1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:04,320
Thank you so much. 
I've shared your podcast with 

2
00:00:04,400 --> 00:00:09,760
all my baby bum friends and I've
got some people messaging me 

3
00:00:09,760 --> 00:00:13,880
saying that things have really 
improved for the bitter and so 

4
00:00:13,880 --> 00:00:17,600
I'm just evangelising to 
everyone. 

5
00:00:18,040 --> 00:00:21,400
And so I just wanted to say a 
huge, huge thank you to your 

6
00:00:21,440 --> 00:00:24,320
Beck because. 
Our our life. 

7
00:00:24,320 --> 00:00:29,360
Is just so much bitter and with 
all all your advice so thank you

8
00:00:29,360 --> 00:00:38,360
so so much. 
Beck, you and I got some really 

9
00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:42,040
beautiful fan mail during the 
week and we thought that we 

10
00:00:42,040 --> 00:00:47,040
might share it with the Nap 
Trapped community If you'd lend 

11
00:00:47,040 --> 00:00:49,320
an ear as we. 
Just. 

12
00:00:49,320 --> 00:00:54,520
Indulge ourselves. 
But this came from a lady who 

13
00:00:54,520 --> 00:00:57,720
did our camp snooze. 
So that's how two weeks of 

14
00:00:57,720 --> 00:00:59,440
virtual group sleep training 
together. 

15
00:00:59,440 --> 00:01:02,480
She was in our second intake and
I remember when she first 

16
00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:05,319
inquired she was in arming and 
arming about whether or not to 

17
00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:09,480
do it before a big trip to 
Vietnam or to just grin and bear

18
00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:11,120
it and save it for when we were 
after. 

19
00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:15,120
And I'd sort of said it's 
totally up to you, but there's 

20
00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:17,760
no time like the presents, just 
getting better sleep and then 

21
00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:20,960
let the good times roll. 
So anyway, she messaged us to 

22
00:01:20,960 --> 00:01:22,840
say hi. 
Beck and Sally, I just want to 

23
00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:25,240
say thank you so much for the 
camp's news. 

24
00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:28,440
I'm so glad that I listened to 
Sally's advice and decided to 

25
00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:31,760
camp's news before the travel. 
I just wanted to report back and

26
00:01:31,760 --> 00:01:33,880
how amazing it was for us. 
Now we are travelling. 

27
00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:38,920
Avery is a true champion and we 
just created a great little 

28
00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:41,480
sleeper. 
She did an amazing on 8 hour day

29
00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:43,960
flight from Sydney to Malaysia 
and then we're supposed to have 

30
00:01:43,960 --> 00:01:46,480
a one hour layover connecting 
flight to Vietnam. 

31
00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:49,560
It was delayed for two hours. 
She goes on to say. 

32
00:01:49,560 --> 00:01:53,560
Fast forward, we arrived to the 
hotel at 9:00 PM local time, set

33
00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:57,520
up the Porta cott, we gave her 
an extra feed and then she 

34
00:01:57,520 --> 00:02:00,800
proceeded to sleep for seven 
hours straight and woke around 

35
00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:04,280
4:00 AM local time, which was 
her usual wake up time at home. 

36
00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:09,960
They've she writes about how 
they've been able to do contact 

37
00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:12,680
naps and naps on the go but 
always tried to prioritise being

38
00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:16,480
back at the hotel for the nap. 2
and the irony being that this 

39
00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:19,280
baby who was eight months when 
we were working together and a 

40
00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:23,280
chronic contact Napa would not 
sleep independently. 

41
00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:25,440
Never heard of self settling, no
interest in it. 

42
00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:31,040
Actually now prefers to nap in 
the cot, she says. 

43
00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:34,240
Can you believe it? 
As a serial contact pass Serial 

44
00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:37,880
contact nappers. 
Some days naps are a bit wobbly 

45
00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:41,600
as we are at exploring but she 
still sleeps solidly 11 to 11 

46
00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:45,320
half hours overnight. 
You ladies are the legends now. 

47
00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:49,040
We are enjoying our time here. 
We're well rested and happy. 

48
00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:51,520
Thank you so much and sorry for 
a long post. 

49
00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:55,280
PS It took us as adults three to
four days to be on local time, 

50
00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:59,440
and she's done it in one. 
Oh, it's so amazing, isn't it? 

51
00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:02,160
It's, it's like, we love hearing
the fan mail. 

52
00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:03,680
We love hearing. 
The fan mail. 

53
00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:06,840
We love hearing the fan mail, 
but we also love seeing that 

54
00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:12,600
it's all the hard work that our 
clients put in it future proofs 

55
00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:15,800
them four times like these, you 
know, like where you can go on 

56
00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:20,280
holiday and you've got great 
sleep in the bank and that they 

57
00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:22,800
can roll it out at the new 
destination. 

58
00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:28,040
Like I just love, I love that 
for her, it is always a little 

59
00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:30,440
bit of a gamble in terms of like
how much time do you have up 

60
00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:33,960
your sleeve to implement new 
strategies before you start 

61
00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:35,840
something new? 
So either going away or starting

62
00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:40,600
kinder or preschool or daycare 
or you know, like how much time 

63
00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:42,640
is enough time? 
But you know, when you've got 

64
00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:45,840
great sleep under your belt and 
you've got strategies to know 

65
00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:51,280
how to carry it onwards when you
are in a new destination. 

66
00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:56,360
I think it's a game changer. 
And to be able to live and 

67
00:03:56,360 --> 00:04:02,240
breathe the joy that it brings 
in that moment, you know, like, 

68
00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:05,000
wow, 11 to 11 1/2 hours 
overnight when you're on 

69
00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:08,160
holiday. 
It's the absolute dream, isn't 

70
00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:09,640
it? 
And to have great apps, you're 

71
00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:11,360
exploring, you're enjoying your 
time together. 

72
00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:14,480
There's a time with a, you know,
Avery to be in the cot. 

73
00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:17,160
And I'm sure there might be a 
pool neck, you know, like not 

74
00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:20,240
too far away where Yeah, yeah. 
You know, if you had the baby 

75
00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:23,120
monitor, you could just duck in 
for a quick dip and have a 

76
00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:25,360
cocktail and back to the room. 
But. 

77
00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:27,760
Or maybe you've got room 
service, who knows? 

78
00:04:27,840 --> 00:04:32,360
It's just really it's it's life 
changing to have great sleep so.

79
00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:36,120
It is and I think it's really 
nice to hear that it's not just 

80
00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:38,440
a one hit wonder. 
It's not just that it works 

81
00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:42,240
really well for the two weeks of
a package and then it all 

82
00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:46,280
spirals and falls apart. 
I think being able to read that 

83
00:04:46,840 --> 00:04:50,080
this family have been able to 
take the skills that they've got

84
00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:53,240
the troubleshooting, like she 
knows when to do an extra feed. 

85
00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:57,040
She knew what was and wasn't 
hunger in a different time zone.

86
00:04:57,560 --> 00:05:01,800
She's got on the schedule and to
see it actually play out in in a

87
00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:07,000
very real life scenario. 
It's not just a a band aid fix 

88
00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:11,200
and this this beautiful baby was
waking multiple times overnight.

89
00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:14,760
Lots of milk feeds when we first
started early rising and didn't 

90
00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:20,760
want to bar of the cosh during 
the day and she now overseas 

91
00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:23,400
self settles, sleeps through the
night and takes 3 naps. 

92
00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:28,320
She was one of those babies 
where we got to one step and 

93
00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:31,160
then she just progressed to the 
next step really easily. 

94
00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:33,960
And then the next step after 
that it was like it was one of 

95
00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:37,920
those sort of seamless runs, you
know, to get like she was. 

96
00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:40,560
And Mum put in all the hard work
like it's, you know, like we 

97
00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:42,360
say, it was a seamless run, but 
mum's doing. 

98
00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:44,680
The Oh, no, those words, yeah. 
Yeah. 

99
00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:51,800
And, and, but that's the benefit
of having one of those virtual 

100
00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:55,800
camp snoozes is that you can ask
lots of questions along the way 

101
00:05:56,400 --> 00:06:01,880
and you can gain the confidence 
of knowing that this, this is, 

102
00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:04,840
this is happening. 
I've got the support behind me. 

103
00:06:04,840 --> 00:06:08,120
I can see the other members of 
the campus still are 

104
00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:10,080
experiencing similar sort of 
things. 

105
00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:12,800
Like, you know, that whole 
solidarity of like, you know, 

106
00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:15,320
sleep isn't linear. 
Like you always say, it's 

107
00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:17,240
sometimes 2 steps forward, one 
step back. 

108
00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:20,000
But to be able to gather all the
information and the tools to 

109
00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:24,640
move forward and implement it 
out of Kemp's news is what it's 

110
00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:26,200
really all about. 
And. 

111
00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:31,440
And I remembered this mother in 
particular, we, you and I hadn't

112
00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:34,240
started them on naps, but I 
think she must have listened to 

113
00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:36,720
all the other mothers being 
like, Oh yeah, we've popped baby

114
00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:39,360
down. 
And I remember one day she put 

115
00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:41,440
this beautiful baby just down 
for nap because usually on a 

116
00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:42,920
three night schedule, we start 
on nap 2. 

117
00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:44,760
So we're working on nap 2 and 
then up for notes. 

118
00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:47,080
To us she's like, Oh no, I put 
her down this morning for nap 1 

119
00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:50,040
and she fell asleep. 
And we're like, this is amazing.

120
00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:52,360
Do you remember that? 
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, totally.

121
00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:55,240
What have we been waiting for? 
Like, let's get the show on the 

122
00:06:55,240 --> 00:06:56,520
right. 
This is amazing. 

123
00:06:56,520 --> 00:07:00,040
Like we, we took confidence from
it too, because we're usually 

124
00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:03,640
like slowly, slowly. 
And she was like, no, no, I 

125
00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:06,720
already did that. 
Yeah, that's the confidence from

126
00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:07,760
the group. 
Yeah. 

127
00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:09,200
Because it's like, yeah. 
So it's. 

128
00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:12,120
A precious deal for us. 
For sure, for sure. 

129
00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:14,160
So good. 
Thank you so much for reading 

130
00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:14,640
that. 
Yes, so. 

131
00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:17,280
Lovely, yes, It's just so great 
and lovely. 

132
00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:21,760
I think for other families to 
hear it not come from us as well

133
00:07:21,880 --> 00:07:24,640
that this is all possible. 
So thank you so much and enjoy 

134
00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:25,920
that trip. 
I'm looking forward to having, 

135
00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:27,720
I'm actually going to Vietnam in
the middle of the year. 

136
00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:30,360
We're going as a family. 
So hopefully I'll get some 

137
00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:34,440
recommendations of where to eat 
and drink amazing from that 

138
00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:38,000
family. 
All right, let's dive in to our 

139
00:07:38,320 --> 00:07:42,840
main topic today. 
Today we are talking all things 

140
00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:47,680
Eat, Play, sleep, not to be 
confused with Eat, Pray, Love. 

141
00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:53,960
Although I wouldn't mind all his
travel talk and I do love Julia 

142
00:07:53,960 --> 00:07:55,360
Roberts. 
Yeah. 

143
00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:56,440
Oh, yeah. 
She's wonderful. 

144
00:07:57,280 --> 00:07:58,840
She's wonderful. 
I do. 

145
00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:02,320
I'd love her here. 
I'd love to have her here. 

146
00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:06,000
She's I just like I'd. 
Less unstyled. 

147
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:12,240
Cool, I have loved her for girl.
Yeah, Notting Hill, Runaway 

148
00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:14,600
Bride. 
I used to watch that on repeat. 

