@anazncat 3 года назад

Yes!!! I’m in a pretty similar boat right now as you were in this video! I have two kids (one toddler and one 9 month baby) whom I fallen into the same rut of nursing to sleep. The first one still comes into my bed in the middle of the night. Very much hoping for an updated video of how Mia’s sleep training went!

@mastermanifesterchelseawil750 4 года назад

I am so appreciative for you talking about your struggle with the sleep association. I too have struggled on and off with my daughter and breastfeeding to sleep. You come across as a very strong and “have it altogether” mom so it is so refreshing to hear you be real about the hard parts about being a mom..you help me feel like I am doing a better job than I think I am!! Thank you so much Ashley

@LissaxKristine 5 лет назад

Just a word of advice about the floor beds: Be sure to take opportunities to prop them (the mattresses) both up so the underside can air out. Having the mattresses directly on the floor without any kind of slats to raise them up and promote air flow can actually lead to mold growth. [Also remove any waterproof protectors you might use regularly; moisture can get trapped INSIDE and again, promote mold growth. I speak from experience.]

@HapaFamily 5 лет назад

We live in a very dry climate, and Kylie has been on floor bed for 2 years without any mold issues. With that said, we do still check weekly each time we wash and change the sheets. :) However, for those of you who live in a wetter climate and have legitimate concerns about this, there are other options available to help raise the bed off the floor slightly to prevent this issue (while still keeping it as a floor bed). Here’s a great example of one that I would personally use if this were a concern: sprout-kids.com/products/low-montessori-floor-bed-for-toddlers Hope this helps! 😊

@rayy2670 4 года назад

We have had a floor bed for 1.5 years, and last winter when our heating broke actually got a little mold on the walls around the windows. Never around the mattress tho. We air her room regularly, try to keep it at a stable temperature, and pick up the mattress weekly. Just keep an eye on it. Or a nose. The smell is the first to tell.

@mrnbrbn2391 4 года назад

So true. Idk why nobody talk about it !! A mattress need air under it. Humans sweat so much during sleep.

@IamKelly-anne 4 года назад

Sound advice! 🙏

@tommypatton3556 3 года назад

We did the Ferber method with our daughter at I think 6 months (let cry for 2 minutes, go check on her, let cry for 5 minutes, etc) and as hard as it was to let her cry, it helped to have a timer, like "ok only 3 more minutes and then I can go touch and sooth her" and within 2 or 3 days she was goimg to bed just fine, no crying 9 times out of 10. Now she's waking up a little earlier so blackout curtains seem like a good idea!

@dianeschmidt17 5 лет назад

You are such a champion. Mentally filing this away for the future! Even though I don't have kids yet, I really love your videos because they are so thorough and easy to understand. Thank you for sharing all of your experiences!

@Smilingsoil 3 года назад

I’m SO appreciative for this video right now. Your daughter sounds exactly like mine with what we’ve been through (first time mom here who has done exactly as you described) but I’m late to the disassociation work, just starting at 17 months. I write this after a two hour session trying to go down for nap and feeling so heartbroken after she finally went to sleep. Evenings seem surprisingly ok with fighting sleep but not crying. However, naps seems to be horrible and the fighting of sleep, longer. Thank you for being another parent who talked about this and picked me back up in the middle of it (while enduring insane fires & COVID 🤯😭).

@KB-yg1je 5 лет назад

Thank you! I have a baby on the way and was already thinking about this, it's perfect. I love peaceful parenting xx

@firemelon7296 4 года назад

Dear Ashley, thank you for sharing your practices, stories and ideas. I can't express enough how much you helped me figured out what to do and why. You have a fantastic family. Much love from UK!

@AshlynnPetty1313 5 лет назад

Thank you for making these videos. I found out a couple weeks ago that I’m pregnant and I’m really glad I found these and I’m glad I have this ability to prepare. I’m so excited to see your new content and I’m excited to learn from you, so, thank you :)

@Djjfjfjfkdkssl 4 года назад

This was seriously so helpful. My story fully with my baby. He’s almost 10 months and still sleeping in his bed in our room. I still nurse him to sleep everytime, I have to nurse him to nap and when he wakes up through the night he has to nurse in order to go back to sleep. Just stumbled upon Montessori and RIE and wanted to start implementing it into our lives. I love how this video (and honestly all of your videos) are very matter of fact and you aren’t put off with saying “yeah I nursed my baby to sleep” because it obviously isn’t ideal and sometimes it worries to let people know that. I find with other videos on babies sleep topic that what is shown is a baby being put down in their bed awake and that’s it. Very discouraging and makes you feel like you are alone in this. Only my baby won’t sooth himself to sleep type thing ya know. Anyways enough blabbing. Thank you so much!! So unbelievably helpful!

