“How Does Your Baby Fall Asleep at Bedtime?” ~ By Jo Anna Inks |
|
Posted by: thepinetree on 04/12/2016 10:28 PM
|
Murphys, CA...This is the most important question I ask my clients and a tell-tale sign of WHY their baby is not sleeping well. The 3 answers I get most often are fed to sleep, rocked to sleep and bounced to sleep. I hear so often that if the baby is waking during the night then it MUST be hungry. For any healthy baby that is 6 months or older and has gained weight well, food is not the problem. If you have a baby who’s been struggling with weight and has any kind of health issues, yes, food might be the issue.
