I’m back to answer your sleep questions! In this video I touch on babies waking at all hours of the night, toddlers struggling with bedtime, and so much more. 💬

If you’ve ever wondered things like:
💫 Is my baby waking too much at night?
💫 How do I get my toddler to stay in bed?
💫 Are early wake ups normal?

You’re not alone — and there are ways to make sleep easier for your whole family. 💤

One thing I remind parents all the time is that bedtime routines matter more than we think. A predictable, calming wind-down helps little ones know that sleep is coming.

Lately, tonies have been one of our family’s favorite wind-down tools. Their screen-free audio stories and songs give kids something cozy and consistent to look forward to before lights out, seamlessly transitioning them from playtime to sleep time. ✨

We loved partnering with tonies this Sleep Week and have heard that many of you love using the Toniebox for healthy routines and to encourage quality sleep—check out what else tonies has to offer by following them .us and .ca.

Sweet dreams! 😴 🌙

Sleep deprivation really does change everything.

Before becoming a parent, most people have no idea what true sleep deprivation feels like. It’s not just being “a little tired.” It impacts your mood, patience, mental health, and ability to function day-to-day.

And yet so many parents are told things like:
“Welcome to parenthood.”
“This is just how it is.”
“You won’t sleep again for years.”

But here’s the truth:
Chronic sleep deprivation shouldn’t be the expectation for families.

Babies can learn healthy sleep habits.
Parents can feel rested again.
And you deserve support getting there.

If you’re deep in the exhaustion right now, you’re not failing — you’re just tired. And there are ways to make sleep better for your whole family. 🤍

Daylight savings time is around the corner, and even a one-hour shift can throw off a child’s internal clock. ⏰

Research shows melatonin can be helpful for short-term circadian rhythm shifts—things like jet lag or time changes—because it signals to the body that it’s time to sleep.

But the key is short-term use, not a nightly habit.

Think of it as a temporary reset button, not a long-term solution. For most families, focusing on consistent routines, light exposure, and gradual schedule shifts is the best way to help little bodies adjust to the clock change.

You’ve got this. 🤍🌙

Every child is different — and that includes how they sleep. 💛

Some kids need more connection. Some are extra sensitive to change. Some thrive on structure. Some need more flexibility.

Your child’s temperament, personality, and nervous system all play a role in how they approach sleep. And when we start honoring who they are instead of fighting it, everything gets easier.

Sleep support shouldn’t erase your child’s uniqueness — it should work with it.

When we embrace our child’s nuance, we stop asking: ‘Why can’t they just sleep like other kids?’

And we start asking: ‘What does my child need to feel safe, supported, and ready for sleep?’

That’s where the real progress happens. ✨

If you’ve ever felt like your child doesn’t fit the typical sleep advice… you’re not doing it wrong. Your child may just need an approach that honors who they are.

If you see me lately and think:
“Wow Chrissy really finds a way to bring up her book in every conversation…”

You would be correct. 😂

Because after working with thousands of families, I know how exhausting it feels when sleep is a constant struggle. And I wanted parents to have one clear, practical place to go for answers.

So yes… if you ask me about naps, bedtime battles, night wakings, early mornings, or why your toddler suddenly refuses sleep…

There’s a very good chance I’ll say:
“Funny you should ask…” 😏

But truly — this book is everything I wish every parent knew about helping their child sleep better.

And I cannot wait for you to read it. 💛

When you’re in the thick of baby sleep struggles, intimacy is often the last thing on your mind.

You’re exhausted. Touched out. Running on broken sleep and cold coffee. And carving out time for each other can feel impossible.

But connection matters—especially in seasons like this. 🤍

S*x isn’t just about physical intimacy. It releases powerful brain chemicals like oxytocin and dopamine that help reduce stress, strengthen your bond, and remind you that you’re partners in this whole parenting journey.

Even when life with little ones is chaotic, protecting time for your relationship matters more than ever.

Not because everything is perfect. But because you’re choosing each other through the chaos.

What’s one small way you and your partner stay connected during the baby years?

03/03/2026

YES - it does go by so fast.. 🤍

And also?
�You’re allowed to want bedtime to feel calm.�You’re allowed to still crave a full night of sleep.
You’re allowed to want your motherhood experience to be enjoyable.

Supporting healthy sleep doesn’t mean wishing the days away. It means you have the energy to actually soak them in. 🩷

Two things can be true:�✨ It goes by fast.�✨ You deserve rest while you’re in it.

When I wrote The Peaceful Sleeper, my hope was simple:
That parents would feel calmer.
More confident.
And less alone in the most exhausting season of early parenthood.

To have pediatric psychologists, relationship experts, professors, and parenting authors describe this book as clear, practical, evidence-based, and empowering truly means the world to me.

Because that’s the heart behind everything I teach:

✨ Protect attachment.
✨ Support development.
✨ Give parents real tools that actually work.
✨ Build healthy sleep without fear or extremes.

If you’re looking for a grounded, research-based approach that helps your baby sleep well and supports your whole family, this book is for you 🤍

Thank you to the incredible professionals who took the time to read and endorse it. I’m so grateful.

Sleep is one of the most powerful immune-support tools we have, and it works fast…

Research summarized by Matthew Walker and supported by immunology studies (Irwin et al., 2016) shows that even one short night of sleep can significantly reduce the activity of immune cells that help fight viruses and support overall health.

When sleep is consistently shortened, inflammation increases and immune defenses weaken. Sleep doesn’t just help you feel better, it actively protects your body.
