What if your baby’s sleep was a language you just haven’t become fluent in yet?

It can be frustrating to try to figure out what interrupted sleep, resistant naps, or frequent waking are telling us. But if we start looking at this as a language we can learn, the cues become like words, and patterns begin to form sentences that help us understand what our baby needs.

Mentioned in this episode:

1. Listen to the clues that help you figure out sleep.
2. Know that sleep may be communicating something outside of sleep altogether.
3. The need for connection and safety may be the key thing your baby is communicating.
4. What are the clues we see when sleep is going well? (It’s not just long stretches of sleep!)
5. How do we translate what we are seeing with baby sleep when it’s not going well?