@lillithsleeps 4 года назад

I would love a video on you sleep routine! My husband and I never had one as children and it feels like we are just constantly guessing trying to find something that works for our daughter. Thank you for making these videos! ❤️

@JadeAngel33 5 лет назад

I was lucky with mine. She started putting herself to sleep at around 6 months. I watched this for #2 which I will be breast feeding for much longer. I'm sure it will not be nearly as easy. Thanks for the content!

@jessicak8583 4 года назад

As a new momma, I'm lucky that I have a fairly good sleeper, but I have to say I love watching your videos and have learned so much from you. I'm VERY new to this whole Montessori idea but I can already see my ideas of raising my son are diverging a LOT from non-montessori minded parents which is interesting. so, I guess I just want to say thank you again! You're a wonderful momma!

@kaitlinanderle8304 4 года назад

You are SO patient and I hope that I can be this patient when I have a child! I watch all your videos and I look forward to using so much of what you talk about. Also I really appreciate you sharing that this was difficult for you as well!

@kariolsen791 5 лет назад

I found your channel recently- while researching different discipline ideas for my 1.5 year old! I absolutely love your channel! Loving the montessori parenting approach, and it has been working great with my son so far! Thanks for all your help! I also have a youtube channel, but I dont make any videos in regards to parenting styles- so I really appreciate that about your channel!

@yayaguava3026 4 года назад

I'm a new subscriber, this is the second video I watch and I have to say I feel tremendously identified and glad. I love I'm not the only one trying to raise a child this way. I'm still breastfeeding my 13 months old boy to help him sleep (we actually co-sleep) and I'm in the process of letting him on his own bed next to mine (not so easy). So thanks a lot for giving me ideas and hope! 🌺

@amandaaguirre8387 5 лет назад

I love all of your videos! I’m 6 weeks pregnant (first time mom) and so happy to have found your channel. I have a passion for a Montessori teaching/parenting style and you’ve really helped me understand it better! Thank you so much!!!

@foxlite86 5 лет назад

This is such a great approach ! Thank you, keep the videos on this topic coming.

@W4ldgeist 10 месяцев назад

We always wondered what and how we should break the sleep association and our presence in the room. But at some point we thought about our own childhood. We talked to our friends and almost all of them got up at night regularly and went to our parents bedroom, because we just didn't want to be alone at night. So it was settled, we did what most Scandinavian countries do and introduced a family bed. Now we all just sleep together in one large bed. Sure... it's not always super great for sleeping when our little one has a bad night, but we never wanted to go through the process of weaning him into being alone. Most adults don't like sleeping alone, so I feel it's a bit tough to demand that of a young human being. Anyways, your channel is inspiring and your approach to making montessori work is impressive. I wish I could be even a fraction as disciplined and structured about it. All the best for your, your family and you channel :)

@lakliams 4 года назад

Right now I'm doing what you did! Great advise without leaving her!

@hazloqkieras Год назад

Great Job Momma! You did it amazingly. I truly get the crying by your baby’s side and ultimately understanding that it’s our hearts that break more than theirs. I have an 8 month old son who can now sleep independently in his crib and want to transition him to napping on his floor mattress in his own room and I got a lot of inspiration from this video. Thank you!

@lauraespinosa6245 2 года назад

Love your videos. Montessori at home with a 1yr 7 mo old and a 5 mo old is just as you mentioned, a CHALLENGE. Somehow listening to other parents, as yourself, helps me grab ideas on how and when to do certain activities, etc. So thank you. Also, you have a wonderful family , God bless youuu!

