  • Thank you

    Thank you for bringing light to the most important element of motherhood! I love every episode. I am a fellow sleep consultant and mum of three who has experienced the throes of sleep deprivation and severe mental health issues postpartum. Sleep training and its health-bolstering underpinnings transformed my whole family’s life for the better. Keep going! ❤️

14 | Dr, Mum & Sleep Consultant, Dr Brewer On Sleep Training Safety, Infant Sleep & The Science

Q: What is sleep training, and is it something parents should fear?
Sleep training refers to a range of behavioral methods to help a child learn to fall asleep with less parental intervention, and it can be gentle and tailored to the family's comfort level rather than something fear-inducing.
11 | Sophia, 12-Month-Old Waking Hourly, Postnatal Depression, Divorce, Unplanned Pregnancy
Q: What helped you start turning things around after the hardest years?
Entering a residential mental health facility, engaging in intense therapy, and receiving strong family support helped stabilize Sophia's situation and set a path toward recovery.
