  • What do you wish you could go back in time and tell yourself about becoming a parent for the first time?

    We’ve been planning this episode for a while but we wanted to keep it REAL and have someone who would be completely honest about becoming a parent AND transitioning from one to two kids. If you’ve followed her on Instagram you’ll know that Elyse Knowles does just that.

    If you or someone you know are considering, expecting or about to transition into have two (or three) this episode is a great reminder of what it’s REALLY like that most people don’t tell you. 

    You’ll hear:
    ✨What the hospitals tell you to focus on that is a complete waste of time 
    ✨Absolute MUST HAVES for a new Mum 
    ✨What Elyse struggled with the most when becoming a parent 
    ✨Where each of us found our support networks
    … and a whole lot more!

    Kristy is FINALLY onto Ted Lasso and lets you know what she thinks but Beck isn’t quite ready to share her midnight mummas recommendation this week. If you’ve got something you think we should watch send us a DM!

  • Are your loved ones pressuring you to avoid sleep training and stay sleep deprived?

    We are back with our first Q&A session of 2024! Our submission box has been very busy over this holiday season, and we are SO excited to be back and tackling our listeners' sleep problems once again. These segments are where our listeners send through their sleep concerns, and Beck and I walk you through our solutions live on air. 

    We have a very mixed bag this week and cover lots of different topics such as vocal and nosy family members, story times about when our bubs dropped their naps, and of course our favourite: the longer lunchtime nap.

    You’ll hear:
    ✨ 6:25 - The thing that boils our blood the MOST - how to approach sleep training when your friends and family are against it
    ✨ 12:28 - Which age your little one will likely drop the nap COMPLETELY
    ✨ 16:13 - Cranky toddler or cranky dentist? Why you should have a chat with your dentist BEFORE your bub gets used to going to bed with the bottle 
    ✨ 17:49 - FOUR things to consider when your baby won't sleep for longer than 40 minutes at lunch
    ✨ 19:53 - Why it’s best to cut down on your morning nap EVEN if Bub loves them
    … and a whole lot more!

    We have a great balance of Midnight Mumma recommendations this week. We’ve moved on to the 1923 (the sequel of 1883) Taylor Swift Concerts on Netflix, and Beck is still on the Ted Lasso bandwagon!

  • ***TRIGGER WARNING: Sudden Infant Death Syndrome***

    In those early sleep-deprived days it can be so hard to keep your eyes open, and for so many of us, those middle-of-the-night feeds are one of the hardest times. 

    You hear about the dangers of sleep sharing all the time, but how often are you warned against surface sharing? Or falling asleep on the armchair after a feed?

    On today’s episode, I chatted with Emily, an incredibly brave and strong mother who has made it her goal to spread as much awareness around sleeping with bub as possible. In June of 2023, Emily and Brian lost their precious baby, Ellie, to surface sharing when her partner fell asleep on an armchair after a feed. Emily and Brian were amazing parents to Ellie and I am so grateful for Emily coming on and sharing her story.

    You’ll hear:
    ✨ How to safely navigate those middle-of-the-night feeds 
    ✨ The importance of doing your research before buying any products for your baby to sleep in 
    ✨ Kristy shares her own surface sharing experience that changed the way she feeds her little ones

    … and more.

    If you want to hear more about what Emily is doing to spread awareness, you can find her @elliesvoice_safesleep on Instagram and TikTok.

    Please take a minute to read Sharing a Sleep Surface With a Baby, as well as What is a Safe Sleeping Environment.

  • Can you even create routines for your newborn?

    Happy New Year Mumma!

    We have decided to start the year fresh with an episode dedicated to everything newborns. While you can look back on this time as beautifully exhausting, when you’re deep in trenches it can just feel plain exhausting. Not only is there a lot of pressure on social media about what you should be doing but both you and Bub are on a constant learning curve.

    To help ease the pressure, on today’s episode, we cover what to expect, what’s normal, and how to lay the foundations early on so that both you and Bub can receive the best gift of all: rest.

    You’ll hear:
    ✨ Why trying to create a routine for your newborn is a one-way road to exhaustion
    ✨ The cues you might be missing when everything is new and exciting
    ✨ Whether sleeping in a dark room encourages day and night confusion or not
    ✨ What might be going wrong if your bub hates being swaddled
    … and a whole lot more!

    If you’re dealing with the pesky 4-month regression, we have a whole episode dedicated to the topic here. 

    If you’re trying to decide how to approach sharing the load with your partner, listen to our episode with Blackbird Counsellor, Eliza Pike here.

  • Ever find sleep training so daunting that starting feels impossible? And what even is a realistic goal for your bub?

    We know just how demotivating it can be when you’re sleep training your little one and it feels like one step forward, and two steps back. 

    When it comes to sleep training, it is rarely an easygoing process (oh how we wish it could be!). One of the best, and easiest ways to combat this is to set small, realistic goals and move the goalpost one nap at a time! 

    On today’s episode, Beck and I chat about simple actions you can take to make this journey feel less overwhelming. We cover the best time of day to teach your little one to self-settle and the power of being consistent when it comes to creating new routines for you and Bub.

    You’ll hear:
    ✨ Easy steps to train your little one to sleep in a new environment
    ✨ How you can use age-appropriate nap routines to work towards your goals (and get that Mumma time back!)
    ✨ How your daytime feeds could be affecting your baby’s nighttime sleep
    … and a whole lot more!

  • Are you ready for daycare?

    On today’s episode, we talk about all things daycare with our resident expert, Beck! Daycare creates a lot of mixed reactions, some Mummas might be cheering while for others it might be a stressful change. It can be a scary thing to start with but once you get used to it, it can help you get your much-deserved me time back. And then you’ll wonder why you didn’t start sooner!

    We cover all sorts of topics such as the importance of introducing bottle feeding before starting daycare, steps to help ease the transition, and troubleshooting strategies for those inevitable days when things don’t go to plan!

    You’ll also hear:
    ✨Key questions to ask educators for reassurance about your little one's safety and well-being
    ✨Essential aspects to research when choosing a daycare provider
    ✨The importance of teaching your little one to fall asleep without a feed

  • It is okay to say no to people to prioritise your little one and your own mental health.

    It's that time of the year where you are probably getting invited to every event left right and centre, and they ALL happen to be at nap time. The holiday season can be stressful, and the last thing you need is to worry about upsetting anyone (because, let’s face it, feathers may be ruffled regardless!).

    On today’s episode, we crafted a game plan to help make the silly season as easy as possible. We share practical tips such as using the car for naps, advice on getting your baby used to the portacot and the importance of establishing a routine before the big day.  

    You’ll hear:
    ✨ Our hack to limit the number of people wanting to cuddle with your little one
    ✨ A checklist of items that can make your baby more comfortable if they have to nap at someone else’s home
    ✨ Strategies for managing those late nights with bub
    … and a whole lot more!

  • We always hear “Never wake a sleeping baby,” but sometimes, you just have to.

    If you don’t know, split nights are when your baby has an awake period overnight for more than 2 hours, and usually after midnight. This is a super common occurrence, especially with toddlers, and could indicate a couple of things. We know how hard it can be to be cheerful in the morning when bub has robbed you of your night's sleep but the good news is, it's really easy to identify what causes them and why they’re happening!

    You’ll hear:
    ✨ 3 of the main reasons why your baby might be awake when they’re meant to be in dreamland
    ✨ How to use an age-appropriate routine to find out what changes you can make
    ✨ Whether it is an overtired or untired problem
    ✨ The importance of not over-playing your role, no matter how hard that might be!

    … and a whole lot more!
