Tips for sleep training - starts at 13:14
We first sleep trained my daughter around 7 months and we just sleep trained my baby boy at 5 months. Unfortunately I feel like sleep training is something we consistently have to do because it is so easy to develop bad habits & regress from our amazing sleep. I am not a baby sleep expert, honestly I'm not really an expert at anything, but I love helping people & I am honored to be a part of your life when it comes to this mom stuff. When I had my first baby I had no clue what I was doing but with my second it has been significantly easier because it's not all brand new. My hope in sharing these videos with you is that they'll help you along the way, and even if your mom style is totally different than mine I hope you are encouraged to know that if I can be a mom anyone can be one.. because I am totally out of my element here.
Thank you so much for watching! Good luck mamas! Leave input & encouragement in the comments for each other! Love seeing the interactions on here :)
See you on instagram!

PSA: a lot of things she talks about in this video is really helpful for babies sleep! Pay attention to wake windows during the day so you know when they are ready for naps and you aren't waiting until they are crying to try and get them to nap because when they are overtired it is harder for them to not only fall asleep but stay asleep. Also, try soothing your baby for 5-10 minutes at night after there longest stretch of sleep BEFORE feeding them and if you do that every night you will slowly stretch there nighttime sleep. (Dont start this until after 4 weeks, and/or when your doctor is happy with there weight gain). And lastly, practice your baby falling asleep on there own! You can rock until drowsy and then place them down or at first put them down asleep and nudge them awake slightly so they fall back asleep on there own. (Usually this works best for the first nap of the day) and this is essential for them to sleep through the night when they are older.. do me a favor and give this a like if you actually read the whole thing so I know if I completely waisted my time typing this out or not 😂
Thank you!
Very helpful. Thanks
@@anastasiiakaradzhova7367 happy to help! 😊
I'm sure you did a mig mistake when adviceing about 4 weeks instead of 4 months. Be careful!
If he was crying for anyone it wouldn't be me 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 the best advice ever
I'm also one of those child-free, non-pregnant women who just enjoys the videos! And I'm learning for at some point in the future
same hahah
Me too!!
Me too! I’m gonna be so informed when the time comes 😂
Me too!! Have to mentally prepare
Same here.
I almost peed myself laughing so hard at your husband sleeping thru your daughter's crying. Sounds like my husband. Lol too cute!
My husband used to sleep through our daughter's😳 so jelly😜
Cute? Oh it sounds pretty insane baby crying out and father calmly sleeping on the couch. Have you ever thought of how her baby felt during that one hour?
@@katarinadobiasova5299 women are more likely to be woken by a crying baby than a man due to the pitch and a mother’s instinct. No one is blaming this tired father for not waking up it was an accident
That's what my bf did before. I was so mad. Ugh men
😂😂😂”before your write me....”
Out of all the baby-related channels, this is my favourite. Jess, you are so authentic and chilled, and non-judgemental, it's extremely refreshing. I don't have any babies yet, but will certainly look up to you for advice when the time comes :)
I so appreciate your candor in these videos. So many “experts” act like they know everything and are infallible. Thank you!!
You seriously make me feel so confident in being a mom!!! You are seriously fantastic! I'm so glad I found your page!
Thank you for not leaving out the stuffed animals, knowing well that people will criticize you for it. It just goes to show that every baby is different and sometimes moms just have to do things however they work for their babies! 💛
I AM BINDGE WATCHING THESE. whats INCREDIBLE about your channel is that the content and tips are great but what's MIND BLOWING is the ease, acceptance, and JUSTDOINGTHEBESTICAN vibes. THIS is what I need to be reminded of
I really appreciate that you just show us how you survive. So that hopefully we can also survive. 😂 You manage to be the least pretentious 'advice channel' I have ever seen. 💛
My husband and I watched your video and started sleep training last night, we did a 11 pm feed and she slept from 11-6:30 thank you!!!
Wow! In one night! Amazing work👍
How old?
I swear, you need your own TV show - your personality is so relatable and hilarious, and your presence in front of the camera is so good! Thank you for all of these videos. I am just starting IVF and cannot wait to have my own baby to try these with
Your videos are informative, humorous and kind hearted. I always feel better about taking care of my little man after watching your videos! Thank you for being so real! Other people can add to the mom guilt, where you have the opposite effect! Your positivity is infectious! ♥️
"She hasn't woken up yet.." 🤣😂 I laughed out loud because this is SO my husband!! It's heartwrenching to hear them cry but I'm glad to hear letting them cry a little won't ruin them lol. Because that's what it feels like sometimes!!😭 I'm so glad I found you on here💕 I love your videos.
Especially if they look at you and cry...feels like you are such a cruel person.
