I’ll be honest: I’ve been a bit nervous to talk about baby sleep on the internet 😅 BUT I have been committed to sharing our journey and sleep has been a huge part of it. When I was pregnant, there were three things I researched like my life depended on it: birth, breastfeeding, and baby sleep. I knew from the beginning that I was going to teach my son how to sleep (with a goal of having him sleeping through the night around 6ish months), but I realized pretty early that was going to require setting the right foundations in the early days rather than waiting until month 6 to start figuring it out. So this is part 1 of my sleep series walking you through our entire process of teaching Wes to sleep, starting at the veryyyy beginning. These are four sleep foundations we started working to set as soon as we got home from the hospital. I hope our journey could help some other first time moms who don’t know where to start! I’d love to hear from some other moms - what helped you in those early, sleep-deprived days? #motherhood #babysleep #firsttimemom #newborn #postpartum
