11.01.2022 I'm not going to lie, they're shit. Yep they are, there is no way to avoid them and they really can make life so hard. Throw them in at the common times for leaps, teething, talking, crawling and walking 4,8,12,18 & 24 months and it is hard to know what is causing what. I know exactly how you feel because in the last few days we are seeing all of the signs of the next sleep regression for my little guy. The big 18 month sleep regression, honestly it still has me scarred fro...m my eldest because the first time round I knew nothing of what I know now. There are few things that can make you feel better during the heights of sleep deprivation but if you, like me are going through a sleep regression with your little one there are things you can actively do to make it a little less difficult on you. These tips below are things I am already putting in place for me and my family over the next few weeks while we weather the regression and support our little guy through such a big developmental time. Prepare, my morning tomorrow will be spent doing a few batch cooks for dinners and snacks for the kids and for us the parents, so if we do have some rough nights dinner is already in the freezer and we don't end up eating pizza 3 nights in a row. I am a firm believer that knowledge is power so if I know a big leap is happening or a regression I always have a little read to get a fresh idea of what is happening for my little people so I know how to best support it, I also find a bit of understanding about what is happening in that little brain of theirs makes it a lot easier for me to be understanding and empathetic to what they are going through. Lighten the load, I am restricting the amount of clients I take in at once so I will still support them at the level they need but I will still support myself and my family without burning out. Consistency, we have a few things that are not movable but many are so anything that would push a late night or cause a late lunch sleep I am putting on the back burner, where things can't be moved we are doing what we can to keep things routine for the little man. Babies thrive on routine and this is the best way to support them through heightened development periods. 1:1 engaged time with mum and dad. For both of the kiddlets this is so important. We are likely going to have grumpy days and will have more down time so we will make sure that both of the kids are getting extra 1:1 wether reading a book, a park trip, the pool, hide & seek or chasey around the house they will feel better for it and so will we. lastly we are being kind to ourselves, shit can wait, no one really cares if we don't get to the weeding or the lawn gets a little messy the important thing is that we support each other and our mental health, physical and emotional health through the times of challenge. Are you in a regression? Let me know in the comments and share your favourite survival tip x

10.01.2022 It's ok to feel like this, in fact it is normal!!!! While the pure act of becoming a mother makes you more resilient and tolerant of boredom and repetition in your day it does not mean that it won't take its toll on you. You are a human at the end of the day and when you factor in your work load (mental and physical), your self care limits, your sleep fragmentation it is only normal to want a bit of time to your self. Motherhood is amazing but it is also bloody hard and we ...shouldn't be ashamed to say it! What's your biggest bugbear? Leave it in the comments Mine has to be food!! Love it one day won't touch it the next.... give me snacks, but I don't want dinner and the biggest from miss 4 "I don't like it if it's green"

05.01.2022 Deciding to get help for your babies sleep is such a big one. I remember debating and stressing for weeks and thinking surely I can work this out myself! I remember feeling like a absolute fail of a mum because I could. Not. Put. Her. Down. When I finally broke and got help I also remember thinking there was so much I didn't know and wouldn't know if I didn't ask for help. I am so glad I not only was able to gently support my girl to get the sleep she so desperately needed,... shift that feed to sleep association and now go on to help other mums do the same. I am a firm believer in " if it's not a problem, it's not a problem" but if you want to join my list of mums saying amazing things about life with sleep just send me a dm or a message xx
