Nights with Nat

Aww nat is my friend, she will love this!

Just had a look at her page. She looks fab! My first was a terrible sleeper thankfully my second is fairly good. But might be looking for support in a few months so I’ve given her a follow x

Thanks for the tip, she sounds amazing! My boy has me up 6 to 8 times a night, so I'll definitely look into her program.

this was me! Literally 1 week and last night he was only up for 1 feed! It’s changed so quickly xx

@Hollie What was the process like? I nurse to sleep and trying to break that association is just not working at the moment🙃 we've tried some 'gentle' CIO methods, but i hated it so knocked that on the head. My husband thinks sleep consultants are a load of tosh, but I am getting desperate. Up 1 per night sounds like heaven right now xx

so she makes you a tailored sleep plan depending on your needs and your family and your style preferences- with us we did controlled comforting where we go in every few mins but that is mostly because we had already been doing that ourselves so didn’t want to confuse things - she does methods and where you can stay in the room etc too and then works on ideal wake windows and nap times etc to then ensure they are ready for bed and helping them learn to settle without feeding etc so she works with you as an individual and for me it’s the fact she is there anytime to help she is basically in constant contact all day with every nap, bedtime and there is no limit to how many questions or how often you can get in touch she is so supportive! And if things arnt working or you decide your not happy with the plan she will change the plan - it’s not here’s the plan off you go xx

it all sounds good, I'm going to message her xx

I’m just jumping in here to absolutely agree with you!!

Nat supported us with our little girl’s sleep back in the middle of October. Our little girl has slept through the night every night since day 2 of the plan and our nap times are now more consistent and predictable which I really appreciate!!

The support that she gave was incredible and unlike any other sleep consultant that I’ve seen advertised. 🥰💕

I can vouch for Nat too!! I was always feeding to sleep and now my daughter self settles, sleeps for 12 hours at night and has a good 2 hour nap in the day too 🥲

It all sounds really promising, I've messaged her and hopefully my little man will start sleeping soon 🤞

Before you signed up with her could your boy self settle? Or did she teach you how to get him to self settle? My boy self settles fine. We put him in the cot wide awake and we still have 3-4 wakes ups where we need to attend to. He does wake up other times but he self settles back to sleep. Just wanted to know before joining as he already knows how to self settle is it worth it

yes he could already settle himself to sleep at night and for naps but for some reason couldn’t do it through the night - nat helped me stay consistent with my approach when he woke up and get timings right for naps through the day and I think that’s what helped tbh xx

I just finished Nights with Nat.

Went from 8-9 wake ups, co sleeping, feeding to sleep on boob every 45mins , to:

one wake up, one feed and going in cot awake for sleep and in cot all night!!

@Emma I could have written this myself! I recently finished a program with Nat and have also gone from co sleeping and multiple wake ups to my baby sleeping in his cot all night and only 1 to 2 short feeds overnight!

@Afton that's so good. How long ago did you do it and has it consistently stayed good?

@Emma it was the beginning of January. He's stayed pretty consistent. He's maybe had 2 or 3 wake ups when he had a cold. I'm going to keep at it in the hopes he sleeps right through.

my daughter is exactly like this! Im considering nights with nat now, how old was your baby at the time and what was it that made your baby stop waking up so frequently?

@Aj he was about 10months old. Had to train him to go down awake in cot which overall reduced night wakings, as opposed to boob to sleep. Basically a going into bedroom every 2 mins . I also used Nights with Nat for my 3 year old! Which was actually harder..it's harder as they get older but she improved so much