149
00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:15,680
Pretty. 
Woman. 

150
00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:17,840
Pretty Woman. 
Speaking of fan mail, this is 

151
00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:21,680
now just become a Julia Roberts 
fangirling moment. 

152
00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:25,720
So not to be confused with that,
although we could clearly talk 

153
00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:29,240
about it, we're talking about 8 
play sleep. 

154
00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:32,520
What is 8 play sleep? 
Like? 

155
00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:34,960
How? 
How do you define it? 

156
00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:40,960
So eat, play, sleep I think is 
just a rhythm to your day where 

157
00:08:40,960 --> 00:08:46,360
new parents can sort of get into
a like a sequencing of making 

158
00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:49,240
sure that their baby is really 
well fed, having some activity 

159
00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:54,680
in between the feed and going 
down mainly to create an 

160
00:08:54,680 --> 00:08:58,800
opportunity for babies to 
potentially just to not feed to 

161
00:08:58,800 --> 00:08:59,800
sleep. 
Yeah. 

162
00:08:59,800 --> 00:09:01,440
So I think that's creating a 
gap. 

163
00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:03,560
Yeah, the driving force behind 
it. 

164
00:09:03,960 --> 00:09:08,680
So there is some recognition, I 
guess from other people that 

165
00:09:08,680 --> 00:09:13,240
there are, there's a 
significance or a significant 

166
00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:21,960
sort of prop in terms of the 
feeding to sleep like like how 

167
00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:24,400
we always sort of say, you know,
for an older baby, there's a. 

168
00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:29,840
So it's sort of it's helping to 
avoid falling into the trap of 

169
00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:32,200
and there's the strong sleep 
association that can be a 

170
00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:35,720
legitimately unsustainable sleep
association of feeding to sleep.

171
00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:38,560
So if you sort of follow the 
mantra of feed, place, sleep, 

172
00:09:38,560 --> 00:09:42,720
then you've eliminated the feed 
to sleep aspect that can be 

173
00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:45,880
tricky for so many families. 
Correct. 

174
00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:49,400
And it can work. 
I think it's a great strategy to

175
00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:51,080
give new parents. 
Absolutely. 

176
00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:58,440
I feel like it's easy to do for 
a lot of families, obviously 

177
00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:01,240
when they're really little, like
you don't have a lot of time up 

178
00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:03,240
your sleeve. 
A lot of feeds can take 30 to 40

179
00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:04,720
minutes. 
But before they're sort of 

180
00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:07,080
they're completed and you know, 
there might be a little bit of 

181
00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:09,640
digging around in between like 
you're changing nappies and so 

182
00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:12,640
forth is a bit of a vom. 
There's lots of things going on.

183
00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:15,400
And for, you know, tiny babies, 
their awake windows are only 45 

184
00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:18,360
to 60 minutes. 
So you're you're working against

185
00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:22,040
the clock in terms of trying to 
put an activity or the nappy. 

186
00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:25,160
Change is the activity. 
That's the activity, yeah, for 

187
00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:26,120
sure. 
Dazzle. 

188
00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:29,520
Yeah. 
And then of course the feed is 

189
00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:32,600
so close to going down that it 
can really like, you know, 

190
00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:34,960
they're really like there's a, 
there's a nappy change in 

191
00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:36,640
between the feed and going off 
to sleep. 

192
00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:40,160
So, so at least you've put 
something in in the mix, which 

193
00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:41,280
is great. 
And then, you know, when they're

194
00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:44,560
little for a lot of families as 
well, the babies are taking sort

195
00:10:44,560 --> 00:10:47,600
of quite decent stretches. 
You know, so the, the naps in 

196
00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:50,280
they can sometimes be an hour 
and a half, two hours long, 

197
00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:52,680
which in which case you're sort 
of like really cheering, like 

198
00:10:52,680 --> 00:10:54,320
think like I've got a great 
sleeper. 

199
00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:57,080
And then all of a sudden babies 
tend to wake up. 

200
00:10:57,200 --> 00:11:00,000
And that could be around that 
sort of two week mark where, you

201
00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:02,040
know, two to four weeks, your 
naps start to sort of have a 

202
00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:06,120
little bit of a decline in the 
length of time that they're 

203
00:11:07,360 --> 00:11:12,080
sleeping for. 
And and then this is where and 

204
00:11:12,280 --> 00:11:16,000
not sort of in the 1st 6 to 8 
weeks, I feel like it can be a 

205
00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:20,200
really great strategy to use. 
But at some point, whether 

206
00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:24,320
that's eight weeks, 12 weeks, 
four months later down the 

207
00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:28,160
track, there is going to be a 
point where the feed, play, 

208
00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:35,200
sleep doesn't work anymore. 
I find it has a shelf life if 

209
00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:37,000
you end up with a cat napping 
baby. 

210
00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:41,120
I actually have no issue with 
the concept of feed play, sleep 

211
00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:46,400
as a concept. 
In fact, it makes sense to me as

212
00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:50,520
a sort of an ideology for 
families to take into How do I 

213
00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:55,760
create some structure to my day?
Like what do what step comes 

214
00:11:55,760 --> 00:11:57,880
first? 
And because you and I are always

215
00:11:57,880 --> 00:12:02,880
wanting to future proof to avoid
having to undo feeding to sleep 

216
00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:08,280
when it becomes unsustainable, 
we can sort of have avoided that

217
00:12:08,360 --> 00:12:12,640
by following this ideology of 
feed, play, sleep. 

218
00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:17,680
And so and I also think it's a 
very clear way for a tired brain

219
00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:21,560
to just know what's coming next,
even for an older baby. 

220
00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:25,040
I full transparency, I followed 
it. 

221
00:12:25,400 --> 00:12:30,320
I followed it with my first I, 
but I never had sleep issues. 

222
00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:33,320
I never had cat napping and I 
never had feeding issues. 

223
00:12:33,560 --> 00:12:39,520
So by the time she woke it, it 
was kind of just a great spaced 

224
00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:42,920
feeding, But I didn't 
necessarily, I didn't, I wasn't 

225
00:12:42,920 --> 00:12:45,640
watching the clock, so to speak 
of like I'm not going to feed 

226
00:12:45,640 --> 00:12:50,920
before now the problem where it 
arrived, well, where the problem

227
00:12:50,920 --> 00:12:54,080
arises for me. 
And a lot of people then think, 

228
00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:55,600
I don't know now what to do with
this. 

229
00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:58,600
Like I'm trying so hard to 
follow this prescription is when

230
00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:02,520
your baby sleeps for 32 minutes 
on the dosh and then you're 

231
00:13:02,520 --> 00:13:05,280
meant to feed again. 
But you just fed an hour and a 

232
00:13:05,280 --> 00:13:08,760
half ago and this baby's eight 
months old and you're stuck in 

233
00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:13,000
a, you're feeding them like a 
newborn because they're going to

234
00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:16,800
do a short nap awake window, a 
short nap away and you're just 

235
00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:20,160
feeding constantly. 
And that's the snacky cycle that

236
00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:21,920
a lot of families find 
themselves in when they're 

237
00:13:21,920 --> 00:13:25,000
following it by the book of 
literally feed, play, sleep, 

238
00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:27,520
like immediately feed upon 
waking. 

239
00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:32,120
It's really, really common. 
Yes, it's a great strategy. 

240
00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:35,560
And this is what when I'm 
reading logs from, you know, new

241
00:13:35,560 --> 00:13:38,760
clients and I've got a 48 hour 
log coming in, it's probably the

242
00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:41,840
most common thing that I see is 
that, you know, babies awake and

243
00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:47,120
they feed and so forth. 
And, and it comes from a place 

244
00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:54,320
of wanting to do the best for 
avoiding the feeding to sleep, 

245
00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:58,280
like, yeah, because if you're, 
if you're wanting to sort of be 

246
00:13:58,280 --> 00:14:01,160
actively working on sleep, a lot
of families will employ this 

247
00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:04,880
method because that they want to
avoid it. 

248
00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:09,480
However, the, the subsequent 
issue that comes from avoiding 

249
00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:12,840
the whole feeding to sleep is 
that like you said, we start to 

250
00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:17,080
have these snacky type feeds. 
So instead of feeding like every

251
00:14:17,080 --> 00:14:20,840
3 to 4 hour leaf, depending on 
the age, you can be feeding 

252
00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:24,040
every 1 1/2 to two hours. 
And those feeds aren't complete 

253
00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:26,600
feeds. 
They might start feeling like 

254
00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:32,360
complete feeds because you're so
used to a feed being done within

255
00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:35,440
4 to 6 minutes. 
And so you're sort of thinking 

256
00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:37,160
that's a full feed for my little
one. 

257
00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:41,120
And with everything's coming 
along hunky Dory where, you 

258
00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:43,120
know, we're feeding every like 2
to 3 hours. 

259
00:14:43,560 --> 00:14:48,800
A feed is like 4 to 6 minutes. 
We're all done, but you're 

260
00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:51,400
topping up, not tanking up. 
And so this is where it can be 

261
00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:55,520
really hard to start working on 
naps or extend naps because two 

262
00:14:55,520 --> 00:15:00,040
things happen. 
Your baby is topping up so 

263
00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:03,320
frequently that their internal 
clock is wired into expecting a 

264
00:15:03,320 --> 00:15:08,400
feed every two hours. 
And so if their wake window is 

265
00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:11,400
quite short and you're putting 
them down to have a nap, so 

266
00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:18,320
let's just say at five months, 
you've got a wake window of say 

267
00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:21,840
2 hours. 
And so you're fed when they woke

268
00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:23,960
up. 
So let's just say 7:00, they're 

269
00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:28,920
awake, they're fed, and then 
they've gone back down at 9:00. 

270
00:15:28,920 --> 00:15:31,840
But they typically feed every 
two to three hours. 

271
00:15:31,840 --> 00:15:35,160
Then it's really hard for them 
to link a sleep cycle and extend

272
00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:38,840
the nap because they've only 
just had a really tiny feed at 

273
00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:41,160
7:00 because they're feeding all
through the night, every two 

274
00:15:41,160 --> 00:15:43,360
hours. 
They've only just topped up and 

275
00:15:43,360 --> 00:15:46,240
now they're they're going 
through a transitional phase of 

276
00:15:46,240 --> 00:15:49,640
sleep. 
So that 20 to 30 minute mark and

277
00:15:49,640 --> 00:15:52,920
now it's 9:30 and they want to 
take over into a deep sleep 

278
00:15:52,920 --> 00:15:56,360
phase, but their internal clock 
is saying, hey, you normally 

279
00:15:56,360 --> 00:15:59,880
have a feed about now and that's
more enticing. 

280
00:15:59,880 --> 00:16:02,880
And then they're starting to get
those sort of hanger hanger 

281
00:16:02,880 --> 00:16:06,160
hunger pangs all over again, 
which means then that they're 

282
00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:09,600
stimulated enough to wake and 
actually have a full blown 

283
00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:11,800
arousal. 
And now they're waking because 

284
00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:16,040
they are genuinely searching out
a little bit of extra food. 

285
00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:20,520
It can be really hard to work on
on lengthening out naps when 

286
00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:22,360
you're stuck in a feed play 
sleep cycle. 

287
00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:26,680
Yes, we need to. 
I think it's the place to start 

288
00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:30,480
though, particularly if you're 
just wanting to make change from

289
00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:34,560
moving away to feed to sleep. 
Absolutely start moving towards 

290
00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:37,760
the concept of feed play sleep. 
We're going to take it one step 

291
00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:42,280
further though, and actually 
move to surprise, surprise, 

292
00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:45,760
anchored feed times. 
So technically it is still feed,

293
00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:50,960
play sleep, but there's a gap in
between, in between the I wake, 

294
00:16:51,160 --> 00:16:53,200
you'll immediately feed me 
after. 

