Tori's Story - Sleep Training Success

I never thought I would sleep train my baby. How naive I was!

My son had been a pretty great sleeper until around the 3-month mark, when he started waking up once or twice a night. Nothing major, and although it felt like a step backward, I was fine with feeding him and getting those cuddles. But then he started waking up 4 or 5 times a night.

I couldn’t feed him back to sleep every time, so we introduced a pacifier, and that seemed to help a little. But it still required rocking, shushing, and a gentle transfer back into the bassinet. Then he started waking up just to cry for the pacifier to be put back in his mouth. This wasn’t any better than before!

It got to the point where he was waking every 45 minutes. I went from getting 8 hours of sleep a night to no more than 20-minute blocks a few times. My poor boy was so overtired, and he just couldn’t sleep. It was beyond frustrating for both of us.

This couldn’t be normal!

I started talking to moms around me, and they all mentioned the dreaded 4-month sleep regression. Apparently, they had all gone through it too. Okay, I had a name for it. But now what? How do I fix this?

It turns out that around 4 months, babies experience a biological change and no longer know how to fall or stay asleep on their own—they have to relearn this skill. That’s where sleep training comes in. The solution became clear.

But then the next question was, “How do I sleep train?”

Everyone I spoke to said to read a whole book. With what time? And how was I supposed to concentrate while sleep-deprived?

Others suggested spending over $200 on a class!

Sleep training was clearly the answer, but how was I supposed to do it? What method should I use? Why couldn’t someone just tell me what to do?

There had to be a better way. That’s when I found Simple Parenting Plans!

They offer a simple, straight-to-the-point Sleep Training Plan that hundreds of moms had used, and all talked about the success they’d had.

Moms like me and you, who just want the best for our kids and need a clear plan to follow.

I read the reviews on their website and Etsy store, and with so many positive stories, I couldn’t ignore it.

Why did I need to read a whole book and create a plan on my own? This was cheaper, and the plan was ready to use that day.

So, I spent $10 and bought it.

My husband and I read through the plan, and it was straightforward and easy to understand. We could totally do this!

With renewed hope, we decided to try it THAT NIGHT!

We followed the bedtime routine from the plan, put our baby in his pajamas, kissed him good night, placed him in his crib AWAKE, and left the room.

I had a pit in my stomach. I was so nervous.

My plan was to watch an episode of my favorite show while my husband followed the sleep training instructions, so I wouldn’t have to hear him cry.

We shut the door, went over the instructions one more time, and as I was about to head to the TV room, I asked, “Can you hear him?”

“He stopped crying!”

We ran to the monitor… and he was asleep!

HE DID IT!

In less than 11 MINUTES after putting him down awake, he put himself to sleep!

How was this even possible?

It turns out that when you set your baby up for success with a plan like the Simple Parenting Sleep Training Plan, they can achieve so much!

My husband still did a few check-ins that night, but it went incredibly well.

And over the next 3 nights, it just kept getting better.

By the end of the 14 days, our son was putting himself to sleep and only waking up once a night for a feed!

Our whole lives changed for the better.

Every morning, we’d wake up to a happy, rested baby with big smiles. We didn’t feel like zombies anymore.

Months later, my husband and I still turn to each other and say, “Can you imagine if we hadn’t done the sleep training plan?” It was the best decision we ever made.

I now recommend it to everyone. It’ll be the best decision you make for your baby and your family.

Of course, there are still hard parts about being a mom every day, but getting rest makes everything so much easier.

I’m a better mom now that I get sleep, and my baby is happier, growing, and learning every day.

You’re not alone. Moms all around the world have turned to sleep training. It’s safe and effective.

Talking to other moms about how sleep training changed their lives feels like being part of a happy club!

Get the sleep you and your baby desperately need.

You’re an amazing mom!

Love,
Tori
Mom of the cutest little boy in the whole world, who is also a great sleeper… now!
