Sleep Support Program
Today's parents know they won't be getting any sleep the moment the baby is born. All parents know they will be required to feed the baby every 2 to 3 hours until birth weight is achieved. When breastfeeding it is extremely important to have a sleep pattern in place, as one missed feeding can result in an extra week of feeding to make for the weight loss.
Infants tend to keep you awake at night due to gestational development.
Will you ever sleep again?
With Melissa Millard you can have the piece of mind that your baby and you will be taken care of and not miss any feedings. We can help you develop your sleep pattern and organize your schedule so you have time to sleep and feed your child.