295
00:16:53,440 --> 00:16:56,000
And the other thing to remember 
is that babies are sort of 

296
00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:59,440
primed to feed upon waking, 
whether it's a 20 minute nap or 

297
00:16:59,440 --> 00:17:03,600
a two hour 20 minute nap. 
And so it's actually takes a 

298
00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:07,480
little bit of practise and to 
nudge the body clock to know, Oh

299
00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:10,400
no, this is when we're going to 
start the feed. 

300
00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:12,480
This is when I get hungry, this 
is when I nap. 

301
00:17:12,760 --> 00:17:14,520
And it only takes a couple of 
days. 

302
00:17:14,839 --> 00:17:18,720
But we're it's we do sort of 
feed play sleep on steroids, if 

303
00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:22,319
that makes sense. 
Like it's it's we move to space 

304
00:17:22,319 --> 00:17:25,520
feeding when we are looking to 
fix a problem, if you will, like

305
00:17:25,520 --> 00:17:29,040
me, where baby just takes great 
naps, the timings kind of a 

306
00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:31,880
line, you've got no issues, no 
big deal. 

307
00:17:31,880 --> 00:17:33,520
You don't need to change a 
thing. 

308
00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:37,680
It's if you are stuck in. 
I'm really trying to do feed, 

309
00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:41,720
play, sleep, but it doesn't make
sense because we have a cat 

310
00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:46,480
napper and then a snacker and 
then a short wake window and so 

311
00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:50,440
the cycle continues. 
The other thing I think can 

312
00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:55,440
sometimes become confusing is 
even when families listen to us 

313
00:17:55,440 --> 00:17:57,680
and say, OK, we're going to move
to space feeding. 

314
00:17:57,920 --> 00:18:02,080
I have a cat napper, though, and
by the time they like your 

315
00:18:02,080 --> 00:18:04,560
scheduled feed would be when 
they next go back down. 

316
00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:07,000
That's where we sort of, it's 
never about one thing in 

317
00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:09,360
isolation. 
We would actually be looking at,

318
00:18:09,360 --> 00:18:12,760
well, how do we structure your 
naps and how do you resettle and

319
00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:16,200
how do you assist your baby to 
go to sleep at these times and 

320
00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:20,000
stay asleep so that we can break
out of the cat napping cycle so 

321
00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:24,160
you can get your great beads in.
Yeah, and it all kind of needs 

322
00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:28,400
to flow on together. 
It probably sounds complicated 

323
00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:30,440
listening. 
It's actually once you see a 

324
00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:34,560
plan, it does all make sense. 
But feed, play, sleep is the 

325
00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:37,040
concept. 
We take it one step further and 

326
00:18:37,040 --> 00:18:40,200
have your anchored feed times. 
This is true. 

327
00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:44,400
There's sometimes like when 
we're doing anchored feeds if 

328
00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:46,920
like if the naps have been a 
little bit wonky, which you 

329
00:18:46,920 --> 00:18:48,800
know, that's just babies and 
life. 

330
00:18:48,800 --> 00:18:52,960
And yeah, that's not where 
there's times, particularly in 

331
00:18:52,960 --> 00:18:57,400
the second half of the afternoon
where it might be that the nap 

332
00:18:58,240 --> 00:19:03,680
lands directly after a feed. 
So you, you know, all like 

333
00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:06,160
they're due for a feed at the 
same time they're, they're due 

334
00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:09,160
to go down. 
And in these moments, it's not 

335
00:19:09,160 --> 00:19:12,440
about the feeding to sleep. 
It's more about the calories. 

336
00:19:12,680 --> 00:19:14,600
It's more about getting the 
great calories. 

337
00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:18,560
And because there's, it's, it's 
better to have a baby who's got 

338
00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:22,080
a super full tummy and they've 
had a really great milk feed. 

339
00:19:22,400 --> 00:19:26,960
And don't sweat the self settle 
because you've got, you know, 

340
00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:29,680
you've got bedtime, you've got 
overnight, you've got the other 

341
00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:32,120
two or three naps through the 
day that you can work on. 

342
00:19:32,120 --> 00:19:38,120
Like it's, we can definitely 
create moments where it takes 

343
00:19:38,120 --> 00:19:41,480
the pressure off, like taking 
the pressure off, having to do a

344
00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:46,040
self settle because ultimately 
the way that we work is these 

345
00:19:46,040 --> 00:19:49,120
anchored feeds, the more 
calories we've got in the system

346
00:19:49,120 --> 00:19:53,480
through the day, those naps are 
organically going to be easier 

347
00:19:53,480 --> 00:19:59,320
to take and lengthen out. 
So we're not hyper focused on 

348
00:19:59,320 --> 00:20:02,320
the self settling ordinarily in 
those first few days. 

349
00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:06,240
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. 
When we're initially making the 

350
00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:10,480
change, yeah, we actually got a 
question that came through on 

351
00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:13,920
Spotify, which I think is a 
great catalyst for how that we 

352
00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:16,800
could unpack this topic a little
bit more. 

353
00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:22,360
So Rach says I'm trying to space
out feeds for my 5 month old on 

354
00:20:22,360 --> 00:20:25,200
4 naps. 
A sleep consultant has told me I

355
00:20:25,200 --> 00:20:28,840
need to follow feed play sleep 
religiously to stop the four to 

356
00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:31,800
five night wakings. 
I can't seem to make the math 

357
00:20:31,800 --> 00:20:34,080
math with naps and for hourly 
feeds. 

358
00:20:34,080 --> 00:20:37,880
For example, if he sleeps for 60
minutes I can't feed yet because

359
00:20:37,880 --> 00:20:39,800
it's only been two hours, 
etcetera. 

360
00:20:40,040 --> 00:20:42,520
How does this work with a feed 
play sleep routine? 

361
00:20:42,560 --> 00:20:47,040
Any tips would be amazing. 
Let's do a let's do a little 

362
00:20:47,400 --> 00:20:53,680
deep dive on how we would 
structure this and why feed, 

363
00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:56,760
play, sleep isn't going to work 
in this scenario. 

364
00:20:57,520 --> 00:21:00,640
Yeah. 
So 5 months old on 4 naps. 

365
00:21:01,800 --> 00:21:05,640
I think the issue for me that 
jumps out immediately is that 

366
00:21:06,320 --> 00:21:09,960
the feed you've been told to 
feed play sleep religiously 

367
00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:13,720
because you are stuck there. 
You have no wriggle room to do 

368
00:21:13,720 --> 00:21:17,240
anything but be at the whim of 
the length of a baby's nap if 

369
00:21:17,240 --> 00:21:18,640
you have to follow it 
religiously. 

370
00:21:19,600 --> 00:21:21,480
Yeah, that's right. 
And the 4th so. 

371
00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:24,040
Already the math. 
The 4th nap as well. 

372
00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:25,880
Yeah. 
So the 4th nap doesn't really 

373
00:21:25,880 --> 00:21:29,600
give you a lot of time. 
Like if you're trying to jam 4 

374
00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:33,560
naps in plus a four hour wake 
window, that actually tends to 

375
00:21:33,560 --> 00:21:36,560
sort of move into quite a late 
bedtime, I would imagine. 

376
00:21:38,480 --> 00:21:40,000
What do you mean just? 
Trying to wake window. 

377
00:21:40,840 --> 00:21:43,040
You mean 4 hourly phase? 
Four hourly phase, Yeah, sorry, 

378
00:21:43,400 --> 00:21:46,080
sorry for anyone, that's anyone 
that's just tuned in. 

379
00:21:46,080 --> 00:21:50,720
I had to put my fan on quite 
high in the office because I was

380
00:21:50,760 --> 00:21:54,000
literally melting away. 
So my my brain melted a little 

381
00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:55,680
bit as well. 
So I'm just getting it back 

382
00:21:55,680 --> 00:21:59,560
together now as I cool down. 
So if you can hear, if you can 

383
00:21:59,560 --> 00:22:02,040
hear the fan on in the 
background, I do apologise, but 

384
00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:05,000
it's the only way I can. 
Turn No, we don't clearly need a

385
00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:07,560
puddle. 
Yeah, that's right. 

386
00:22:08,800 --> 00:22:12,200
Look, OK, so yes, that whole 
religious I, I think I 

387
00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:15,000
understand where the sick 
consultant is coming from 

388
00:22:15,080 --> 00:22:20,240
because she is trying to avoid 
the fate to sleep association 

389
00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:24,160
creeping in, but she's banking 
on the naps being really good as

390
00:22:24,160 --> 00:22:27,840
well and sort. 
Of has to, don't you in order to

391
00:22:29,320 --> 00:22:33,160
yeah, they have to be good in 
order to get great feeds in. 

392
00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:36,720
But they're obviously not that 
great because there's a fourth 

393
00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:39,800
nap happening at five months. 
So that's the second thing. 

394
00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:43,440
So the second biggest catalyst 
for why this can't work is 

395
00:22:43,440 --> 00:22:45,360
because there's the fourth nap 
in there. 

396
00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:49,720
And in order to have three naps,
you're going to have to work on 

397
00:22:49,720 --> 00:22:52,680
the naps. 
And for us, the way that we work

398
00:22:52,680 --> 00:22:56,760
on improving naps at this age 
is, is literally anchoring the 

399
00:22:56,760 --> 00:23:02,360
feeds in so that we know we've 
got 2 great boobs going in or a 

400
00:23:02,360 --> 00:23:07,240
really great bottle of 180 to 
240 mills. 2 great boobs did the

401
00:23:07,240 --> 00:23:09,680
major going in. 
Yeah. 

402
00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:13,480
But it's, you know, we just want
those nice full feeds. 

403
00:23:13,640 --> 00:23:16,960
Yeah. 
Going in four hourly so that we 

404
00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:20,440
know that baby is tanking up. 
No more of the topping out, we 

405
00:23:20,440 --> 00:23:24,240
have to go into the tanking out 
kind of strategy and we're 

406
00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:25,760
shifting the internal body 
clock. 

407
00:23:25,880 --> 00:23:29,560
So we're we're creating moments 
in time for the anchored feeds 

408
00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:31,720
to line up with the internal 
clock. 

409
00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:34,560
So the internal clock then 
understands when to release the 

410
00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:37,760
appetite hormone. 
And then if we've got beautiful 

411
00:23:37,760 --> 00:23:41,240
nice four hourly anchored feeds 
in through the day, the internal

412
00:23:41,240 --> 00:23:44,640
clock repeats that process 
overnight. 

413
00:23:44,640 --> 00:23:48,480
Overnight. 
And so that's where you can have

414
00:23:48,680 --> 00:23:52,520
just off the back of structuring
your feeds in through the day 

415
00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:56,880
organically, your nights can 
improve without doing a lot of 

416
00:23:56,880 --> 00:23:59,640
sleep training or any sleep 
training Like you can often see 

417
00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:02,160
results happen like that 
straight off the cuff. 

418
00:24:03,600 --> 00:24:06,720
I also suspect this sleep 
consultant has got the right 

419
00:24:06,720 --> 00:24:12,040
idea in that if we can get more 
feeds in during the day, then we

420
00:24:12,040 --> 00:24:14,800
give the calories back to the 
day and either baby will 

421
00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:17,600
organically sleep a little bit 
better overnight or we can 

422
00:24:17,600 --> 00:24:21,760
resettle some of these wakings 
versus feed feeding all of them.

423
00:24:22,880 --> 00:24:27,040
But what this listener is 
experiencing is the common 

424
00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:32,160
stitch up with this. 
It's the right idea, but the 

425
00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:35,120
math doesn't math. 
She's exactly right. 

