Listen "Episode 50: Lucy’s story"
Episode Synopsis
To celebrate our 50th episode, we are sharing the story of 6.5 month old baby *Lucy. Dr Laura explains the struggles Lucy’s parents were facing with her sleep and settling, including difficult settling and up to 8 overnight wakes. Lucy’s parents felt exhausted and nervous about making changes after reading conflicting advice online. Hear how Laura carefully crafted an approach to suit Lucy’s temperament and unique sleep needs, whilst also ensuring the approach felt comfortable for Lucy’s parents. Lucy’s sleep quickly improved and she’s still sleeping well several months on.
Tune in to learn about how you too can support strong sleep health in your baby or toddler, as Dr Fallon & Dr Laura (PhD’s) discuss this interesting case study.
Parents questions are also answered, including:
Do sleep requirements increase when babies start day care?
How do naps influence night time sleep?
How long do we try an approach before giving up and trying something new?
Will settling be easier if our baby is in their own bedroom?