@hilarycasey1300 2 года назад

@familieweitgereist3593 5 лет назад

It is always very interesting to see how the sleep "issue" is solved in so many different ways. The ideal solution for us is co-sleeping with our 18month old toddler. I still nurse him to sleep, he still wakes up multiple times during the night. Anyways, since we sleep all in one bed, I don't even notice when he nurses during the night and we have a similar sleep to as it was before having a baby. 👣👶 Besides that, we love sleeping in one bed and enjoy the cuddles. I am excited to see where our journey leads us and how long we will continue to be breastfeeding. 😍 I love your channel and all the videos on the Montessori approach! They are so well researched and interesting! 🤓 Greetings from Germany. 🇩🇪

@adoptedartist 5 лет назад

We're in the same boat. I would like to see her address the parents who still breastfeed their child at night. I haven't watched all her vids, but it seems like she stops breastfeeding early on. Is there a solution later on for when parents wing them off?

@ahm7771 4 года назад

Check out Andrea Olsen at Go Diaper Free, she recommends weaning off nursing to sleep at daytime naps which will help baby wean off nursing at night. Baby will be able to go back to sleep themself without needing to nurse.

@kias7791 4 года назад

Reisetagebuch congratulations! I’m still co-sleeping with my 19 month old and 5 year old! I’ve been nursing for 5 years! Co-sleeping and child lead weaning has allowed us to sleep 8-9 hours every night. Rested parents = happy parents.

@AnnaMillen 3 года назад

Reisetagebuch Thank you for sharing this 💕 I can relate to your comment more than this video because I’m currently bed sharing with my almost 6 month old and It works great for us. I’m just thinking it’s time I try to put us on a schedule rather than just going with the flow ( I’m struggling to have a productive schedule for myself because I don’t know when or how many naps, and some nights it’s harder to get her to sleep, even with nursing)

@familieweitgereist3593 3 года назад

@@kias7791 This is amazing. We love co-sleeping with our little one. It makes everything so easy.

@sjcooks3664 2 года назад

Very reassuring video . Very similar to my journey . I weaned at almost 17 months . And I did the same method you did including putting him in a consistent night time routine. Now at 18 months we’re at a point where he’s sleeping for the whole night most nights but I do have to sit next to him to fall asleep. I would look into eventually gradually retreating but for now I’m in no rush as he’s an only child and this seems to be working right now . Thanks for sharing .

@esthersalcove2650 Год назад

I'm rewatching this video cause my baby is 6 months old, and sleeping in a floor bed...we tried putting her in her bed drowsy, it worked for exactly one day and now she'll just cry and fight her sleep with every ounce of energy she has left. My had for allowing her to form that habit, but when you're so exhausted and sleep deprived you whatever it takes to get your baby to sleep. I definitely want to keep trying, its just so much easier to let her fall asleep on the boob. Thank you again for leaving these videos up, im rewatching so many of them as my baby grows 😊

@kpepperl319 2 года назад

Thank you for this video. I am a new mom with a 2 month old... Most videos I have seen so far are all sleep experts telling me how wrong I am for want to be with my baby when she sleeps. I also know I am not supposed to co sleep, but her crying breaks my heart and I'm constantly worried about her not feeding every 3 hrs. Eventually I know I have to let her sleep independently, but nursing her and letting her sleep next to me made me feel like she is a happy baby. I'm working on it, and I'm glad to hear I'm not alone in this.

@misstaveras8028 5 лет назад

Love the info needed a refresh to avoid errors in this trial time. My baby is 6 month old and he fall sleep by himself. Sometimes I miss him falling sleep in my arms but he dont like to cuddle to sleep. What really worked was weaning him off: make him fall sleep different positions on my arms then get him off my arms ... laying side by side. And finally off to the crib and holding his hand a few times until finally he is off on his own. I do the same for the pacifier. Sometimes I purposely dont give to him so when it's time he will be ready to drop as quick as within 2 weeks. This worked for my daughter. As of room ambience ... make everything very quiet (even if TV is on but VErY LOW, sometimes I need to turn off) lights off and comfortable temperature if possible and my beautiful lullaby ( same song same melody tells their brain time to turn off) . G L every one.

@DianaNova 5 лет назад

Hi Ashley! In Alex's room, there's only some plush toys and a few books, as you mentioned, I didn't want him to have too many toys to distract him from sleeping. We still use the white noise machine as well, it helps a lot during the day if there's any noise outside. I can imagine how you must've felt when you had to stop nursing Kylie. I am still nursing Alex at 21 months old and I get sad thinking that soon I am gonna have to stop nursing him. You are an amazing mom, Ashley! Mia and Kylie are so lucky to have you as their mom ❤️!