426
00:24:35,520 --> 00:24:38,760
And what we often find as well 
is that it feels messy. 

427
00:24:38,800 --> 00:24:41,640
It feels super messy. 
Day one of like, I got to get 

428
00:24:41,640 --> 00:24:44,120
these, these four hourly feeds 
in. 

429
00:24:45,480 --> 00:24:47,920
It's really hard to get a longer
nap in. 

430
00:24:47,920 --> 00:24:50,920
It can also feel intimidating. 
Like just listening to this, it 

431
00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:52,760
could feel like that's all well 
and good. 

432
00:24:52,760 --> 00:24:55,640
My baby will only do 30 to 60 
minutes. 

433
00:24:55,840 --> 00:24:58,400
Oh yeah. 
How on earth am I meant to 

434
00:24:58,680 --> 00:25:01,960
restructure this? 
I'm going to tell you two 

435
00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:04,480
things. 
One is you will be surprised 

436
00:25:04,840 --> 00:25:09,560
when you get even the first of 
the four hourly feeds in or the 

437
00:25:09,560 --> 00:25:12,480
second one in. 
The next snaps will subsequently

438
00:25:12,480 --> 00:25:16,440
already improve because your 
baby has not snacked. 

439
00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:17,840
And that's just going to have to
be. 

440
00:25:17,840 --> 00:25:19,680
You're just going to have to 
take our word for it. 

441
00:25:20,080 --> 00:25:23,400
Yeah. 
It's magic, OK, Trust the 

442
00:25:23,400 --> 00:25:27,080
process. 
The other thing is this is also 

443
00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:31,000
a short term messiness. 
It takes a couple of days for 

444
00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:34,920
everything to start to feel like
it's making more sense. 

445
00:25:34,920 --> 00:25:38,040
When you get your structured nap
timings, you've got your 

446
00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:40,080
anchored feed timings, baby 
starts taking it. 

447
00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:44,520
Supply and demand catches up. 
It takes a couple of days. 

448
00:25:44,520 --> 00:25:49,080
Again, trust the process. 
The other thing is, is that we 

449
00:25:49,080 --> 00:25:52,480
work a little bit differently 
and I've we've never going to 

450
00:25:52,480 --> 00:25:54,040
step on another sleep 
consultants toes. 

451
00:25:54,040 --> 00:25:57,560
And no, I'm not saying that this
sleep consultant has or hasn't 

452
00:25:57,560 --> 00:26:01,480
said this, but we would tell you
to throw every other rule out 

453
00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:04,720
the window of how you try and 
get these longer naps in. 

454
00:26:05,320 --> 00:26:08,080
It can feel counterintuitive 
that when we're wanting to work 

455
00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:12,520
on getting better, more 
independent sleep and move to 

456
00:26:12,840 --> 00:26:16,200
anchored feed times that Beck 
and I would say you're going to 

457
00:26:16,200 --> 00:26:19,160
do a 12:45 till 2:15 nap in the 
car. 

458
00:26:20,080 --> 00:26:22,720
Yeah, as your sleep. 
Consultants or in your arm the. 

459
00:26:22,720 --> 00:26:24,520
Pram Yeah, What should you want 
to watch? 

460
00:26:24,520 --> 00:26:29,960
Netflix or pop baby down, have a
wee 32 minutes sleep cycle. 

461
00:26:30,240 --> 00:26:32,640
You're going to hold them for 
the rest of it and rock on the 

462
00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:35,520
rocking chair and listen to this
podcast or something more 

463
00:26:35,520 --> 00:26:38,840
entertaining. 
We won't play this, but that's 

464
00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:41,320
how you do it. 
That's how you do it initially. 

465
00:26:41,320 --> 00:26:46,840
This is about sustainable 
staggered sleep and by 

466
00:26:46,960 --> 00:26:50,480
relinquishing the like, the idea
of having to do anything 

467
00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:53,280
religiously, I think is what 
will give you the freedom to be 

468
00:26:53,280 --> 00:26:56,400
like, I'm going to rescue this 
nap because I just need to get 

469
00:26:56,400 --> 00:26:58,360
it in. 
Look, we've made it to the next 

470
00:26:58,360 --> 00:26:59,760
4 hour. 
We feed, gosh, this one's 

471
00:26:59,760 --> 00:27:02,560
already bigger. 
We've had a happy awake window. 

472
00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:05,640
This baby just went down for the
next 1. 

473
00:27:05,680 --> 00:27:10,640
And that's that's the process. 
It is the process and it also 

474
00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:14,360
means that you're going into 
bedtime well rested and then if 

475
00:27:14,360 --> 00:27:18,480
you can get bigger chunks of the
night, say instead of waking 

476
00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:20,880
every two hours for a feed 
overnight and so forth. 

477
00:27:20,880 --> 00:27:24,040
But now you're, you've got 2 
feeds overnight and you might 

478
00:27:24,040 --> 00:27:26,200
have had one or two quick 
resettles. 

479
00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:31,240
Your baby's already had more 
restorative sleep overnight than

480
00:27:31,240 --> 00:27:33,360
they probably have had the night
before. 

481
00:27:33,360 --> 00:27:37,840
If they're going into the day 
more well rested again, they've 

482
00:27:37,840 --> 00:27:41,800
got a better chance of doing 
extra better, extra better, 

483
00:27:42,280 --> 00:27:47,440
extra better for their naps. 
Yeah, it's it's the work through

484
00:27:47,440 --> 00:27:50,080
the day helps the night, the 
night helps the day. 

485
00:27:50,080 --> 00:27:53,560
It's all everything goes in hand
in hand. 

486
00:27:54,160 --> 00:27:56,760
And quite often it's hard to 
know where to start. 

487
00:27:57,280 --> 00:28:02,320
And we we tend to sort of loosen
the idea that we have to do all 

488
00:28:02,320 --> 00:28:06,240
the work all together. 
We just focus on our feeds in 

489
00:28:06,240 --> 00:28:09,400
through the day, the naps, 
however way we can get them to 

490
00:28:09,400 --> 00:28:12,480
improve the nights first, 
because we all know we're not 

491
00:28:12,480 --> 00:28:14,080
all of us. 
I guess that's sort of like a 

492
00:28:14,320 --> 00:28:17,600
sweeping statement, isn't it? 
But the nights will fall into 

493
00:28:17,600 --> 00:28:19,800
place so much more easily than 
the days. 

494
00:28:19,800 --> 00:28:24,440
And so we want to give you the 
best chance of feeling that yes 

495
00:28:24,720 --> 00:28:30,760
moment that'll give you the 
energy and the enthusiasm to 

496
00:28:30,760 --> 00:28:33,800
then keep going because you have
to see some wins somewhere, 

497
00:28:33,800 --> 00:28:36,280
right? 
But one of the the first things 

498
00:28:36,280 --> 00:28:39,800
that you'll notice is when you 
move from the feed place, like 

499
00:28:39,800 --> 00:28:44,240
when it stops working to the 
anchored feeds within the second

500
00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:47,160
or third feed, you're going to 
have that moment of yes. 

501
00:28:47,160 --> 00:28:51,280
Now I feel like this is working.
I can see why this can make a 

502
00:28:51,280 --> 00:28:54,280
big difference. 
And the beauty in that is that 

503
00:28:54,280 --> 00:28:55,960
you will already go into the 
night. 

504
00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:59,600
Let's say this mother might be 
feeding every the four to five 

505
00:28:59,600 --> 00:29:02,680
times for each of them. 
Your babe will either sleep a 

506
00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:06,400
little bit longer because you've
had these much better satiating 

507
00:29:06,400 --> 00:29:09,960
feeds throughout the day. 
But you know that you will then 

508
00:29:09,960 --> 00:29:13,600
automatically mirror your four 
hourly feeds from the day into 

509
00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:16,000
the night. 
So anything that happens between

510
00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:18,960
those four hourly feeds is just 
a resettle. 

511
00:29:19,560 --> 00:29:22,120
The confusion is automatically 
taken out. 

512
00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:25,080
You do 4 hourly feeds during the
day, four hourly feeds, 

513
00:29:25,080 --> 00:29:27,160
overnight resettle, everything 
in between. 

514
00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:30,120
And again, initially we don't 
care how you do it. 

515
00:29:30,320 --> 00:29:33,000
You could be bouncing on that 
football until baby goes back to

516
00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:34,680
sleep. 
We've had parents that have just

517
00:29:34,680 --> 00:29:38,360
stayed in the on the floor 
mattress together just while we 

518
00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:40,560
work on shifting the overnight 
feeds. 

519
00:29:41,040 --> 00:29:45,240
We will then get you to 7:00 AM.
That baby's going to be so happy

520
00:29:45,240 --> 00:29:49,320
to take the breast or bottle 
then, as Beck would say, 2 huge 

521
00:29:49,320 --> 00:29:53,480
boobs at 7:00 AM. 2 great boobs.
2 great boobs. 

522
00:29:53,520 --> 00:29:56,560
Sorry. 2 great boobs. 
Huge will do. 

523
00:29:57,360 --> 00:30:05,320
Interchangeable and it's the 
domino effect in the best way 

524
00:30:05,320 --> 00:30:07,320
possible. 
And you've just dropped a couple

525
00:30:07,320 --> 00:30:09,960
of night feeds. 
We've given calories back to the

526
00:30:09,960 --> 00:30:14,960
day and it starts to make sense.
And you then trust the process. 

527
00:30:15,160 --> 00:30:18,120
Initially you just have to do 
what we say and hope for the 

528
00:30:18,120 --> 00:30:20,080
best. 
And then you'll watch it fall 

529
00:30:20,080 --> 00:30:23,440
into place and you'll know, 
You'll know it's working. 

530
00:30:23,880 --> 00:30:29,920
So I think this is where there's
actually a fair bit to unpack. 

531
00:30:29,920 --> 00:30:34,160
But the thing that's keeping 
your hands tied is this idea of 

532
00:30:34,160 --> 00:30:36,400
religiously working to feed, 
play, sleep. 

533
00:30:37,320 --> 00:30:39,040
Because what if baby does a 30 
minute nap? 

534
00:30:39,040 --> 00:30:42,800
You got to feed then versus 60. 
Like you could end up with feeds

535
00:30:42,800 --> 00:30:46,640
all over the place. 
Well, it's, it's very commonly 

536
00:30:46,640 --> 00:30:50,240
starts to fall apart at the four
month regression because if 

537
00:30:50,240 --> 00:30:56,200
you're doing feed, sorry, feed, 
play, sleep and your baby has 

538
00:30:56,200 --> 00:30:58,960
done, you know, we have lots of 
little ones that will have two 

539
00:30:58,960 --> 00:31:01,320
feeds in the night, maybe one 
feed until the four month 

540
00:31:01,320 --> 00:31:03,520
regression. 
And now they're waking up every 

541
00:31:03,520 --> 00:31:08,720
two hours and it feels, well, 
maybe they go through a growth 

542
00:31:08,720 --> 00:31:11,680
spurt, maybe they're doing this,
maybe it is a regression. 

543
00:31:11,680 --> 00:31:14,320
I'm not sure how to manage that.
And so if you're doing feed, 

544
00:31:14,320 --> 00:31:17,600
play, sleep, then they're waking
up so frequently that you are 

545
00:31:17,600 --> 00:31:21,440
feeding frequently and then it 
all starts to unravel and then 

546
00:31:21,440 --> 00:31:24,080
your days fall into that same 
category. 

