Issue 148

You guys,

The moment you’ve all been waiting for has finally arrived! 

My essay on sleep training your baby is here!

…

Oh, were you not all waiting for this piece the same way I giddily counted down the moments until Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince arrived on my doorstep in the summer before my senior year of college??

Cool cool cool. 

Anyway, I wrote an essay on sleep training, except I don’t call it sleep training because when people think of sleep training they think of the cry-it-out method, where you let your baby cry until they fall asleep, which, by the way, doesn’t get enforced until the baby is 4 months old. 

That is nothing close to what I did with my two babes, and they were both sleeping 11 hours a night by 6 months old. 

When my daughter was born, I decided to keep meticulous notes of our process. Now, almost one year later, I have a resource for parents who are in the newborn stage and desperate for sleep and order in their day. 

So without further ado, my essay that you will undoubtedly gobble up the same way I did with Book 6, sitting cross-legged on my childhood bedroom floor:

Wake Train Your Baby

Until next week,
