About this listen

Imagine this – your 6 month old baby wakes at least 5 times every night, sometimes very briefly and other times for up to 2 hours 😥 You’ve rocked and shooshed your baby for so long that your body aches every day. The minute your head hits the pillow your baby wakes again. In a state of desperation you open Instagram and there it is in big, bold font, with a picture of a peaceful, well rested mother. It reads:

It’s normal for babies to wake in the night”.

Ughhh. 😒

In today’s episode, Dr Fallon & Dr Laura (PhDs, Sleep Practitioners) unpack this very toxic statement, because parents deserve better.