547
00:31:24,080 --> 00:31:28,840
So, so there is absolute merit. 
There is absolute merit in it 

548
00:31:28,840 --> 00:31:33,120
and we understand why. 
And it's obviously a tool to use

549
00:31:33,120 --> 00:31:38,080
to encourage families from the 
get go to appreciate that there 

550
00:31:38,080 --> 00:31:43,520
can be a sleep association with 
feeding to sleep, with feeding 

551
00:31:43,520 --> 00:31:46,080
to sleep. 
And here's how to try and avoid 

552
00:31:46,080 --> 00:31:47,960
it. 
And that's great, I think. 

553
00:31:47,960 --> 00:31:51,880
I think as a concept it's great 
and it's a great place to start.

554
00:31:52,160 --> 00:31:56,280
We need to take it one step 
further in our experience for 

555
00:31:56,280 --> 00:32:00,600
this exact scenario that so many
families are facing. 

556
00:32:00,840 --> 00:32:03,800
It also works really well if you
just have a great sleeper. 

557
00:32:04,440 --> 00:32:09,240
Again, you and I work with not 
so flash sleevers and so it's it

558
00:32:09,320 --> 00:32:12,560
becomes a sticking point as well
and it definitely has a shelf 

559
00:32:12,560 --> 00:32:16,200
life when baby is cat napping. 
Absolutely it gets really 

560
00:32:16,200 --> 00:32:17,680
tricky. 
So it's a great. 

561
00:32:17,680 --> 00:32:20,600
Question. 
It was a great question and it's

562
00:32:20,600 --> 00:32:25,960
a great way for us to unpack the
feed, play, sleep concept as a 

563
00:32:25,960 --> 00:32:31,120
whole. 
Happy with that? 

564
00:32:31,640 --> 00:32:33,040
Happy. 
Yeah, great. 

565
00:32:33,400 --> 00:32:38,560
Hopefully I came back to life. 
Indeed, Yeah, I hopefully it 

566
00:32:38,560 --> 00:32:41,960
makes sense with what we were 
talking about at the beginning. 

567
00:32:41,960 --> 00:32:43,760
Yeah, Yeah, we'll be able to 
piece it together. 

568
00:32:43,760 --> 00:32:45,400
I think we've covered it. 
We've covered it. 

569
00:32:45,760 --> 00:32:46,960
That was a perfect question for 
it. 

570
00:32:47,400 --> 00:32:51,120
All right, let me get sleepy 
days up. 

571
00:32:58,970 --> 00:33:01,370
OK. 
All right. 

572
00:33:07,480 --> 00:33:10,640
For the lovers of our Sleepy D 
section, welcome to sleep 

573
00:33:10,640 --> 00:33:12,920
detectives. 
We've just put our monocles on 

574
00:33:13,280 --> 00:33:16,720
and our. 
Sherlock Holmes caps actually my

575
00:33:16,720 --> 00:33:18,640
daughter. 
Where are you guys? 

576
00:33:19,440 --> 00:33:22,200
No I was just going to say so 
many people DM me to say they 

577
00:33:22,200 --> 00:33:23,800
love the sleep detectives. 
The. 

578
00:33:23,800 --> 00:33:25,280
Sleep detectives, we really love
it. 

579
00:33:25,360 --> 00:33:30,720
We really my daughter actually 
got for her birthday from her 

580
00:33:30,720 --> 00:33:34,320
teacher at after school care was
a monocular. 

581
00:33:35,200 --> 00:33:37,640
Oh wow, cool. 
For bird watching. 

582
00:33:37,640 --> 00:33:40,040
But I just just made me think 
about this. 

583
00:33:40,680 --> 00:33:44,960
We do so much bird watching. 
Wow, how amazing. 

584
00:33:45,360 --> 00:33:46,600
Guess what you're doing on the 
weekend? 

585
00:33:46,680 --> 00:33:49,960
Exactly. 
But for that, let me do 

586
00:33:50,040 --> 00:33:52,120
something I actually know about.
I just made me sleep. 

587
00:33:52,160 --> 00:33:54,280
OK. 
This question came through on 

588
00:33:54,320 --> 00:33:58,760
Spotify off our early rising 
protocol episode said thank you 

589
00:33:58,760 --> 00:34:01,280
for this. 
My baby wakes between 5:30 to 

590
00:34:01,280 --> 00:34:06,480
6:00 AM with a 7:30 PM bedtime 
and typically goes back to sleep

591
00:34:06,480 --> 00:34:10,400
if I put the passe back in. 
Someone in a different form said

592
00:34:10,400 --> 00:34:14,360
my baby is just low sleep needs 
and a naturally early riser. 

593
00:34:14,480 --> 00:34:17,440
Is it possible to train him to 
settle in the crib without the 

594
00:34:17,440 --> 00:34:19,679
passe? 
Am I doomed with low sleep 

595
00:34:19,679 --> 00:34:21,480
needs? 
I have so much to say. 

596
00:34:21,480 --> 00:34:24,639
All this Beck. 
This is a great. 

597
00:34:24,639 --> 00:34:27,159
Question. 
Wow, what a what a statement. 

598
00:34:27,440 --> 00:34:31,880
That is a really interesting 
statement to use about what's 

599
00:34:31,880 --> 00:34:34,639
happened to someone. 
Else's baby yeah, yeah, it 

600
00:34:34,639 --> 00:34:37,000
doesn't make sense to me so 
first of all, full disclaimer, 

601
00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:39,239
we don't know how old this baby 
is we. 

602
00:34:40,159 --> 00:34:40,880
Don't know. 
We don't know. 

603
00:34:41,360 --> 00:34:44,040
What we do know is that we know 
that the dummy is working. 

604
00:34:45,120 --> 00:34:49,920
Yeah, I my first thought is 
there's no way I would read that

605
00:34:49,920 --> 00:34:53,400
and think that a baby that is 
then going back to sleep is a 

606
00:34:53,400 --> 00:34:54,600
low. 
It doesn't make sense. 

607
00:34:54,600 --> 00:34:58,680
The baby's going back to sleep. 
If they were truly a low sleep 

608
00:34:58,680 --> 00:35:00,920
needs baby, they are not going 
back to sleep because they have 

609
00:35:00,920 --> 00:35:04,000
met their quota of sleep and 
they are up. 

610
00:35:05,040 --> 00:35:08,600
Yeah, and like a low sleep needs
baby for me would be I'm just 

611
00:35:09,720 --> 00:35:14,280
going to throw numbers out like 
10 hours through the night and 

612
00:35:14,280 --> 00:35:18,400
then still not even maxing out 
on day's sleep, but absolutely 

613
00:35:18,880 --> 00:35:22,000
loving life sick. 
Yeah, happy, so happy about it. 

614
00:35:22,600 --> 00:35:26,040
Like they're not unhappy, 
there's there's no meltdowns, 

615
00:35:26,040 --> 00:35:28,200
they're all the things, you 
know, like that. 

616
00:35:28,400 --> 00:35:33,560
But to me, what time is this 
child going to bed 6. 7:30. 7:30

617
00:35:33,560 --> 00:35:37,880
and then waking at. 5:30 to 6:00
typically goes back to the same 

618
00:35:37,960 --> 00:35:40,920
if I put the passy back in. 
For me, that's called the snooze

619
00:35:40,920 --> 00:35:44,120
button. 
They put the pasi back in in a 

620
00:35:44,120 --> 00:35:46,520
really fragile time of the 
morning and baby goes back to 

621
00:35:46,520 --> 00:35:48,240
sleep. 
That is not a low sleep needs 

622
00:35:48,240 --> 00:35:51,200
baby. 
And I say that to encourage this

623
00:35:51,200 --> 00:35:54,200
mother just be like. 
Yeah, totally you. 

624
00:35:54,200 --> 00:35:57,080
I wouldn't think about taking 
the the Pasi away. 

625
00:35:57,080 --> 00:36:01,800
And like nothing, nothing like 
all of this looks absolutely 

626
00:36:01,800 --> 00:36:05,840
rosy to me. 
Like 100% nothing to see here. 

627
00:36:05,920 --> 00:36:10,280
Like you've got a great sleeper.
The things if we were to take it

628
00:36:10,280 --> 00:36:13,200
one step further in true sleep 
detective style where we start 

629
00:36:13,200 --> 00:36:17,600
to use our imagination is I 
would then think OK, are there 

630
00:36:17,600 --> 00:36:23,960
any other potential causes for 
this ongoing restlessness that 

631
00:36:23,960 --> 00:36:27,920
requires a passing. 
If it is a 5 month old baby that

632
00:36:27,920 --> 00:36:30,600
can't put replace their own 
pacifier or dummy and you're 

633
00:36:30,600 --> 00:36:33,280
just popping it back in and 
we'll see you at 6:45. 

634
00:36:33,560 --> 00:36:36,400
Fantastic. 
No notes, nothing to see here. 

635
00:36:36,400 --> 00:36:39,440
And you can leave that forum 
now. 

636
00:36:39,960 --> 00:36:42,560
It's not serving you. 
Yeah. 

637
00:36:43,120 --> 00:36:47,080
Otherwise, you know, is there 
just a little schedule tweak, a 

638
00:36:47,080 --> 00:36:50,120
little nudge in the right 
direction that maybe we could 

639
00:36:50,200 --> 00:36:54,320
iron that out? 
Maybe also is this baby now old 

640
00:36:54,320 --> 00:36:57,120
enough where we could do a 
little bit of sleep training in 

641
00:36:57,120 --> 00:37:00,600
that hour to say instead of me 
popping it back in could you 

642
00:37:00,600 --> 00:37:04,160
replace it on your own or put 
yourself back to sleep without 

643
00:37:05,080 --> 00:37:08,520
me needing to do it? 
Let's say at 12 months old they 

644
00:37:08,520 --> 00:37:11,840
can find that dummy or that 
passy and put it back in 

645
00:37:11,920 --> 00:37:15,440
themselves. 
But nothing in this screams to 

646
00:37:15,440 --> 00:37:21,280
me naturally early riser or just
low sleep needs, let alone both.

647
00:37:21,280 --> 00:37:24,480
None of the above. 
No, which is great news. 

648
00:37:25,600 --> 00:37:28,360
Well, I think it's and I'm so 
glad that she asked the question

649
00:37:28,360 --> 00:37:33,240
because, yeah, it's, it's so you
can get really heavily 

650
00:37:33,240 --> 00:37:35,440
influenced by other people's 
opinions. 

651
00:37:35,520 --> 00:37:43,760
And some of these labels are 
quite triggering, you know, for 

652
00:37:43,760 --> 00:37:45,880
some families, you know, like 
you and I get. 

653
00:37:45,880 --> 00:37:50,840
Triggered by low sleep needs. 
I do, I I, you know, I really, I

654
00:37:50,840 --> 00:37:53,320
really do. 
I get triggered by split nights 

655
00:37:53,320 --> 00:37:57,800
and yeah, those split nights and
yeah, and and low sleep needs. 

656
00:37:58,880 --> 00:38:03,040
But you know, it's so easy to to
become overwhelmed with. 

657
00:38:03,040 --> 00:38:05,520
Oh my gosh, I've just been told 
we've got a big problem here. 

658
00:38:05,600 --> 00:38:09,080
And then to hear from like the 
experts, actually, there's 

659
00:38:09,080 --> 00:38:13,720
nothing to see here. 
I hope helps her to feel some 

660
00:38:13,720 --> 00:38:18,520
relief and that she's fine. 
It's OK. 

661
00:38:18,520 --> 00:38:22,320
And even if this baby or 
toddler, whoever how old 18 

662
00:38:22,320 --> 00:38:25,040
months to whatever. 
If a dummy, if you go again and 

663
00:38:25,040 --> 00:38:28,720
putting the dummy back in and 
the child goes back off to 

664
00:38:28,720 --> 00:38:32,160
sleep, even at 18 months, what 
about totally fine. 

