Dolphins are characterized by irregular sleep patt

Dolphins are characterized by irregular sleep patterns and heightened sensitivity to disruptions in their sleep environment. They often struggle with both falling asleep and staying asleep, experiencing fragmented sleep throughout the night. Dolphins tend to be highly alert and productive during the day, but their erratic sleep schedule can lead to daytime fatigue and difficulty concentrating. Despite their challenges with sleep, dolphins are known for their intelligence and creativity, often finding innovative solutions to problems.

About 10% of people have the dolphin chronotype, which is the hardest to form a schedule around without sacrificing sleep quality. Despite generally being considered the insomniacs of the chronotypes, dolphins have a strong productivity window between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m.

In case I haven’t been abundantly clear about my feelings toward sleep training, I thought I’d lay it all out 🤪🤪

If sleep training hasn’t resonated with you, you’re in the right place.

Choosing not to sleep train doesn’t mean you have to resign yourself to never sleeping again. Finding sleep solutions through responsive parenting practices, while approaching sleep holistically and respecting the other influencers of sleep, can be the key to better sleep for the whole family.

Want to learn more about how to get there? Stick around for more tips, or join me for May’s sleep support circle, where I cover:

✨ 0-8 months: Normal infant sleep, sleep science, safe sleep, sleep myths, sleep environment, red flags, self soothing, sleep progressions, all about naps, parental mental health, habits and sleep associations and an introduction to attachment and emotion, as well as an entire session dedicated to answering your questions.

Want the direct link to learn more? Comment I NEED SLEEP and I’ll send you a DM with the link!

👉🏼 PS: If you’d prefer one on one support for any age, tell me in the comments and I’ll reach out! 💕

This is a classic case of ‘it’s not you, it’

This is a classic case of ‘it’s not you, it’s me’… drowsy but awake doesn’t work, and it’s not because you’re doing it wrong. It’s because it’s likely the wrong approach for your baby.

This is probably the most common sleep myth, and is the pinnacle of sleep training advice. But the truth is, anyone who has tried to put a baby down “drowsy but awake” knows it’s next to impossible!⠀

Here’s what you can try instead:

👉🏽 Hold your child to sleep, and then transfer them into their sleep space once they are fully asleep

Check out my reel on my ‘over under’ technique to make the transfer as smooth as possible. You can also try using a heating pad to warm the crib before placing baby in the crib, so that there isn’t a temperature change in addition to a location change

👉🏽 Put your child in the crib awake, and use other sleep associations to help them to sleep - this may be voice, touch, presence etc. You cannot spoil a baby, and there is no such thing as negative sleep associations, so if it’s working for your baby, don’t stress over needing to remove it.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Do what feels right for you and for your child - and if you need some guidance to figure out what is going to work best, I’m here to help.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Wolves are the night owls of the sleep chronotypes

Wolves are the night owls of the sleep chronotypes, feeling most alive and productive during the late afternoon and evening hours. They often struggle to wake up early in the morning and may experience grogginess and reduced alertness during the early part of the day. However, once the evening rolls around, wolves come alive, experiencing a surge in energy and creativity. Their natural inclination towards nocturnal activities can sometimes clash with societal expectations, leading to difficulties in adhering to traditional schedules. About 15% of the population has this chronotype.

I was definitely a wolf during my teens and twenties, but once parenthood rolled around, things have changed! Do you feel like your chronotype has changed as you’ve aged? Tell me about it below!

These ridiculous (and arguably, harmful) assertion

These ridiculous (and arguably, harmful) assertions are peddled to parents by sleep trainers who claim these are the answers to every tired parents’ problems.

But you know what the answer to tired parents’ problems really are?

👉🏼 Added connection with baby, to make them feel safe (and thus, sleep better and longer)
👉🏼 Identifying any underlying issues that may be exacerbating sleep disruptions
👉🏼 Recognizing biologically normal infant sleep - and planning accordingly
👉🏼 Trusting parental instincts

Separation is not the answer!

It may have been meant as a joke, but it’s time

It may have been meant as a joke, but it’s time we start shedding light on the problematic nature of phrases that insinuate that biologically normal infant sleep is meant to happen in long, consolidated stretches.

Here are some completely normal infant sleep behaviours that you can expect from your baby:
✔️ short naps
✔️ feeds throughout the night
✔️ falling asleep while eating
✔️ needing support to get to sleep or to stay asleep
✔️ variations in sleep needs from one day to the next
✔️ sleep interruptions around major developmental milestones, growth spurts, or life changes (such as transitions to a new caregiver, moving to a new home, daylights savings etc.)

If your baby is doing any of these, they are not generally cause for concern. If you’re having trouble sorting out what’s normal, what may not be, and where there may be room for some adjustments, that’s where I can help 💕
