Course 11 of 15 · The First YearSleep in the postpartum period is unlike sleep at any other time in adult life.
Sleep in the postpartum period is unlike sleep at any other time in adult life. The fragmentation, the responsibility, the physiological demand on a body still recovering, all of it combines into an exhaustion that is not simply tiredness. This course walks through what is actually happening to your sleep, what safe sleep arrangements look like, and how to survive the nights until they change. No version of this makes your baby sleep through the night on demand. But there are real strategies, and they help.
Mothers in the first year, and any mother who never got this information the first time. Listen while you feed, while you walk, while the baby sleeps on you. No workbook required, no homework, no perfect conditions. Just 32 minutes of real information, in a voice that has been where you are.
