Sleep Baby Sleep: 8 Sleep Problems Solved!
"Sleepless nights are possibly the most soul-destroying of challenges that
parenthood throws at you. Bedtime battles and constant crying can try the patience
of the most devoted mums and dads."
With the assistance of some Baby Sleep System mums, Wendy has helped Practical Parenting offer tips and advice for eight of the most commonly asked sleep questions.
- I want to cut down on night feeds. Is it true that offering water instead of milk discourages babies from waking?
- How can I settle my baby if he's always fallen asleep on the breat or with a bottle?
- My daughter wakes up as soon as it's light. How can I encourage her to go back to sleep?
- What should I do if the 'dream feed' only lasts a few minutes and she wakes up hungry before morning?
- I have twins and when one wakes for a feed, should I rouse the other one and feed him too?
- My baby slept well for the first 6 months, but now she's waking all the time. What can I do?
- My son refuses to sleep during the day, but is then shattered by teatime. However, if he has an afternoon nap, he won't want to go to bed. What should I do?
- My baby's cries wake my older child. Should I rush in and soothe him?
When asked about the article, Wendy said "it's always nice to be asked for help by
Practical Parenting and their informative sleep articles. It's great when the message
that there are solutions to children's sleep problems is delivered to a wider audience."
