In today's episode, I'm talking about why it's essential to consider how you're going to fill the 'dead space' in the current early parenting support on offer. I take you through 5 of the most common options, including the pros and cons for each of these to make your decision-making easy! ✨ Have you registered for my free 5-day parenting series, Baby Steps? Next week (7th-11th November) you'll learn the 5 'need to know' steps for a settled, thriving, and sleeping babe in their first 6-months, so you can meet their needs confidently and intuitively. If you're an expecting parent or a parent with a baby aged up to 6 months, and you want to deepen your understanding on how to understand and support your babe, this parenting series is for you. To register for free, head to: https://www.jenniferbutler.online/babysteps
In today’s episode, I'm talking about why the time your baby spends at the breast isn’t the best sign of how well they’ve fed, and the things you actually need to be looking for to determine feed quality.
In today's episode, I dive into the pros and cons of using baby sleep and feeding trackers, the questions you need to ask yourself when looking at the sleep and feeding data you're tracking, and how to determine if sleep and feeding trackers are working for you!
In today's episode, I’m diving into how to figure out why some nights you can have great nights, then the next night is crap! In the parenting space, I would say that 99% of ‘bad nights’ are blamed on teething. Teething has become the default for why babies or toddlers aren’t eating, aren’t sleeping and why they’re grizzly throughout the day. While teething can play a part in this, our babe is far more complicated than teeth always being the bother, and without knowing the other things you need to consider, all these bad nights that you think are teething pain could be easily resolved if you know what to ask yourself! If you’d like a shortcut to understanding the link between your babe’s feeding, sleep, health and development, then this is what I teach you inside my Happy Baby Code Membership. Enrolment is currently closed, but if you’d like to put your name down on the waitlist, you can head to: https://www.jenniferbutler.online/jointhewaitlist
