Unwanted bed sharing
If bed sharing works for you, scroll on! 👋🏽
This video is for the exhausted parents who bed share out of pure desperation. They usually say they dislike cosleeping with their baby or toddler because no one sleeps well.
BUT if they try to put their baby or toddler back in their cot, all hell breaks loose - screaming, crying, and the whole house is awake for hours 😔
Sure you could persist, but who has the will power to push through 3am screaming 🙅🏽‍♂️
And you don’t want your baby or toddler to be so upset, you’d much rather find a strategy that supports them through the transition to sleeping all night in their own cot or bed ❤️
We’re glad you found us because there is a solution that works and gives your child gentle, loving support ⭐️
Come and join our Sombelle Paediatric Sleep Clinic Program so we can help you get your bed back and everyone sleeping soundly: loom.ly/MmuyIYM

After the blur of the early weeks and months, many parents find themselves ready to make adjustments to where, when, and how their baby sleeps. For some, this shift happens within the first six months; for others, closer to a yea...
Episode 71: What’s your ‘17 diapers’ story?
Переглядів 11День тому
Let’s talk about the ‘17 diapers’ trend happening on TikTok. Hannah is a mum who posted a video counting the number of dirty diapers she could find lying around her house. She found 17. She has a newborn and a toddler, so that’s probably 1 days’ worth of dirty nappies. Most would find this normal and unsurprising, but over 10,000 people jumped on her post to leave nasty comments criticising her...

Will a magnesium supplement improve my baby or toddler’s sleep?
Переглядів 114 днів тому
If you give your child a magnesium supplement that their body doesn't need, they will excrete it in their urine - put simply, it can be money down the toilet 🚽 👉🏽 Always consult your GP or paediatrician before starting your baby, toddler, or child on any type of supplement, and always purchase supplements from your pharmacist, not the internet. 🚨 Magnesium deficiency is rare. If you think your ...
It’s not traumatising to fall asleep somewhere different
Переглядів 314 днів тому
🤮 The anti-sleep brigade loves to convince parents that settling their baby or toddler in their cot or bed, is somehow going to inflict psychological trauma on the child. Every day they regurgitate this same alarming nonsense and it's getting in the way of families achieving the sleep health they need to function well 😠 🧐 The reality is, settling your baby or toddler in their own sleep space an...

Welcoming your own little baby to the fold is usually a pretty exciting and thrilling moment. Whilst the majority of new parents experience a lot of joy during this time, for some, the transition to parenthood is lined with trepidation.
