I read somewhere that a person will die from lack of sleep first before they die from lack of food; interesting bit of trivia or accurate fact? As any new parent can attest to, when you’re beyond exhausted taking care of a newborn, you’ll choose sleep over a meal any day.
Once my husband and I settled into somewhat of a “routine” after bringing our newborn daughter home from the hospital, friends and family started asking the famous question: “how is she sleeping?”
We were very, very fortune (knock on wood) to have a “good sleeper” perhaps it was due to her above average birth weight (9 lbs. 1 oz.) or inherited genes from her mother who loves to sleep, or maybe the sleep gods took pity upon our new family and gave us a break – whatever the reason, I can honestly say we have been fairly fortunate, so far, in being blessed with a little one who sleeps well. And my hope is that by writing these words I have not jinxed our good fortune.
For parents who have become walking zombies, a shell of their former selves and are pretty much at their wits end with how to help their baby sleep better, I can tell you there is help for you!