@HapaFamily 5 лет назад

I cried MANY times after she was done, it was such a sad loss. 😞 My only good feeling about it was knowing it was entirely her choice. That certainly helped. Thank you so much for all of your support, you’re so sweet. 💕

@gabylamachuca 4 года назад

@LilyoftheValleyGodlovesyou 5 лет назад

Thank you for this video. Such useful information 😊😊😊

@Jane-qg4jr 4 года назад

I am nursing to sleep since birth, too. But now she (15 months old) doesn't fall asleep that often and it took me aprox 1 hour to get her to sleep. Rocking, carrying, back to bed, waiting, crying, back in my arms and so on. I started with the bedtimestories as you mentioned in an other video, she still signaled me that she wants nursing. I have the feeling, that she uses me as a pacifier. I will try it again and again. I know my daughter needs time with it. For her nap, a book and carrying max. 5 minutes is all she needs there (did this for one month now). Hopefully we will get it till the end of the year. God luck with Mia's sleep 😉😘

@jsk2083 Год назад

It is so reassuring to hear that you too started a bit later with Kylie cause my son is 6 months old now and I ran into your videos when started to explore the baby led weaning. No time for regret, but jumping into Montessori world💪🏻

@fajeanlouis 3 года назад

WOW! You are amazing! This is my second video and it has won me over. I love the method you used--you were very detailed in explaining how you achieved independent sleep in a very humane way. I can't wait to try this with my 7-month old. I feel so confident now after watching this that we will have the same success. Seriously, i've read and researched so much on sleep training and your experience is the best one i've come across. You have just earned a subscriber!!🥰

@alexandermilentis2130 3 года назад

I liked your idea of the Montessori sleep approach so at around 18 months my son started sleeping in his own bed and we leave his door cracked open so he just wakes up in the morning and comes downstair with us when he's ready. Very cool concept!

@Viewer2120 5 лет назад

Happiest baby on the block book was a gane changer for my son. He was sleeping through the night by 12 weeks and I exclusively breastfed. He is still an amazing sleeper now at 16 months. He has been sleeping 12-13 hours per night since he was about 9 months old. He naps throughout the day on a set schedule. He is definitely the happiest baby on the block.

@regandanielle 5 лет назад

Raishelle Meagher how did you get him to sleep through the night being breastfed?

@Viewer2120 5 лет назад

Regan, getting on a set schedule during the day for naps,feeding and play then bedtime helped. I made sure he nursed efficiently during the day. I was crazy about our schedule and routine which was a bit of a sacrifice but I wasn’t willing to live with the consequences of not sticking to it. It all happened together honestly...everything was in place and the baby was living harmonious. All his needs were met so he just didn’t need to wake up to eat. Black out curtains, swaddling and sound machine were major contributing factors.

@Asma1604 5 лет назад

Raishelle Meagher will you please share your schedule of day naps and feeding? I have a three month old, exclusive breastfeeding baby, I really need to put him to schedule for feeding more than anything. As of now he sleeps 8-9 hours at night!

With my second baby I did the "put down when still awake" method from day One 😂 because my First daughter learned to sleep completely alone at 5 y.o. 😱

@Viewer2120 5 лет назад

I don’t think that’s what she is saying at all Nadia...I understand her statement completely. I screwed up my oldest child’s sleep in so many ways and he was also not able to fall asleep alone until close to 5 years old and struggled with sleep for a long time after that. So when my second son was born I did a lot of research and also did the awake to sleep. Not because I cared less but because I knew I needed to set my baby up for success and also not be a sleep deprived zombie myself.

@Carlenmay 4 года назад

I tried to do that from day 1 as well. She would wake up every time, other times just fuss/cry in her bed... solution still to be found 😅

@sashaajohnson 3 года назад

Hi there! Thanks for your great videos ! They are so helpful. I’m wondering more about achieving independent sleep with a Montessori floor bed set up. My 7 month old seems to get separation anxiety when I leave the room and crawls around the room crying until I come in. This can go on for quite some time too. She even goes to the door. It’s heart breaking and I can’t find any information out there for sleep training in a Montessori bedroom. I was wondering if you had any more information in addition to what you mentioned in this video. I am also doing this “gradual further away” method and letting her cry it out within reason. It’s heartbreaking and I find myself seeking more guidance for sleep training in a Montessori environment. Thank you so much!!

