Description

As the parent of a new baby, you know better than anyone that newborn sleep is different.


For Heather Boyd, occupational therapist and mom of 3, there likely was nothing that could have prepared her for the interrupted sleep, the noises her baby would make while sleeping, or the intensity of cluster feeding.


However, knowing what to expect and what is normal for baby sleep can be reassuring at a time when everything feels raw, unpredictable, and new.


Listen to this episode for an overview of:


  • What sleep looks like in the first 3 months
  • How sleep develops
  • What red flags to watch for
  • Strategies for supporting and influencing sleep at this stage
