25.01.2022 SLEEP TRAINING AND NEWBORNS: Quick Feeding Tip One of your main goals in the first two weeks is to establish a good feeding schedule and work on good quality feedings at feed times. If you don't do this you could easily become trapped in a routine or habit of "snacking and snoozing".... Be flexible but try to keep feed times 2-3 hours apart. A feed shouldn't last longer than 30 min unless your baby has medical conditions. What do you remember from your first two weeks of parenthood? I remember being exhausted! Don't forget, be good to yourself and take naps where you can. Happy sleeping, Christine

21.01.2022 Pregnancy is a joyful yet challenging journey of being a mother. You get to hear your baby's heartbeat, feel the kicks in your belly but at the same gives you morning sickness. Here are tips on how to relieve vomiting during pregnancy. Before bedtime, eat high protein food such as cheese and lean meat. This will help keep something in your stomach. ... Before getting out of bed ,munch any dry food. Crackers or toast will reduce the vomiting During the whole day keep your self-hydrated. Drink plenty of water, ginger or peppermint tea which helps on the dizziness and don't forget ice chips. Share your experiences and what worked for you on the comment #SuperTips See more

21.01.2022 I get this question all the time.... WHY DOES MY BABY WAKE AS SOON AS I PUT HER DOWN? This is one of the many frustrations when your baby is not a good sleeper. Finally your baby has fallen asleep in your arms and you want to put her down in her cot. You quietly tiptoe towards your babys cot and slowly lower her into her cot... Yet the minute she hits the mattress, she opens her eyes and starts crying! NO!! WHY IS THIS HAPPENING?? Well there is a very good reason for it When your baby falls asleep in your arms, her body and brains goes into sleep mode. The brain relaxes the body and gets ready to sleep. When you move your baby to her cot, your babys body is moving (It sounds a bit silly, but the brain communicates with the body all the time. The brain determines what the body is doing). Her brain thinks why is my body moving?. Im supposed to sleep. Im in sleep mode. The brain thinks the body is in danger so he brings the body out of sleep instead of deeper into sleep. It is very important for the baby to fall asleep where she is going to wake up and that is in her cot. She needs to be wide awake, not drowsy, when you transfer her to her cot for a sleep (Day & Night). You will see, her sleep will improve within a day or two. Do you need help with your baby's sleep? Comment below Christine :)

16.01.2022 #Question How to introduce your toddler to the new baby? Toddlers are very affectionate yet self-centered. It is right to prepare a toddler to welcome a new baby to avoid conflict. Let me share some ways how to do that.... 1. Let the toddler feel that the baby is someone she needs to take care off. Gives a sense of belongingness when she is part of the activities for the new baby. 2. It is best to introduce the new baby when still in the mums tummy, start practicing how to call and touch the baby. It give the feeling of excitement to the toddler to expect a baby coming. 3. Continue the normal routine. Pre or post-delivery, the toddlers routine should still be the same. Sleep, meals, and playtime. Still make time and give them attention. Share on the comments your experiences and what worked for you. See more

14.01.2022 #Question Does food affect the baby's sleep? ..... the answer is Yes! Too much sugar keeps the baby/toddler energy up which may keep them awake even if it is bed time. Another, are food containing salicylates which makes babies restless. It is naturally found on healthy foods like broccoli, orange and tomatoes. So me might want to avoid those during dinner. ... It is best to establish a good feeding schedule and be mindful of the feed times. If you want more information, comment below Happy sleeping, Christine See more

12.01.2022 #SuperTips This is the one million dollar question for many parents. Having one baby who keeps on waking up every hour at night exhausts you what if more if you have two. It can be very frustrating and challenging if you’ve been struggling for weeks or months to get your babies to sleep and then they only sleep for an hour... often even less.... Here is some #SuperTips for parents blessed with twins. Even they are twins it does not mean that they are not 2 different babies. 2 Important things: Treat them like individuals Separate their rooms Once they are sleep trained you can put them back together in one room.

