75: The 3 A.M. Survival Guide

Episode 75 Published 4 weeks, 1 day ago
Description

3 A.M., can make you feel like you’re the only person awake on the planet, holding a baby in the dark and wondering how you’ll do tomorrow on this little sleep. Sheree jumps on for a solo, real-life check-in from the postpartum newborn trenches and shares what’s genuinely helping her navigate sleepless nights with a newborn plus an older kid in the mix.

We talk about the mindset shifts that change everything when you’re spiralling at night: remembering that this season will pass, reframing wakeups as normal newborn biology, and giving yourself permission to admit when you can’t access the “positive” perspective. From there, we get practical. Sheree breaks down the small tools that keep her regulated and sane, like building a grab-and-go nightstand survival station with earbuds for podcasts and audiobooks, water and snacks, white noise, comfort items, and quick mantras that bring you back to centre. She also shares why scrolling can blow up your sleep and what to reach for instead when you need distraction without the dopamine hit.

You’ll also hear a simple checklist for those frantic moments when baby won’t settle, plus soothing resets that help both parent and baby, like fresh air, water, rocking, walking, and humming. 

Sheree explains the heart behind her digital 3 A.M. Survival Guide in our Etsy shop, designed to feel like a supportive sister or best friend on the nights your village is asleep.

If you know a new mom, a “new again” mom, or any sleep-deprived parent, share this with them.
