It’s been a while, and I know a lot of people have misconceptions about sleep training, so today I want to share what my definition of sleep training is. I believe that there are five components to sleep training. In order to teach your baby how to sleep, these five pieces need to be in place. I am going to talk about what those are today and explain why sleep training is so much more than just “leave your baby in their bed and let them figure it out,” like some may suggest. Sleep training is a process and takes time, consistency and work, but it’s oh-so worth it!FREE Wake Windows GuideMini Courses, Video Course and Consultations

From the day we found out we are pregnant until the day we deliver our baby, we are given all kinds of information so we know exactly what to expect for both pregnancy and birth. But what about after? What about once the baby comes, you make it home from the hospital and now you are supposed to figure out parenthood AND figure out what’s happening to your body and hormones?
