Today I want to GUSH on how amazing WeeSleep is and how it changed our lives forever. Having a baby is a huge lifestyle change and it turns your world upside down... and right-side up again. Yes don’t get me wrong it's a truly magical time but here on #ChooseLemonade we talk about the challenges too. Many people tell you what a wonderful parent you will be and how amazing it is to have a baby, which is very true! The thing we found the hardest was the lack of sleep. The first 4-6 weeks you are running purely on emotions. Once the “excitement” dies down and the visitors aren't coming as often the exhaustion really hits you like a ton of bricks. Having one baby is hard enough and then adding another one in at the exact same time ... well let me just say we barely survived. Lack of sleep affects our minds in very negative ways - it makes us anxious and upset not to mention no one wants to be around grumpy parents! My husband and I has most of our disagreements at the 2AM feeding when we were exhausted and just wanted to sleep.
This is where we sought the help of Heather from WeeSleep to try to improve our quality of life, help our marriage, and make the boys much more content. Yes you can always go out and buy a book on how to sleep-train your children but WeeSleep is just so much more then following a programme. Having someone there cheering you on every step of the way makes a huge difference as well as the daily calls to help with any questions that we had throughout the programme. Heather was (and still is) amazing and was the positive voice we needed! All in one night - we took away the soothers, got the boys to sleep together in the crib while mommy and daddy were in our own room!
To this day she is open to hear about our progress and answer any questions that come up through nap transitions (from 3 naps down to 2 and then again from 2 naps down to 1). I don’t take advantage of this and call her everyday but to know she is always there for me if I need her is an amazing feeling. We stand behind this company and always will. Our boys are now great sleepers and sleep 12-13 hours overnight and nap great during the day. Also while traveling they have had no problems adapting to their surroundings. We are so grateful to have found WeeSleep and it's well worth the money. They have different programmes varying in cost so you can always find one that fits your needs.
SLEEP IS EVERYTHING.
**TWIN TIP**
Don’t worry if they wake each other up at the beginning - yes it's hard but stick with it and if one wakes up crying eventually the other learns to tune it out! It might seem like a nightmare when they bother each other at the beginning. But with some hard work and commitment... it can turn into a dream come true!
