Client Story
“When I arrived, she was an attorney with a 5-week-old who woke every 90 minutes. She tracked every feed, obsessed over ounces, and was riddled with guilt for not ‘enjoying’ motherhood. In her words: ‘I cry every time I pick him up because I don’t know what he wants.’
I noticed immediately her baby was overstimulated, underfed, and reacting to a latch issue. Within 24 hours, I adjusted their nursing posture, introduced paced feeding, and started a predictable routine. But more importantly, I talked to her. I asked how she was. I gave her permission to not love every minute.
By the end of our time together, her baby was napping consistently and sleeping 7-hour stretches. She wasn’t just rested—she was laughing. Holding her baby with confidence. And on our final day, she said, ‘You didn’t just help my baby sleep—you helped me come back to myself.'”