665
00:38:32,160 --> 00:38:34,320
If you're OK with it, I'm OK 
with it. 

666
00:38:34,600 --> 00:38:38,200
If you wanted to stop, if the 
child was an 18 month, 2 year 

667
00:38:38,200 --> 00:38:41,160
old and you and you wanted to 
stop going in and doing the 

668
00:38:41,160 --> 00:38:43,840
dummy run because you know that 
they can actually find and 

669
00:38:43,840 --> 00:38:46,360
replay it with themselves, then 
just stop going in and doing it.

670
00:38:46,360 --> 00:38:49,960
But you know, and like, that's, 
that's literal advice. 

671
00:38:49,960 --> 00:38:51,720
Like that's what we would, that 
is. 

672
00:38:51,720 --> 00:38:53,480
What? 
But I think this is also a point

673
00:38:53,480 --> 00:38:58,640
of difference of you and I Beck,
is that we would never just say,

674
00:38:59,480 --> 00:39:01,840
OK, well, early rising. 
That's just early rising because

675
00:39:01,840 --> 00:39:05,680
this is a baby. 
Just surrender to that. 

676
00:39:06,720 --> 00:39:10,240
We we will put in the hard work 
to get you more sleep in the 

677
00:39:10,240 --> 00:39:14,400
early hours of the morning. 
Yeah, there's only a handful of 

678
00:39:14,400 --> 00:39:18,760
consultants I think that 
actually dedicated to resolving 

679
00:39:18,760 --> 00:39:22,080
an early rise because it is 
tricky and there's a lot of 

680
00:39:22,440 --> 00:39:24,840
it's, there's a lot of hand 
holding that goes along with it 

681
00:39:24,840 --> 00:39:27,520
because there because it 
doesn't, it's not necessarily 

682
00:39:27,520 --> 00:39:30,720
something that ties up in a nice
little bow within a couple of 

683
00:39:30,720 --> 00:39:32,800
days. 
Like there is repetition, 

684
00:39:32,800 --> 00:39:36,200
consistency, persistence. 
Persistence is the one. 

685
00:39:37,480 --> 00:39:40,600
It's a slog. 
It's, it's a long slog for some 

686
00:39:40,600 --> 00:39:42,600
families, but it's absolutely 
worth it. 

687
00:39:42,920 --> 00:39:48,000
And, and some sleep consultants 
are just, it's too much for them

688
00:39:48,000 --> 00:39:53,720
to want to manage and deal with.
And I understand, yeah, that 

689
00:39:53,720 --> 00:39:56,440
would, you know, like, but we're
ready to tackle that and 

690
00:39:56,440 --> 00:39:59,880
encourage you to do it and to 
encourage you to understand that

691
00:40:00,640 --> 00:40:04,040
the majority of babies that we 
work with and toddlers really 

692
00:40:04,040 --> 00:40:07,200
can get there 11 to 12 hours 
overnight. 

693
00:40:07,280 --> 00:40:11,720
And once you've completed your 
early rising protocol, it's 

694
00:40:11,720 --> 00:40:14,440
something that you typically 
don't have to revisit that 

695
00:40:14,440 --> 00:40:16,320
often. 
And if you did have to revisit 

696
00:40:16,320 --> 00:40:20,320
it 678 months down the track, it
would be a really easy 

697
00:40:20,320 --> 00:40:22,760
resolution and you've got the 
tools to be able to do it. 

698
00:40:24,040 --> 00:40:26,760
It's something that will future 
proof you for a really long 

699
00:40:26,760 --> 00:40:28,920
time. 
And we do the early rise 

700
00:40:28,920 --> 00:40:34,600
protocol because we are 
literally looking forward to 

701
00:40:34,600 --> 00:40:40,240
when your child is 3 or 4 and 
they're going to daycare and if 

702
00:40:40,240 --> 00:40:43,400
they're getting up at 5:30 and 
then daylight savings hits, 

703
00:40:43,400 --> 00:40:46,160
that's 4:30. 
Like I literally think about 

704
00:40:46,160 --> 00:40:49,880
these numbers and I'm like, 
there are families that are 

705
00:40:50,000 --> 00:40:52,520
starting their day early and 
their child is going off to 

706
00:40:52,520 --> 00:40:55,680
childcare. 
And we've got Meltdown Central, 

707
00:40:55,680 --> 00:40:58,480
we've got behavioural. 
It's a very long day for. 

708
00:40:58,560 --> 00:41:01,840
Everyone, because it's so hard, 
like these children are really 

709
00:41:01,840 --> 00:41:04,120
little. 
And if we can help a family get 

710
00:41:04,160 --> 00:41:08,000
through a little later in the 
morning and have a child going 

711
00:41:08,000 --> 00:41:10,880
off to childcare and enjoying 
their day, and you can still 

712
00:41:10,880 --> 00:41:13,160
enjoy a family meal at the other
end. 

713
00:41:13,520 --> 00:41:14,400
Yeah, Yeah. 
That's not true. 

714
00:41:14,760 --> 00:41:17,760
Afternoon. 
Yeah, then then that's what it's

715
00:41:17,760 --> 00:41:23,120
all about, right? 
So, so we do love fixing the 

716
00:41:23,120 --> 00:41:25,800
early rise for families. 
It's I reckon it's one of our 

717
00:41:25,800 --> 00:41:30,640
callings as. 
It is, it is, but there is 

718
00:41:30,640 --> 00:41:34,480
almost nothing to fix in this 
scenario unless it's not yet. 

719
00:41:34,600 --> 00:41:36,760
We're not reading it yet. 
We've gone off now one of our 

720
00:41:36,760 --> 00:41:41,560
tangents. 
But if if you are curious, like 

721
00:41:41,600 --> 00:41:45,000
a schedule review is all, it 
would take just your eyes and 

722
00:41:45,000 --> 00:41:47,880
cross your T's. 
So yeah. 

723
00:41:48,040 --> 00:41:51,520
Actually, that's something that 
we can sort of, you know, 

724
00:41:53,080 --> 00:41:57,120
there's so much information 
within our podcast that if you 

725
00:41:57,120 --> 00:42:00,360
did have a schedule review and 
say you booked in with like a 60

726
00:42:00,360 --> 00:42:03,800
minute consult or something with
either of us and we went through

727
00:42:03,880 --> 00:42:06,480
a fine tooth comb your, your 
scheduling and so forth. 

728
00:42:06,880 --> 00:42:10,640
You could potentially have all 
the tools within these podcast 

729
00:42:10,640 --> 00:42:15,360
episodes to, to, to DIY it. 
Like, I mean, we obviously give 

730
00:42:15,360 --> 00:42:18,760
you all the tips and tools, but 
you've got us in these podcasts 

731
00:42:18,840 --> 00:42:22,000
cheering you on, like giving you
the support backing you. 

732
00:42:23,320 --> 00:42:27,400
So yeah, it's This is why I love
doing the podcast with you, 

733
00:42:27,400 --> 00:42:31,760
Sally, because we're just this 
is our jam and I. 

734
00:42:31,840 --> 00:42:34,680
It is their jam. 
Helping people and. 

735
00:42:35,200 --> 00:42:37,520
Just be like, tell me why. 
Tell me why you love Take the 

736
00:42:37,560 --> 00:42:40,520
Podcast. 
But like the the review that we 

737
00:42:40,520 --> 00:42:44,360
got earlier, you know, like the 
fan mail, you know, people can 

738
00:42:44,360 --> 00:42:46,720
Pierce things together just 
simply from the tips that we're 

739
00:42:46,720 --> 00:42:49,480
giving. 
I don't know, I just, I just 

740
00:42:49,480 --> 00:42:51,440
love it for that reason. 
So nice. 

741
00:42:52,040 --> 00:42:54,320
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. 
And I love. 

742
00:42:54,320 --> 00:42:55,600
Listening to your voice too, 
Sally. 

743
00:42:55,600 --> 00:42:57,760
You're just like you're, well, 
curls of Winston. 

744
00:42:57,880 --> 00:43:04,400
ASMR of Sally. 
OK, let's And on to the next 

745
00:43:04,400 --> 00:43:07,240
question. 
OK, where to start with sleep 

746
00:43:07,240 --> 00:43:11,000
when it's all gone to shit. 
To be fair, was never good. 

747
00:43:11,000 --> 00:43:15,800
But now insert cyclone tornado 
emoji nine months old. 

748
00:43:16,240 --> 00:43:18,680
First of all, you're just not 
alone. 

749
00:43:19,320 --> 00:43:21,640
Yeah, you're just so not alone. 
Beck. 

750
00:43:21,640 --> 00:43:26,200
And I will say all the time, 6 
to 9 month old babies, a dime a 

751
00:43:26,200 --> 00:43:28,080
dozen for us. 
This is the most common age 

752
00:43:28,080 --> 00:43:29,840
group that we work with. 
It's really tricky. 

753
00:43:29,840 --> 00:43:32,920
There's a lot going on and it's 
really normal. 

754
00:43:32,920 --> 00:43:35,320
Also that sleep has never been 
great. 

755
00:43:35,840 --> 00:43:40,400
And then you hit a stage where 
you like we've hit rock bottom. 

756
00:43:41,600 --> 00:43:43,920
Where to if? 
It's if it's never been great, 

757
00:43:43,920 --> 00:43:48,520
quite often you're at the peak 
of assistance, you know, so 

758
00:43:48,520 --> 00:43:52,080
you've probably graduated from 
padding and shushing and rocking

759
00:43:52,080 --> 00:43:56,880
and holding and swaddling and 
bouncing and yoga balls and, you

760
00:43:56,880 --> 00:43:59,000
know, car drives and feeding to 
sleep. 

761
00:43:59,000 --> 00:44:01,640
And you've graduated from all of
those and you literally have 

762
00:44:01,720 --> 00:44:07,280
nothing left up your sleeve in 
terms of, I don't know, like now

763
00:44:07,280 --> 00:44:10,920
we've this is escalated beyond 
and now we're up for hours like 

764
00:44:10,920 --> 00:44:17,080
nothing is actually working. 
And it really does feel like for

765
00:44:17,080 --> 00:44:19,720
better words of the listener, 
like an absolute shit show. 

766
00:44:20,040 --> 00:44:24,400
And where do you start? 
Well, we'll bring it all back 

767
00:44:24,400 --> 00:44:26,560
to, you know, what we were 
talking about earlier in the 

768
00:44:26,560 --> 00:44:28,400
episode? 
Yeah, which is your anchored 

769
00:44:28,400 --> 00:44:30,680
feeds. 
Like that is the first place to 

770
00:44:30,680 --> 00:44:32,120
start. 
Even though we're thinking about

771
00:44:32,120 --> 00:44:35,920
sleep, it boils down to you've 
got to be confident. 

772
00:44:36,160 --> 00:44:41,280
Confidence starts from knowing 
that you can resettle without a 

773
00:44:41,280 --> 00:44:45,720
seed of doubt creeping in that 
this child could potentially be 

774
00:44:45,720 --> 00:44:48,840
hungry and then unravelling all 
the work that you're trying to 

775
00:44:48,840 --> 00:44:51,240
put in. 
So feed times are really 

776
00:44:51,240 --> 00:44:54,160
important. 
When I write a sleep summary 

777
00:44:54,160 --> 00:44:57,080
after a consult or even our 
camps news plans back when we 

778
00:44:57,080 --> 00:45:01,440
write those together, I this is 
the sequence that over the years

779
00:45:01,440 --> 00:45:04,360
that I have followed and maybe 
it's a good way just a little 

780
00:45:04,640 --> 00:45:07,160
itemised checklist for families 
when you're wanting to know 

781
00:45:07,160 --> 00:45:09,400
where to start. 
The first section I always write

782
00:45:09,400 --> 00:45:12,440
is the environment. 
Is baby warm enough? 

