Night nurses, newborn sleep, and our experiences with sleep training

Today, Dale and Annabel dive into the world of newborn sleep— while they’re not experts, it’s something that’s front and center for them as Dale navigates it with her second baby and Annabel prepares for the arrival of baby number two. From sleep schedules to sleep training, Dale shares her journey of teaching her son to sleep and self-soothe, the differences she’s noticed between her two kids, and the valuable lessons she’s learned about tuning into each child’s needs. Annabel opens up about her toddler’s sleep journey, as well as the stigma and guilt often tied to sleep training and why, despite the judgment, it was the right choice for her family. Together, they discuss the pros and cons of different approaches, offer practical tips for new parents, and explore the various types of newborn nurses—from night nurses to sleep consultants—and what to consider when hiring one. Whether you’re in the trenches of sleepless nights or preparing for your baby’s arrival, this episode is full of honest insights.Instagram: @wearemorethanmomsPatreon: More Than Moms Guides & Resources Join our IRL LA communitySubscribe to our NewsletterProduced by Peoples Media Hosted on Acast.
