As we bid farewell to 2024 and welcome 2025, I’m reflecting on some of my favorite guest appearances on other shows. New episodes will return on January 8th! This past March, I had the pleasure of joining Dr. Shelby Harris on the Sleep Talking with Dr. Shelby podcast, where we explored why the advice to “sleep when the baby sleeps” isn’t always realistic.
During our conversation, we discussed:
Why getting rest during the "fourth trimester" can feel nearly impossible
How hormonal changes postpartum can impact your already limited sleep
Practical tips and tricks for actually getting some much-needed rest
Check out Sleep Talking with Dr. Shelby where “Dr. Shelby Harris, talks with experts and real people about the sleep challenges keeping them awake – and solutions that will help them get the rest they deserve”.

Did you know while hospitalization is uncommon, respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is the leading cause of hospitalization for babies under 1? RSV season is typically fall – spring but can vary by local areas and today I'm sharing about a preventative antibody which can help protect against severe RSV lung infections. I'm joined by Shawn Johnson East and Dr. Natalie Barnett, Vice President of Clinical Research at Nanit, to discuss the importance of RSV protection for babies. They share personal experiences, including Shawn's family's journey with RSV, and offer expert insights on how parents can help protect their little ones during RSV season.
They join me to discuss:
How RSV is common and can be a serious virus for infants.
Beyfortus (nirsevimab-alip) 50mg and 100mg Injection, a preventative antibody that helps give babies an extra layer of protection against severe RSV lung infection for babies under age 1 born during or entering their first RSV season and certain kids up to 24 months. Your child should not take Beyfortus if your child has a history of serious allergic reactions to nirsevimab-alip or any of the ingredients in Beyfortus. Beyfortus may not protect all children.
That parenting can be scary but navigating the journey with monitors like Nanit, and knowledge of prevention measures for RSV can be empowering.
To connect with Shawn Johnson East follow her on Instagram @shawnjohnson. Visit Nanit.com to see their products and learn more about their research. For more about Beyfortus visit http://beyfortus.com.

Serious allergic reactions have happened with Beyfortus. Get medical help right away if your child has any of the following signs or symptoms of a serious allergic reaction:

Dealing with a whiny child can be challenging, often leading parents to feel overwhelmed.

Today I’ll discuss:
How to recognize and understand your child’s triggers
The need to stay calm and to remind yourself that this is a moment that can be navigated without escalating
Tips to promote preferred communication
The importance of consistency
