My husband and I are chatting about the births of our daughters, how different they were when we knew what we needed to know all along, and what it was like bringing home a newborn.

This is not an exhaustive list by any stretch, but these three truths get asked/talked about quite often in the business I'm in and I'd like to share them with you.

One has to do with sleep.

One has to do with breastfeeding.

One has to do with you.

We all have those moments of overwhelm or feeling like we can't handle something, like the 3rd tantrum of the day or Baby's (and your) interrupted sleep.

But Nikole MacLellan, ND (aka, Dr. Kokes) approaches motherhood and her life in general with a very practical, supportive and motivating lense. So, I asked her to come on the show to talk about all of that and she shares some really helpful ways that we can all build more resiliency.

How long your baby can stay awake for before they need to sleep again is always evolving.

They get older, their sleep needs change so their naps lessen and become less frequent, their ability to stay awake for longer periods increases… But this can literally be so different from one baby to the next.

In this episode, I'm going to breakdown the signs your baby may be ready to extend/change their wake windows and how you can do that without risking quality sleep!

Access to childcare has long been an issue here in Nova Scotia, but so has the cost. The Government has been rolling out a plan over the past year or so to make childcare not only more accessible to families, but to really be set up in a way that will best help little ones thrive.

We need to be having more of these kinds of conversations. So, this is me practicing what I preach!

It's not particularly jaw-dropping, but it might resonate with you more than you think.

Please share! You never know who may benefit <3