With my first baby on the way, I love watching your videos. It makes me feel like i can be a good mom too! Your positivity radiates!
I'm still years away from having kids but I love your channel! You have such a pleasant way of speaking and you're so real.
Not a mom. Not pregnant. But one day I would love to be a mother and I love your videos so much. So soothing and comforting. I probably won't have kids for a few years and it's already giving me anxiety but your videos help relieve that. I'm sure so many moms tell you that so keep making these videos we love you and your little family 😭♥️
Your sleep training story about Eloise is HILARIOUS.
I absolutely love your channel, only just recently found it as I’m expecting my first baby boy in just under 4 months and I have no idea what I’m doing and your videos really help me a lot, thank you! ☺️
I feel like all the mom shamers scared me out of sleep training but I’ve reached a point that I can’t function waking up this much. So I’m revisiting the idea and hoping it will work!
I didn’t sleep train until my daughter was 14 months. It was torture! This next baby that is due any day now, will be sleep training at 4 months. Idc who says anything!
I love how honest you are. Thank you for that. I’ve watched a few of your videos and I feel like I’ve learned so much in a easy and casual environment. I feel more confident and I’m hoping I can remember what you have said when I meet my baby boy in a few weeks 💙
“If he was crying for anyone .. it wouldn’t be me” 😩🤣😂
Sean is something else 🤣🤣🤣 @ “she hasn’t woken up yet”
Omg Wilson looks so much like you! He's so adorable
Omg Jessica this is soooo needed right now! I have suffered all week with little sleep as I now call my 4 month old 'little insomniac'. I can't watch this yet as I've got my son sleeping on my lap but as soon as I put him into bed, I'll be back to watch. Soooo eager for some help. ❤️
Becca is a wonderful friend :-)
Just wanted to say thank you for posting these videos. It is absolutely needed and appreciated from a new mom like me! I have a 2 month old, Jayce, who has benefited (and mom!) from your advice. Keep it up, it doesn’t go unnoticed ❤️
You are so relatable and I absolutely love your videos. Just want you to know that I am loving what you are doing and thank you for creating content!! More baby help!! ❤️❤️
My little guy is 4 1/2 months going through the absolute worst sleep regression. Your videos are SO encouraging and helpful. December 28th he will be 5 months and I'm so excited to start sleep training. I MISS SLEEP!!!
I wish I’d had these videos when I was a new mom. I struggled so hard and your content is so comforting!
he is such a cutie pie. his big curious eyes look so cute.
Thank you for sharing all your wisdom! I’m not a mom yet but I hope to be in the near future and I love watching your videos. They are so encouraging! I am terrified to be a mom and to have all that responsibility but you’ve really helped me to feel a bit more prepared! I will definitely look back to all your videos when the time comes for me 😀
I love how candid you are!
I’m almost 14 weeks pregnant and this video really helped me to get a better grip of the whole sleep pattern thing. Thank you!!!
You are hysterical! Love your sense of humor- could watch your videos all day! Thanks for the advice!!
I just love your channel, oh my gosh. Just found you today and been binging your videos. Thank you for making these.
I love the sweet way you say "this is what I do, I'm not recommending it, you don't have to write me about it." So glad I found your videos! I'm due in 6 weeks with my first.
That's very similar to how we sleeptrained the twins. I needed my husband to stop me from going back into the room too soon, and to remind me that it never takes longer than 3 days to adjust to a new situation and be back on track with sleep. Next baby is due in a week or two. 😊
I found it really reassuring when she talked about how hard Wilson cried. My babe gets like that sometimes no matter what I do and it makes me feel like such a bad Mum! So good to know I’m not alone.
I freaking love your videos theyre so real!! Putting his shirt on was so funny lol !
Thank you for being so honest about your experience as a mama. It’s nice to hear someone else going through it all!
Dear Elizabeth,
Nothing worth fighting for if it wasn't for your Kids. Give your child a BRIGHT future by teaching him/her to read in early age in a very efficient scientific way using one of those guaranteed exclusive reading programs. You won't lose anything. Check out those typical instructions and don't forget to share with your loved ones:

I love how real you are and how much I can relate to you 🤗 thank you for sharing your struggles and successes with sleep training 🙏🏼
My first “baby” is now 19 years old and my second baby is due in March. So although I’ve been through all of this, it still feels all new! I’ve been watching tons of videos and love your channel. I’m seriously wondering how any of us were able to “mom” before youtube! Wish I would have known about sleeping training 19 years ago. I swear my son didn’t sleep through the night until he was like 9!
April Summers I am in the same situation! My first baby is 18 and I am due in April! I am trying to remember everything and it feels like their is so much more information now. I am definitely going to sleep train because my daughter didn’t sleep completely through the night for a long time either.
