WHAT TO DO IF YOUR BABY WON’T SLEEP 😴

I know how frustrating it is when you can not get your baby to sleep!! You know they are tired, maybe even overtired, and you just need them to go to sleep! Or you have something planned and they just know it somehow haha

The best thing you can do for both of you is to take a break and reset! This can be 5 or 10 minutes. Turn off the sound machine, go to a different room, set them down, and take a deep breath!

Sometimes it is nice to step outside and get fresh air. Or you can let them play in the kitchen while you drag a snack or drink! This will help you feel less frustrated. I think sometimes that is all that it is. They can feel your energy and sense when it’s rushed or you are less patient.

I know it seems counterintuitive but the best thing to do when your baby won’t go to sleep is to stop and try again later!
