If the persistent lack of sleep is degrading your postpartum experience, you are not alone!
Almost all parents find the lack of restful and/or consistent sleep to be the most challenging and, often, the most surprising part of family life once the baby arrives.
Lack of consistent sleep can negatively impact your mental health - taking turns with a partner or support person in order to try to get 5 hour sleep blocks is very important!
If you want help navigating this demanding period, please contact us so we can help you problem solve!
