Video: Tips for weaning and sleep
March 22, 2023
Feeding and sleep is deeply connected for babies, and I often get questions about feeding as it relates t to sleep. I want to share a few important factors when it comes to weaning your child from milk feeds:
- When NOT to wean your child from breast feeding or bottle feeding.
- When feeding habits might be unhelpful for sleep (causing frequent night wakings or short naps).
- How to increase your child’s connection vocabulary so they have a wide variety of ways to calm and co-regulate with you – not just breast-feeding or bottle feeding.
This discussion will give you strategies to help you increase the quality and quantity of sleep (for you and your child)! It will also make it easier to wean when the time feels right!
At the Mindful Parenting Revolution, we believe that every kiddo has an inherent desire to be cooperative, independent and responsible – how can you help your child grow those characteristics when it comes to calming and noticing what they need? Check out this video below for a deeper explanation and some specific examples.
