know that, but it’s important to keep hearing it and saying it. It’s basically let your child cry until they settle themselves whilst you are repeating the same thing Oh my goodness, this sounds so hard. It’s completely normal to feel frustrated and resentful and burnt out by this, so let those feelings wash over you and don’t beat yourself up for them. A few thoughts: Throughout, one-on-one coaching sessions are also available if extra reassurance is needed, and there is 24/7 chat support via the smartphone app which we found especially helpful. We used it regularly each day to ask questions, and sometimes at night time where advisors were able to login to a live-stream camera and offer on-the-spot advice based on their observations of Winnie’s behaviour. On a couple of occasions when Winnie’s crying escalated in the small hours and it became apparent my soothing techniques were floundering, I used the app to receive guidance on what to do to get her settled. The support helped our confidence enormously.Your DS might surprise you and take milk from somebody else when you are not there. Might. No guaratees. Are there ever any??

In a recent Interview with Alison Scott-Wright, The Magic Sleep Fairy, Alison shed some light on some common baby sleep FAQs. Take a look below! Sleep position is another one that I touch on so many times - you’ll find information on this on my IGTV. I’m not sure one needs to read a book to know this and surprised so many people have bought this book to do it. weaning is an option as well. Clearly exclusively bf isn’t filling baby up enough, they usually go through a growth spurt around then. The book goes against the guidelines in parts. Alison justifies her advice well using an evidence based approach & parents must make decisions for themselves about what feels right for them (I.e having babies in the same room).I'm sorry to say that the book wasn't any good for me but there is another book - the no cry solution, which isn't bad. It gave some good ideas such as using a transitional object for when you transfer the baby from bed to cot. You could certainly try a cup, petsville. A doidy cup works for some (they lap at it when they're little) or a cup with a lid. How do you get a 6-month old to take longer naps? I don’t think her reflux is bad enough for medication. What age does it naturally improve?

The Sensational Baby Sleep Plan has your baby of 8-12 weeks old naturally sleeping 12-hours through the night. That’s a natural necessity of sleep; the day and night split, sun and moonlight. The best thing that worked for me was that I stopped bringing her onto the bed to feed her as she used to fall asleep and then would be annoyed when she woke up in her cot. I now cradle her (more tiring for me but it has halved wake ups as I think it keeps her more awake) while I feed her and then she is kinda half asleep/almost asleep when I put her down. Alison Scott-Wright is the UK’s leading baby, toddler and child sleep expert who also specialises in the management of ‘colic,’ acid reflux, feeding difficulties, dietary related intolerances and food allergies. Her work is endorsed by some of the top paediatric gastroenterologists and through invitation attends exclusive ESPGHAN Paediatric Gastroenterology conferences. In the last month, we have had some success because my mother said that we shouldn't jump everytime she makes a sound but to give her a few minutes. And it's true, sometimes, she's just being moany so I leave her and a lot of the time she falls asleep. But I don't leave her to cry out (escalating crying) - there is always a reason - whether there is wind, teething, etc.At 20 months old, my daughter Winifred’s sleep was regressing. She would wake in the middle of the night, needing warm milk and comfort, and then take forever to settle. Then came the 6am wakeups. My wife Georgia and I hoped it was a phase, but as the broken nights of sleep rolled on, Winnie’s habits became entrenched. With a second child on the way, we became desperate for sleep solutions. You have to make a decision but it does get easier as you start weaning him on solids. Not right away but he will get into routine.
