@ellesmaddry: 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
When did your baby start sleeping longer stretches?!

Okay, second time Mom and your order of feeding during the night is genius. Definitely trying this tonight!

My problem is my daughter will poop before boob one, during boob one and then I’d change her and then she’d poop again after boob two during night feeds 😂😂😂

Disclaimer: this is MY experience with MY baby! This is what helped US! If it doesn’t work for you baby, that’s ok!! Just trying to share our experience so it could help other first-time moms who don’t know where to start.

I have a 2 and a half week old, I’ve done very similar things with her routine (haven’t started bath yet) but she’s doing 6-8 hour stretches at night and still gaining weight wonderfully! She’s currently asleep in a bright room with music playing and I vacuumed without waking her 💪

I did all of this (minus the SNOO) without even thinking about it, just felt natural to me. My baby is 3 months and a great sleeper!

This is really helpful! I have a question, would you burp him after every feed at night? I’ve been told not to burp my baby at night so to not wake her.. but that worries me

Also a ftm and have done almost this exact same strategy! Snoo, mid-feed change and swaddle, contact and on the go naps during the day, etc. Our girl has given us long night stretches pretty much since week 3

I did most all of these things (minus the snoo) and I now have an almost 2 year old that I put down completely awake and he puts himself to sleep. It’s amazing 🤣

Love that the nighttime feeding routine too!!! It’s perfect unless they blow out after that which happened to me more times than I wanted 😂

What did you do when he would resist going straight back in the bassinet at night?
