HOW MY BABY SLEPT THROUGH THE NIGHT

How My Baby Finally Slept Through the Night- Thanks to MyBaby Sleepology!

Written by: Brooke, “Bump to Busy Mom” Blogger

As a mama of two, I know how difficult sleep regressions are. But the 4 month sleep regression really threw us for a loop. For a combination of reasons! My first baby has always been a great sleeper. My son is a completely different story. 

Since day one we had to pull out all the tricks. Putting him to sleep has been an uphill battle from the very beginning. Then he turned 4 months old and life became even harder for our whole family. 

At this point, he was still sleeping in our room. So my husband, son, and I were ALL sleep deprived. I dreaded bedtime because I knew it was going to take me at least two hours before I could leave the bedroom. 

I couldn’t be present. Instead, I was anxious about all the other things I needed to do, but couldn’t. I craved balance.

Even after leaving the room, I couldn’t relax because I was anticipating when he was going to wake up, realize I was gone, and scream his head off. 

He woke up SEVERAL times throughout the night demanding to be breastfed for comfort. It was clear he relied on me to nurse him to sleep.

I was drowning and was desperate for a solution after endless sleepless nights. I knew I wanted to begin sleep training but needed help.

Xan came into my life at the best time. She has been such a gift to our family. She taught me how to put my son to sleep without the fuss.

Our Sleep Struggles Before Sleep Training

I was seriously struggling to manage two kids. Between the constant night wakings, unpredictable naps, and frustration, I knew I needed to figure this out. 

While I understood the significance of routine and schedules, I had so many burning questions surrounding how our day should look to set my son up for success.

As a type A person, I also needed more structure. Full disclosure…I was losing my marbles just a little bit.

I am a mom blogger so I am always researching topics that help simplify motherhood. I read up on all the “sleep tips” online, but I had much more to learn and needed an expert. Having a sleep consultant on my team was life-changing.

How MyBaby Sleepology Helped

Xan called me for a 15 minute consultation. She listened to our struggles, goals, and shared which program would best fit our family. 

To kick off the program, Xan educated me on my son’s sleep needs and gave me a wealth of knowledge. Information, tips, and tricks beyond what you find online. 

There are a variety of sleep training methods. I chose to go with a slightly modified Ferber sleep training and it has been magical.

Her gentle structured approach helped us successfully sleep train our son within a week. I was pleasantly surprised at how quickly my son got the hang of sleep training.

His temperament improved on day 1. My husband and I were amazed at how quickly we saw a change.

We were all sleeping better AND we were so much happier.