11.01.2022 #SuperTips It's not just our babies that benefit from a good night's sleep, it's us parents too. Lack of sleep affects every aspect of our life and how we function. When we get enough sleep we tend to be happier and less anxious, our memory works better and we perform job related duties better. Fatigue related accidents and fatalities is a serious worldwide problem.... Adults need an average of 8 hours sleep a night. Some get by with 7 hours and others love and need 9-10 hours. Those who get less than 7 hours are almost always sleep deprived. #Supertips of this week Avoid caffeine if it over stimulates you. Alcohol makes you sleepy at first but can cause wakefulness later during the night. Sleep professionals caution that any substance that affects the nervous system is likely to have an effect on our sleep. Nicotine, a stimulant drug is an example. Even though you’re not a smoker, other people’s secondary smoke may make it hard for you to get to sleep. Here’s a biggie: avoid screen time 1-2hours before bed and keep the lights dimmed. If your baby/toddler who is keeping you awake comment "Me" below and I will be glad to help you. See more

09.01.2022 Did you know ? I guess a lot of you will know this one Sleep affects your MOOD: This is a big one for a lot of people. While some children (AND Adults) wont get too cranky, some get downright monstrous. Behaviour problems have been linked to sleep deprivation.

09.01.2022 Sharing with you the story of this cute baby Islay. We started our program when my husband had just had his hernia operation (so wasnt able to do anything), we were in the middle of an IVF cycle, our daughter Islay had the worst nappy rash (Christine even sent us some cream!) and Islay also cut her gum (which bled for over 24hrs). But despite all this we worked hard and got our daughter sleeping through the night (no more dream feeds) without a dummy and without being rocked to sleep. Its hard work but it pays off. Thank you so much Christine. Drop a or feel free to comment below. #wins #happysleepers #testimonial

07.01.2022 SLEEP IS ESSENTIAL Sleeping is absolutely essential and not getting enough quality sleep is extremely detrimental, not to mention disruptive, for a baby, for their parents and for their entire family.

The team at Happy Sleepers are here, we are OPEN and we are ready to help you to teach your baby (or toddler) how to self-settle and fall asleep independently. In keeping with social distancing requirements, we have phone and video chat consultations available that include ongoing phone and SMS support as you progress through the 14 day programme. Each package is structured for your child's age and individual needs and we DO NOT endorse the "Cry It Out" method. Our packages are suitable from newborns through to toddlers and have seen phenomenal success with many happy sleepers in the past. If you want more information, please say "YES PLEASE"

05.01.2022 #Question How can you sleep train a baby if you have another child in the house? This is one of the most common questions I get asked and this prevents people from making changes much longer than it should because you have this fear that one child is going to wake up the other child. And now I’m going to have both children awake. And that’s going to be a nightmare.... So the fear of that scenario prevents people from making any kind of positive change. I’m here to tell you that the harsh reality is that yes, you might have a night or two where one child does wake up the other child. I mean most of us do not live in houses large enough to hide from a child who’s crying. It’s inevitable, it’s going to happen. And my best advice is to just make peace with it. That’s all you can do. It’s going to be a rough night or two as we train this baby to sleep well. The good news is though, that once you go through just a couple of rough nights, then you're going to have a situation in which baby and siblings (who hopefully sleep well already) are going down wonderfully and sleeping all night.

02.01.2022 WHEN CAN I MOVE MY TODDLER TO A BIG BED? Its always a very exciting time for parents and toddlers to transition from a cot to a big boy bed. Obviously the toddler likes his new bed and for some reason parents just cant wait to move the baby (who is not a baby anymore) into a big bed. Most parents do this transition early and then they end up with a child running around in the house in the middle of the night. In my opinion, a toddler should not move out of his cot befor...e the age of 2.5 years 3 years. Mentally and psychologically your toddler needs to be ready to move to a toddler bed. He needs to understand the concept Its sleepy time now and he needs to stay in his bed. He needs to understand that he is not allowed to get up in the middle of the night (unless he wants to go to the toilet if he is already toilet trained) and if he does get up, there will be a consequence. If your child does not understand that, he is not ready to move to a toddler bed. You will end up in a situation where your child keeps getting up in the middle of the night and you will have to get up to take him back. At the end of the day youre going to be so tired that youre going to put your toddler in your bed so you can just get some sleep. Co-sleeping will then start other problems. Do you need help with your toddler's sleep? Comment below Good luck Christine