Excellent advice! It seems like a lot of people just go full CIO at like 8 months because they didn’t do any sleep training prior and are losing their minds from lack of sleep by that time. I like your approach better - gradually removing night feedings as the baby gets older. Thank you so much!
Jessica, I am about to have my third baby so I'm just here for the fun of it. I just paused the video to congratulate you for you all around personality, easy-going vibes and the way you address all the things we all know someone somewhere will lash about. I wish I knew you personaly, you look so much fun to be around! keep up the good job! kisses from Portugal

came in really handy - thank you so much jessica! x
Anyone else hold their breath when putting kiddos down for bed (mainly baby age)?! 😄☺️❤️ I love this video. And you, you’re awesome. Mama of two over here... and one on the way 🤫 😍 nice to meet you Jess!! I’m Bekah :)
Thank you for being so honest about your sleep training journey! I couldn't even make it through one night of trying to sleep train my little guy. Way too hard!!!!
Honestly, you, I love!
Sleep training changed our lives! We went from nightmare naps & waking every 45 minutes-2 hours to sleeping through the night (basically) at 5 months. Too bad I didn't see this video until after we were done. lol I wouldn't have been so freaked out.
I'm hopefully having a baby in the next couple of years and I love this channel :) and you!
Hes a really cute baby, i think hes so lovely
Love love love!! Thank you so much!!!! My second go-round too, and I’m doing everything you say haha
Love your style! It would have been nice to see Becca on the couch since she is the one who seems to have sleep trained Wilson...
I really enjoyed this video, and most all of your videos. I like your outlook and approach in explaining things. One comment for this video is I came with the question of, What is sleep training? and you really made the assumption that I already knew, and so from watching the entire thing I now have that questioned answered, but would have like a quick little intro of here's what this topic is that we're going over today.
My 2 month old has been sleeping from 10pm- 7:30am *almost* every night. Since birth I have been super strict about his bed time and bedtime routine. I also make sure to keep things bright during the day and dark at night. I still nurse him at night if he were to wake up because he is too young to just let him cry but I feel like being so stringent with his nighttime routine has been the key to him sleeping through the night.
Haha that was so me! life was great then. Just wait until next month. Sleep regression is awful!
A B I hope youre wrong!!! 🤞🤞🤞
manehbag lol A B was right 😭😭😭my little guy wakes up 1-2 x a night to eat now!!! Im so sad about it!! Plus he will wake up few more times for his pacifier on bad nights. However he does stay sleepy/ keeps his eyes closed all night which isn’t bad I guess. I just keep everything as dark as possible starting from bedtime and use white noise.. I will sing him the same song and massage him with Johnson’s Bedtime lotion. Then I put his pjs/ sleep sack on and nurse and rock to sleep. 🤷♀️ I feel like he still does pretty well t night for his age but definitely not as good as he used to!!!
jacquelinex13 how is it going
I would love to have you as an unmom friend ♥ I'm about to be a first time mom and you and what/how you do things makes me feel at ease. I always come here when I have thoughts that I don't know what I'm doing and it's scary ♥
Yep. She's my therapist 😄
Thank you so much for your tips. Feeding was never our problem. My baby boy feeds the same time as yours but he is still waking up alllll the time. He had is sixth teeth at 7 month so he is really early, if he is not in a sleep regression is is teething, having a fever or is sick. We have maybe a few better days in between and then there is something else coming. Even if he falls asleep by his own he still wakes up all the time. It's really hard. I hope it's getting better very soon. Thank you so much for your video. I just love them.
I’m first time pregnant and won’t have anyone except my husband to help me. We have zero experience with babies. These videos are a lifesaver. I’ve never even dressed a baby before so I was taking mental notes while you putting on little guy’s shirt.
We’d take some parenting classes but everything is really shut down still where we live. Our friends/family are all over the U.S. bcz our jobs move us around the world. Thank you for these videos. They’re helping our family a lot.
Great video! Thank you for this
I love all this advice. But I can’t stop looking at this gorgeous couch!😆 lol where is it from?
Love your videos! You crack me up girl !😂😎
I started very early with sleep training so this is very interesting to listen to. Into a couple weeks when my son and daughter started to go longer at night in between feedings I would encourage it and by 6 weeks for both, they slept 7 hrs straight. My son is 3 months now and sleeps 10 hrs straight. Definitely agree that you need to make sure they are a good weight before you try training and both my kids grew and gained weight right on point. My son has an extra feeding time then my daughter who is 19 months old and but he likes to feed when she does which is cute. Loves his big sis. Maybe I come from a family of good sleepers....
@manehbag I would give them a wubba nub (pacifier) when they would wake up earlier then they normally do.