783
00:45:12,760 --> 00:45:15,880
Too cold, too hot, too bright, 
too dark? 

784
00:45:15,880 --> 00:45:17,880
Have we got white noise on? 
Have we got dummies? 

785
00:45:17,880 --> 00:45:21,200
Have we got comforters? 
Have we set up an environment 

786
00:45:21,200 --> 00:45:24,600
that is conducive to great 
sleep, that is working with your

787
00:45:24,600 --> 00:45:27,040
baby's biology? 
Tick, tick, tick. 

788
00:45:27,120 --> 00:45:28,680
All of which is within our 
control. 

789
00:45:28,920 --> 00:45:31,880
Nothing has to be pretty. 
You whack a blanket up against 

790
00:45:31,880 --> 00:45:34,240
the curtain, doesn't matter. 
You can do that today. 

791
00:45:35,200 --> 00:45:38,320
Once I've ticked all the boxes 
for environment, I then move on 

792
00:45:38,320 --> 00:45:43,160
to scheduling, getting on to a 
great age appropriate schedule. 

793
00:45:43,200 --> 00:45:45,760
And don't forget, Beck and I 
work with babies who'd love to 

794
00:45:45,760 --> 00:45:48,720
not follow the play and still 
take short naps. 

795
00:45:48,840 --> 00:45:52,320
But we're talking about when is 
up time in the morning. 

796
00:45:52,560 --> 00:45:55,000
If your baby sleeps longer, even
if they've had a shocking night,

797
00:45:55,000 --> 00:45:58,000
you are going to get your baby 
up at the same time every single

798
00:45:58,000 --> 00:46:00,120
morning. 
Open those blinds and start the 

799
00:46:00,120 --> 00:46:02,960
day with a great milk feed or 
breakfast. 

800
00:46:02,960 --> 00:46:06,800
If they're much older you can, 
you're going to have the timing 

801
00:46:06,800 --> 00:46:10,360
of your first nap and that's not
going to budget that really it 

802
00:46:10,360 --> 00:46:14,760
rarely for us will budget. 
And then that starts your day 

803
00:46:14,840 --> 00:46:17,800
off in the right direction. 
You're going to use your wake 

804
00:46:17,800 --> 00:46:21,040
windows. 
It also includes feeds as you 

805
00:46:21,040 --> 00:46:24,520
were just talking about where 
are your milk feeds? 

806
00:46:24,880 --> 00:46:27,640
What are the volumes, the two 
great boobs or a full bottle? 

807
00:46:27,840 --> 00:46:31,360
What does that look like? 
Also solids. 

808
00:46:31,440 --> 00:46:33,640
Where are solids and what would 
that look like? 

809
00:46:33,640 --> 00:46:35,680
How many tablespoons? 
How many cups? 

810
00:46:35,840 --> 00:46:37,800
All age dependent. 
We will tell you where to put 

811
00:46:37,800 --> 00:46:39,840
that. 
Which then brings us to the 

812
00:46:39,840 --> 00:46:43,280
bedtime routine. 
This is the sequence of steps 

813
00:46:43,280 --> 00:46:45,760
you were going to take to get 
you to bedtime. 

814
00:46:46,120 --> 00:46:50,440
And then we're going to talk 
about how to teach your baby to 

815
00:46:50,440 --> 00:46:53,640
self settle at bedtime and how 
to then follow that through with

816
00:46:53,640 --> 00:46:57,280
resettles overnight for anything
that's not a fade. 

817
00:46:57,880 --> 00:47:00,360
And so that's really how I break
it down. 

818
00:47:00,400 --> 00:47:04,800
I go environment schedule feeds 
and overnight feeds and then a 

819
00:47:04,800 --> 00:47:08,120
settling technique. 
Yes, correct. 

820
00:47:09,400 --> 00:47:13,680
Thank you for so easy does it. 
Yeah, totally. 

821
00:47:15,440 --> 00:47:16,760
Well, we're, we're exactly the 
same. 

822
00:47:17,160 --> 00:47:20,000
The, the, the sleep environment 
is super important. 

823
00:47:20,000 --> 00:47:26,480
And something that 
interestingly, I'm seeing a lot 

824
00:47:26,480 --> 00:47:33,480
of recently is a reluctance to 
use sleeping bags for warmth. 

825
00:47:35,800 --> 00:47:39,600
I actually don't think I've ever
seen as many clients come to me 

826
00:47:40,080 --> 00:47:43,280
in the long, long time that I've
been doing this. 

827
00:47:43,320 --> 00:47:48,320
This is probably this last year.
I have seen so many parents not 

828
00:47:49,120 --> 00:47:53,840
not swaddling or using sleeping 
bags or blankets anything like 

829
00:47:53,840 --> 00:47:54,800
nothing. 
They'll just pop. 

830
00:47:54,880 --> 00:47:57,160
Baby back down. 
Do you think it's it's that that

831
00:47:57,480 --> 00:48:02,920
fear of overheating? 
Yeah, because I heard I went to 

832
00:48:02,920 --> 00:48:09,120
an in home a few weeks ago and 
she said yes, she because she 

833
00:48:09,120 --> 00:48:15,080
said that in the hospital they 
have said to her cold babies 

834
00:48:15,080 --> 00:48:18,440
cry, hot babies die. 
Isn't that the most? 

835
00:48:18,800 --> 00:48:21,720
It is disgusting. 
Yeah, horrible saying. 

836
00:48:21,720 --> 00:48:24,200
I think it. 
Yeah, I see it all the time in 

837
00:48:24,200 --> 00:48:27,120
my comments when I make anything
about how to dress a baby 

838
00:48:27,120 --> 00:48:30,120
overnight. 
And I had only heard that 

839
00:48:30,240 --> 00:48:33,920
because you had told me that 
somebody had said that in your 

840
00:48:33,920 --> 00:48:37,120
comment thing. 
And I was like, God, that is so 

841
00:48:37,120 --> 00:48:40,200
gross to say that can you you 
can't. 

842
00:48:40,200 --> 00:48:43,040
And like even just repeating it,
I feel like I've got like 

843
00:48:43,040 --> 00:48:49,360
shivers going down my spine and 
for hospitals to be saying this 

844
00:48:49,360 --> 00:48:53,200
to new families, like now I 
understand why I'm seeing so 

845
00:48:53,200 --> 00:48:58,720
much of it because there is like
parents are petrified, literally

846
00:48:58,720 --> 00:49:03,640
petrified of their child not 
making it through the night. 

847
00:49:03,680 --> 00:49:08,440
And in doing, in feeling that 
way, they are doing everything 

848
00:49:08,440 --> 00:49:10,200
within their power to make sure 
that doesn't happen. 

849
00:49:10,200 --> 00:49:14,720
And so they, you know, and, and 
so it kind of makes sense like 

850
00:49:14,720 --> 00:49:19,320
in a, in a, in a really, gosh, 
in a, in a big stretch, you 

851
00:49:19,320 --> 00:49:22,920
know, I would rather, I don't 
want to risk them being hot 

852
00:49:22,920 --> 00:49:25,040
because it's summer. 
I don't want to risk them being 

853
00:49:25,040 --> 00:49:27,640
hot in a sleeping bag. 
What if the .5 tog bag is too 

854
00:49:27,640 --> 00:49:30,160
hot for my room? 
Because first time parents, you 

855
00:49:30,160 --> 00:49:32,680
really have no idea, you know 
what I mean? 

856
00:49:32,680 --> 00:49:35,280
Like you're literally winging it
and you can be reading all the 

857
00:49:35,280 --> 00:49:37,880
information that still feel like
you know absolutely nothing and 

858
00:49:37,880 --> 00:49:41,240
listening to us and still feel 
like you've got no, no real 

859
00:49:41,240 --> 00:49:44,080
information coming through that 
makes you feel good about a 

860
00:49:44,120 --> 00:49:47,840
scenario. 
So I can understand now why this

861
00:49:47,840 --> 00:49:51,320
is happening and I feel a bit 
sad about it to be honest, 

862
00:49:51,320 --> 00:49:52,280
because. 
It's a really. 

863
00:49:52,280 --> 00:49:56,560
Shocking thing to say. 
Playing on the extreme where 

864
00:49:56,920 --> 00:49:59,520
where we do know, you know, 
research shows that there is a 

865
00:49:59,520 --> 00:50:04,200
link between overheating and 
seeds, we're not talking about 

866
00:50:04,200 --> 00:50:07,120
overheating when we're not 
talking about that. 

867
00:50:07,120 --> 00:50:11,120
We're talking about using a 
really appropriate, thermally 

868
00:50:11,120 --> 00:50:16,160
regulated TOG rated sleeping bag
in the matching temperature. 

869
00:50:16,160 --> 00:50:18,960
Room. 
Yeah, these bags have been 

870
00:50:18,960 --> 00:50:22,120
thermally tested for these 
particular temperature ranges. 

871
00:50:22,120 --> 00:50:26,400
And so that's where you can get 
your confidence that you are 

872
00:50:26,400 --> 00:50:28,120
dressing your baby 
appropriately. 

873
00:50:28,440 --> 00:50:31,280
Yeah. 
So you know, so that's where it 

874
00:50:31,280 --> 00:50:34,720
sort of stems from. 
I'd love for that to be reviewed

875
00:50:35,040 --> 00:50:36,520
in terms of information. 
Yeah, yeah. 

876
00:50:36,640 --> 00:50:41,360
We just ditched that saying and 
educate around how to use a 

877
00:50:41,360 --> 00:50:45,160
sleeping bag appropriately. 
Yes, but going back to where do 

878
00:50:45,160 --> 00:50:46,200
you start? 
Absolutely. 

879
00:50:46,280 --> 00:50:50,800
Environment sleep environment 
sleep, environment, scheduling, 

880
00:50:51,480 --> 00:50:54,080
confidence techniques. 
All the things, All the things 

881
00:50:54,080 --> 00:50:55,480
we. 
Can do and also reaching out for

882
00:50:55,480 --> 00:50:59,840
help if you've hit nine months 
and you just think I can't I've 

883
00:50:59,840 --> 00:51:01,640
I've been doing all of this for 
so long. 

884
00:51:01,640 --> 00:51:03,680
I have tried so hard to pace it 
all together. 

885
00:51:04,960 --> 00:51:09,760
Hello, welcome to now Trout. 
We will take care of you whether

886
00:51:09,760 --> 00:51:12,040
it's together, whether it's 
separately, whether it's in 

887
00:51:12,040 --> 00:51:14,640
content. 
This is what we do. 

888
00:51:14,920 --> 00:51:17,920
This is exactly what we do. 
You just relinquish the thinking

889
00:51:17,920 --> 00:51:22,600
to us and it's such a great age.
It's a great. 

890
00:51:22,600 --> 00:51:26,040
Place so possible. 
Yeah, yeah, yeah, absolutely. 

891
00:51:26,040 --> 00:51:29,960
No more messing around. 
OK, well, that was sleep 

892
00:51:29,960 --> 00:51:34,160
detectives meets our what is it 
soapbox? 

893
00:51:34,800 --> 00:51:37,680
I'm not sleeping bags. 
You're welcome. 

894
00:51:39,080 --> 00:51:46,040
And star wife Beck, what have 
you got for us for our Fast 4 

895
00:51:47,000 --> 00:51:48,720
this week? 
Fast 4 I'm just going to leave. 