@devanpotter2776 4 года назад

I would love your help on how you approach Mia's sleep this time around. I have a 7 month old in a floor bed and we struggle with her sleep. she fights sleep unless I hold her until she is basically asleep. she is only sleeping throughout the night for 3 hours at a time. I'd love some advice. btw I always look forward to all your videos. you are amazing!

@juliarenner7701 Год назад

@christinap5148 4 года назад

Hi Ashley, Love your channel and have really appreciated your help. I have been doing this gradual fading method and it’s been good so far. We are still in the room but by the door. My question is what you do if Kylie gets out of bed in the middle of the night. My son comes in our room to wake me up and then has a really hard going back to sleep without me being in the room until he’s zonked. That can be a long time though. I’m wondering if you know how to teach him to fall back asleep on his own in the middle of the night or what you do in that situation. Thanks again!

For those desperate parents watching this, one of the most important things you can do is diagnose why your child isn't sleeping. There are countless reasons. Before embarking on any strategy, get the why figured out. This could range from sleep associations, to sleep disturbances, restless leg/iron deficiency, or anxiety or not being tired due to the schedule you've set up. Some solutions work for one reason but are counterproductive to other reasons. Dr Ferber's book will help you diagnose these issues. Whether or not you follow his solutions is a personal choice, but the diagnosis part is very informative.

@hemalinaidu3309 4 года назад

Thank you for your videos!! They are truly helpful. I’m thinking of switching my 14month old from a crib to a floor bed but am curious as to how to do it. He is sleep trained and can fall asleep on his own but I worry that if he has the ability to leave his bed that he may go play with the toys in his room rather then go to sleep. Would I need to just remove the toys from his room or is there something else I should be doing here? Thank you!

@xxamxx 2 года назад

Thank you so much for this. My 13 month old little boy is on the road to falling asleep with me next to him by his crib, and not being held.

My 9 month old nurses to sleep (for all naps too!), and has a montessori nursery setup. We've tried so many sleep training methods but none have really worked. Going to try your method tonight *fingers crossed*. Thank you for making this video!

@yuritzikhan4040 4 года назад

Hello! I have a 1 year old. I was wondering did this work for you? My daughter also nurses to sleep and nap 😅

@WannaBeNeat 4 года назад

@@yuritzikhan4040 Hi! So it kind of works lol. I'm slowly working on it 😅. Details: it has only been working for naps, which is the easiest time for my son to fall asleep (probably because he's the most sleepy?). The first day, I let him nurse but when he was about to fall asleep I gave him a pacifier. The next day, I did not nurse but waited on his bed while he played all over the room. Finally when he was really tired (after 45 minutes!) he crawled to me...instead of boob, I stuck the pacifier in his mouth and he fell asleep right away. Now for naps, this is the routine. It still takes a long time and now he loves his pacifier. I answer emails on my phone while I wait. For nighttime, he still nurses to sleep. If I wait until he is tired, it takes 2-3 hours, and when he is super sleepy he scream cries and passes out face down on the bed or play mat. Baby steps I guess haha 🤷‍♀️ Good luck with your little one!

@anakapur6688 5 лет назад

Hey, how long did Kylie take to fall asleep during the transition phases - when you would sleep in the middle of the room or next to the door? Also, did u sleep train for the naps simultaneously? Or tackle night sleep first and then extend to naps? Right now, my 11mo falls asleep on her own at night when I lay on the floor next to her floor bed, but is rocked to sleep by nanny for two naps in daytime.

Mmm.. I have to disagree with nursing to sleep being a "nasty" sleep association. It's completely normal and healthy.. though it does suck for us mamas lol. But I'm totally going to be trying these methods out because this mama has been trying to wean for about a year now. 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️

@Realshugarbaby 4 года назад

To wean my 15mo (I still dry nurse from time to time) it really helped that dad is now in charge of sleep. He puts her on his shoulder and she's right off to sleep! I got pregnant again when she was 10 months and a half and my production stopped a few weeks after that, plus my breasts got super sensitive... And she got SO mad that I had no milk. I hope you managed to wean! ♥️

@hS-nt6pr 3 года назад

I love nursing my 11 month old to sleep. It’s such a sweet time to snuggle up together and I watch his little body slow down and his eyes gently shut. Once he’s asleep I pick him up and rock him for a few moments and feel the full weight of his body before I lay him down. It’s so special to me as I know these special snuggles are limited and he’ll be a big boy very soon.

