Carson Meyer Instagram – There is so much pressure and expectation around infant sleep. Should my baby sleep through the night? Should I train my baby to sleep alone? Should I put my baby on a schedule? The “shoulds” and “should nots” are endless when it comes to sleep, and everyone seems to have an answer.

I’m sure I’m not alone in the late night Google searches and impulse purchases marketed towards spiraling tired moms.

At seven months, we’re still nursing to sleep and transferring to crib for every nap. Unless we’re wearing to sleep or taking a car seat nap of course! (All big no no’s in the sleep training world!)

We don’t follow a sleep schedule and crying it out alone even for a moment is out of the question. Some naps are long, some are short and some are skipped altogether but most days this works for us.

Every so often on a tired day (usually during a leap or discovery of a new baby skill) I find myself falling into the trap of thinking I need to follow an expert’s formula when it comes to sleep. Perhaps if I do X and Y she will sleep twelve hours through the night, fall asleep at 7 PM and nap when I snap my fingers. The days where I get stuck in the idea of how it “should” look are hands down the hardest days for all of us.

When I am reminded that it’s all part of the process and won’t last forever, when I surrender to the ebb and flow and let go of expectation around how and when sleep should happen, we all feel more rested and at ease. It always helps to come back to the reality that the only constant in parenthood is change. 🌊

Thank you @charliecraneparis for this this beautiful bar-less crib we use for naps now that Lou is very much on the go!