So they will call anyone but me I’m over laughing 😂
The whole time i was looking at your baby😍😍😍wayy too cute
You did such a good job with your comment for the trolls after you put him down for a nap🥰🥰 I like you!
wow... its very helpful
I really hope your method will work for me too☺️ fingers crossed🤞🏻
I love your personality HAHA esp the peguin comment YOURE AWESOME...thanks for sharing your experience and tips. I'm trying to convince myself to do it. I tried at 4.5 months and sorta failed bc i became inconsistent. So now trying at 6 months.

Hey Jess, I can totally see you as a pediatrician!
Thank u! Quite useful 😍
He's so big😍
The sleep sack reminds me of the little girl on monsters ink where she dresses up as the monster ☺️ so cute!
I was looking forward to this video, thank you for sharing your knowledge and support! My boy is 11 weeks on Monday and my husband keeps checking in on "when can we start sleep training?" haha. Picking up tips and tools so we're prepared for when he's old enough to handle it. Your son is so beautiful!
Kelsey Hanley I sleep trained my baby at 6 weeks and she is doing wonderful at 5 months!
Taking Cara Babies on Instagram is a great resource to help with this!
Also, if your baby has any medical needs, consult with your pediatrician to determine the best way to sleep train.
I’m so worried about losing sleep. When I was a teen I suffered with insomnia so I wouldn’t sleep the entire night now I have a whole routine to get me to relax.
You’re awesome!
You are brilliant xxx
Thanks, Jess! Nap times for us often end up being me holding my baby and crying...completely exhausted.
if i could subscribe one billion times, I would Jess!
I love her so much 😄 She's my mommy inspiration. Expecting my first daughter in 9 weeks ♡
Eat play sleep is the routine I used for my kitten. 😂 I think it’s a good bedtime routine for any baby mammal!
You’re so funny teaching him any other name but Mama!!! I get it 🤣🤗
Hey jess! I love watching your videos, I love how honest and raw you are! I wanted to recommend a book to you, it’s called Unconditional Parenting by Alfie Khon. You seem like you enjoy expanding your mom-skills haha and I think this book will help with that!!
your voice is so sweet!
Hey! I love your videos btw! I have a question. You said with Elois you sleep trained her while she was still nursing. Did you just wean the night feeds cold turkey? Or did you slowly wean the night feeds for her? My baby is 4 months, but I plan to sleep train at 5 months, abs she still nurses about 2-3 times at night
Wilson is soooo cute 😭
HAHAHAHA - I had 3 kids and the "baby" is now 21 y.o.! I am NOT a professional mom by any means. Thank you for making videos to show moms how to give themselves grace.
Lmao to Shaun sleeping through Eloise's crying! My husband did that a few days ago too, I couldn't believe it!
For us, night time schedule is not too bad(not weaned). Naps are a major mess. Unavoidable noisy environment isn't helping.
Good to know that the 11:00 pm feed is your choice and not Wilson's. I've been debating the same situation regarding my son. It's a feed I can easily push farther, but that's the time most convenient for me...n will help me avoid having to get up for the next feed too soon after I go to bed. But I wasn't sure if it's ok to feed him just before I sleep, only because it suits me.
I started with naps as well, i let my little one cry it out for a bit. It took a good amount of time the first day but drastically decreased every time until now she just goes down. It helped with nighttime for sure. We had to move her from breast to bottle about a month and a half earlier because of extreme weight issues that we caught just in time for it not to permanently affect her. So with her being bottle fed it was probably easier for her, i just would go in a pop her bottle in her mouth. Now we've slowly moved to water and now is just binky. She is just now at 9 months sleeping through the night.
Ya they're crying less because they've learned no one will come if they cry. You're teaching mistrust and suspicion of others unfortunately
@@Msinai07 not true, they're crying less because they know when they're in bed its time to sleep. My child trusts me. She also is falling asleep right away when i set her in bed, whereas she was fighting her sleep every night, so I'd choose my battle. Not liking hearing my child cry for a bit while watching them on a camera for a day or 2 with great results or my child never sleeping..... i prefer the first. Honestly if you cant handle sleep training dont do it, but my child did great with it and shes a sweet little 9 month old, but dont go shaming others for your opinions.... thanks ❤❤
@@Msinai07 Babies wake up asking to be nursed out of habit even after their bodies don't need it. As very young babies, they cannot get enough nutrition with just day feeds. Their digestive system is not developed yet. Around 4-5 months,they are ready, physically, to be weaned of night feeds. I cannot train the strict/harsh way either. It feels cruel to me. But I cannot agree that babies shouldn't be sleep trained at all.
@@ayanabenjamin376 it's totally fine to feel like you can't handle sleep training, what's wrong is when people go around mom shaming for it.
you´re the bestest!
