Sleepless Mom

A blog for moms

August 20, 2017

Sleep Training Mom Fail

Since day 1 in the hospital, I have co slept with my baby. The nurses thought I was absolutely crazy, but I loved cuddling with my newborn. Fast forward 9 months, and she is still sleeping with us at night. Until now.

I tried to sleep train my baby in her crib last night, for the first time, and failed miserably. I got weak and put her in our bed in the middle of the night when she wouldn't stop crying.

Sleep Training Mom Fail

I tried to sleep train my baby in her crib last night, for the first time, and failed miserably. I got weak and put her in our bed in the middle of the night when she wouldn’t stop crying. I woke up to little Audrey rolling off our bed, and I was shocked I let that happen to her! My heart was broken!! Thank God Audrey wasn’t.

This was absolutely my SCARIEST moment of motherhood, so far. I had read so many horror stories of co-sleeping and felt so lucky this was my wake up call. I absolutely LOVE co-sleeping, but I realize my baby is safest in a crib.

As much as I love hearing her little breathing in the night, I care more about her well-being. I’m excited for the future when Audrey can come crawling into bed on her own, but for now, in her crib she stays.

About Jessica

Jessica Sleepless Mom Welcome sleepless moms! I haven’t had a full nights rest in over 2 years. Why, you ask? Because like you, juggling a toddler and a baby, working, and finding time for myself has left me sleepless, yet full of joy.

The inspiration for my blog came from tirelessly searching online for the answers new moms have, just to find out there is no right answer. My hope and vision is to create a community for moms to comment and share real life stories with one another when Google just isn’t cutting it. Whether you have specific questions or just want to comment and relate, this is your space to ask your fellow moms advice and know you’re not the only one that screws up from time to time.

I have assembled a well-rounded team that’s here to share their struggles and successes with you, as well as offer support in any way possible. This is an interactive site and we are here to cater to your mom needs. Please feel free to contact our team members with new topics you want us to tackle or even simple questions about motherhood. That’s what we are here for….