I saw your videos and tried my 2 yo to sleep independently last night. And we did it !!! I am soo happy she slept 10 hours, she did cries at 4:30, 5:30 and 7:00, first two times I didn’t go coz she stopped within a minute, however at 7:00 she cried much more so I went to her room and lay next to her for about 5 minutes and left her asleep again. I would like to ask if she cries similarly, should I wait for her to cone out of bed to put her back or just go while she’s still on the bed to reassure her?

Hello, I've found you yesterday and I am watching a lot of your videos! I find them very helpful. I have a question regarding floor beds, if the baby has free access to the floor, isn't there a risk of asphyxial death? I mean, when transitioning from the bed into the floor, if its carpeted or soft, wouldn't it be potentially dangerous for them?

@jenniferklucar7395 3 года назад

When you sit in the room away from the bed, what do you do when the child comes to you? My daughter likes to play in her bed or in the room and fights sleep.

@bassladyjomac 4 года назад

Can I just say, I like you SO much! You’re knowledgeable, welcoming and validating of others’ parenting experiences. I’m 20 weeks pregnant and so grateful I came across your videos. They’ve had a huge impact on my plans to parent. Thanks for making these concepts so accessible! You mentioned your tot can leave the room whenever she wants. We intend to do a floor bed from infancy (initially sleeping in our room with a bassinet). I kind of assumed that I’d have a child proofing device on the doorknob to ensure baby stays in their safe environment. I live in a three storey townhome, so the stairs and amount of distance away I could be from baby’s room are part of my concern. Additionally, I don’t trust my cat not to smother baby in their sleep (out of love, hate, or some combination of the two!). Any thoughts on this?

@slynnel19 4 года назад

Jo I know that Ashley puts a child gate on the outside of the door at night. So while Kylie can leave her bed and open the door, she cannot actually leave her room. Hope this helps, and congrats on the new little one! 😊

@HapaFamily 4 года назад

Hi Jo! Thanks so much! My toddler no longer has a gate at her door, as the other person mentioned... that was only when she was much younger. (The gate is now actually on our infant's door so that Kylie cannot get into it without us at night). Our bedroom floor has a permanent gate at the top of the stairs, so there's not much for her to do except wander into our room (which is what she always does if she leaves her own room). Nothing wrong with the lock on the door from the outside, though, if that's the only option you feel is safest (especially with your cat). :)

@@fighttheevilrobots3417 that's not true. in India we sleep with our babies and SIDS is almost unheard of. You will be there with your baby anytime they need you. It is relaxing for mom too as she doesn't have to go to her babies nursery again and again.

@@fighttheevilrobots3417 actually we know from researches that there is no danger, as long as all conditions are checked, like no smoking, no drugs, no obesity, no big comforter or blanket on the child, nor big pillows, sleep on a firm mattress (not a sofa or inflatable mattress). Extra rules for the first months : the baby should be near the mum who can check on her baby all night long even asleep, but not near the dad who has not the same instinct, the mum and the dad won't have the same blanket for the same reason.

@HapaFamily 5 лет назад

I haven't quite decided yet... Kylie never had one right next to her bed as we started our Montessori journey with her a bit later and I wasn't really aware of it at the time, so she only ever had the care of self mirror across on the other side of her room. I'm thinking that, once I notice Mia isn't really benefiting from having it there anymore, that's when we'll move it. And at that point, it will just be relocated and turned vertically so that she can use it for dressing. :)

Greetings! I believe Maria Montessori intended to give a little independence to Italian children, even just to let them have some physical space around them, as we all know Italian mothers generally were not famous for teaching their children to be independent before the age of 30..and even then.. I do find the method fascinating and helpful! Independent sleep I believe is a different business, encouraging is great but I think a child can sleep alone when the child is ready and feels safe. To the pretty lady: thanks for the videos! :)