896
00:51:48,720 --> 00:51:51,120
This up to you. 
OK, of course. 

897
00:51:52,000 --> 00:51:58,880
OK, so surprise for. 
So is that staying in or am I 

898
00:51:58,880 --> 00:52:07,360
doing an intro the fast for this
week? 

899
00:52:07,360 --> 00:52:17,240
We're going to discuss in. 
Oh, the suspense slow for. 

900
00:52:20,360 --> 00:52:22,640
Because I was going to say 
because like last week we said 

901
00:52:22,640 --> 00:52:24,760
Fast forward and I was like Fast
forward, Fast forward. 

902
00:52:24,960 --> 00:52:28,600
And then it ended up being a 
really long winded 4. 

903
00:52:30,120 --> 00:52:31,640
It's on brand. 
It's on brand. 

904
00:52:32,320 --> 00:52:34,960
OK so Fast forward this week 
which will probably turn into 

905
00:52:34,960 --> 00:52:40,760
quite a slow 4 is 3 hours later 
the introduction. 

906
00:52:43,200 --> 00:52:48,400
I want to write your favourite 
biscuits because I just love 

907
00:52:48,400 --> 00:52:50,120
biscuits. 
Biscuits are my vice. 

908
00:52:50,120 --> 00:52:53,360
I don't like, you know some 
people love chips, some people 

909
00:52:53,360 --> 00:52:57,080
like ice cream. 
I am a big biscuit person, I 

910
00:52:57,080 --> 00:52:59,240
love them. 
I could get around biscuits each

911
00:52:59,240 --> 00:53:01,120
and every day, that would be my 
jam. 

912
00:53:01,720 --> 00:53:03,920
What do you like in a biscuit? 
What's your favourite? 

913
00:53:05,160 --> 00:53:08,160
You go first because I got to 
think about this for a second. 

914
00:53:09,000 --> 00:53:13,240
OK, well, I there's two 
different types of biscuits for 

915
00:53:13,240 --> 00:53:14,760
me. 
There's there's the like the 

916
00:53:14,760 --> 00:53:18,880
classics, and then there are 
like the treat biscuits. 

917
00:53:19,160 --> 00:53:23,320
Oh, OK. 
And and so my, my, I actually 

918
00:53:23,320 --> 00:53:25,320
love a classic biscuit. 
You're probably going to laugh. 

919
00:53:25,320 --> 00:53:28,400
My favourite biscuit of all time
is the milk arrowroot. 

920
00:53:29,800 --> 00:53:36,000
I just love them so many ways 
with the milk arrow beiges. 

921
00:53:36,000 --> 00:53:39,000
I know, I know. 
In an Oval shape. 

922
00:53:39,480 --> 00:53:42,480
I isn't it, but then then 
there's. 

923
00:53:42,520 --> 00:53:46,080
Like a yucky or Yum I'm. 
But I do, I love it, but I feel 

924
00:53:46,080 --> 00:53:49,320
like I can have like a milk 
arrow root at any time. 

925
00:53:49,440 --> 00:53:52,360
Do you dip it? 
Yeah, that, you know how like 

926
00:53:52,360 --> 00:53:56,120
when you put it in a cup of tea 
and there's the magic, but it's 

927
00:53:56,120 --> 00:53:58,920
the magic, like how long is too 
long? 

928
00:53:59,040 --> 00:54:01,240
Because you leave it in like a 
fraction too long and it'll just

929
00:54:01,240 --> 00:54:03,360
fall into your tea. 
It's a risky because it's very 

930
00:54:03,360 --> 00:54:04,760
risky. 
Maybe it's like, I like the 

931
00:54:04,760 --> 00:54:06,440
challenge. 
Maybe I like the challenge. 

932
00:54:06,720 --> 00:54:10,840
Yeah, so have a cup roses our 
roots with my green tea and then

933
00:54:10,880 --> 00:54:12,920
but then I'll just nibble on 
them through the day as well, 

934
00:54:12,920 --> 00:54:14,640
like. 
I feel like green tea. 

935
00:54:14,640 --> 00:54:17,880
Not even a tea. 
No, no, not into an English 

936
00:54:17,880 --> 00:54:19,280
breakfast. 
It's a normal tea. 

937
00:54:20,640 --> 00:54:25,480
And then I just also wanted to 
because when I was thinking 

938
00:54:25,480 --> 00:54:29,000
about it just then, I was like, 
the Milk Arrow route is in the 

939
00:54:29,000 --> 00:54:33,200
same part as like. 
And I never even know how to 

940
00:54:33,200 --> 00:54:35,600
pronounce these ones. 
This is the shredded wheat meal.

941
00:54:35,600 --> 00:54:39,440
Also love that too. 
But the Mari biscuit? 

942
00:54:40,440 --> 00:54:42,480
Oh, they're the same. 
Is the Mari changeable? 

943
00:54:43,040 --> 00:54:47,160
I would have said Mari, I think.
It's a Mari and then the other 

944
00:54:47,160 --> 00:54:50,480
one that you can't quite 
remember the name of or remember

945
00:54:50,480 --> 00:54:54,360
how to pronounce is the Is it 
the niece or is it the nice 

946
00:54:54,440 --> 00:54:58,760
biscuit? 
I have absolutely no idea what 

947
00:54:58,760 --> 00:55:01,120
you're talking about. 
You don't know the nice, the 

948
00:55:01,120 --> 00:55:03,320
nice, the nice biscuit. 
Oh, it's literally coming up. 

949
00:55:03,320 --> 00:55:06,480
Nice biscuit. 
I think it's pronounced. 

950
00:55:06,520 --> 00:55:07,480
Nice. 
Oh is that got the sugar 

951
00:55:07,480 --> 00:55:09,160
crystals on top? 
Yes. 

952
00:55:09,640 --> 00:55:14,600
OK, gotcha. 
I had no idea that wow, I'm a 

953
00:55:14,600 --> 00:55:17,240
surprise actually. 
That's that's your treat. 

954
00:55:17,240 --> 00:55:19,880
Biscuit Beck, The nice biscuit 
would be the treat. 

955
00:55:19,920 --> 00:55:24,680
Biscuit with sugar. 
Crystals on top but wow the 

956
00:55:24,680 --> 00:55:25,920
sugar is so. 
Shocking. 

957
00:55:26,600 --> 00:55:32,920
Wow, OK, Fast 4, Fast 4. 
Tell me then, why do you feel so

958
00:55:32,920 --> 00:55:34,800
shocked by that and what would 
be your favourite? 

959
00:55:34,800 --> 00:55:40,760
I just think of all the biscuits
out there to go with two 

960
00:55:40,760 --> 00:55:45,600
glorified pieces of. 
Bread in. 

961
00:55:45,600 --> 00:55:49,600
A green tea is surprising, but 
to each their own. 

962
00:55:49,600 --> 00:55:53,120
Their own I I want to talk to 
you about the Iced Vovo. 

963
00:55:53,760 --> 00:55:55,440
Oh. 
I don't. 

964
00:55:56,240 --> 00:55:57,880
It's not that that's my 
favourite biscuit. 

965
00:55:57,920 --> 00:56:02,880
There is something so 
quintessentially Australian and 

966
00:56:03,000 --> 00:56:07,200
the nostalgia I have for an iced
Vovo. 

967
00:56:07,360 --> 00:56:11,000
I even have iced Vovo earrings 
and one of my needle minders for

968
00:56:11,000 --> 00:56:15,360
needlepoint is an Iced Vovo that
someone made on Etsy. 

969
00:56:15,760 --> 00:56:18,920
And I think I am enamoured with 
the Iced Vovo. 

970
00:56:20,280 --> 00:56:23,320
It's really a unique biscuit to 
Australia. 

971
00:56:23,840 --> 00:56:28,720
I used to work in the Uki used 
to work in an in in in cutting 

972
00:56:28,720 --> 00:56:31,400
it. 
There was a antipodean shop. 

973
00:56:32,000 --> 00:56:37,240
So that's like it's sold. 
New Zealand treats, New Zealand 

974
00:56:37,240 --> 00:56:39,920
treats, South African treats and
Australian treats. 

975
00:56:39,920 --> 00:56:43,360
A lot of Vegemite and a lot of 
Vegemite, a lot of Tim Tams. 

976
00:56:43,880 --> 00:56:48,360
Oh yeah, a lot of Villies pies 
over here. 

977
00:56:48,520 --> 00:56:53,080
You don't have a Villies pies 
and then iced photos Yeah, a lot

978
00:56:53,080 --> 00:56:56,440
of I. 
Took a photo at AI was walking 

979
00:56:56,440 --> 00:57:01,520
past a gift shop and they had 
measuring spoons, you know, that

980
00:57:01,520 --> 00:57:04,480
come in a set as different ice 
fovos. 

981
00:57:04,720 --> 00:57:06,320
Ice fovos with the measuring 
spoons. 

982
00:57:06,320 --> 00:57:07,640
Yeah. 
And I took a photo. 

983
00:57:07,640 --> 00:57:09,240
I love an ice FOVO, I just 
think. 

984
00:57:09,240 --> 00:57:12,520
And also then like my grandma 
would always have served ice 

985
00:57:12,520 --> 00:57:14,120
Fovos. 
Always. 

986
00:57:14,120 --> 00:57:16,640
I've never never enjoyed an ice 
FOVO. 

987
00:57:16,640 --> 00:57:18,640
I don't know what it is, but. 
To see, that's the thing, I 

988
00:57:18,640 --> 00:57:21,640
don't necessarily want to eat 
it, but when I think about a 

989
00:57:21,640 --> 00:57:24,040
biscuit. 
That would be your favourite. 

990
00:57:24,120 --> 00:57:25,680
Biscuit because I'm not a big 
biscuit. 

991
00:57:25,960 --> 00:57:27,360
I'm not the biggest biscuit 
person. 

992
00:57:28,200 --> 00:57:34,400
I would prefer cake or like a 
brownie, something like a slice,

993
00:57:34,600 --> 00:57:37,480
but the if then then I would 
have to. 

994
00:57:37,560 --> 00:57:40,800
I do quite like a waggon wheel 
and I really like a homemade 

995
00:57:40,800 --> 00:57:43,520
waggon wheel. 
I think the combination of the 

996
00:57:43,520 --> 00:57:46,720
jam and the marshmallow fluff is
delightful. 

997
00:57:47,120 --> 00:57:50,040
Also nostalgic that I used to 
catch the bus home on Wednesdays

998
00:57:50,080 --> 00:57:52,640
begrudgingly. 
How dare my mother sent me on. 

999
00:57:54,040 --> 00:57:58,560
I'm not in her chauffeur service
and my nanny used to pick us up 

1000
00:57:58,560 --> 00:58:00,640
and she would open a packet of 
waggon wheels on a Wednesday 

1001
00:58:00,640 --> 00:58:05,120
afternoon, so that has a soft 
spot for me and I quite like a 

1002
00:58:05,120 --> 00:58:07,880
Monte Carlo. 
Oh yeah, but I want. 

1003
00:58:07,920 --> 00:58:11,760
To pull it apart, twist it and 
then like scrape off. 

1004
00:58:11,880 --> 00:58:14,480
The icing. 
My teeth in the middle there's 

1005
00:58:14,480 --> 00:58:15,120
a. 
System. 

1006
00:58:16,000 --> 00:58:18,200
Yeah, there is. 
Yeah, Monte Carlo's and 

1007
00:58:19,840 --> 00:58:22,160
Kingston's don't last long. 
Oh yeah, yeah. 

1008
00:58:22,160 --> 00:58:25,200
Kingston is also delightful. 
Yeah. 

1009
00:58:25,520 --> 00:58:30,040
And that's sort of like if I'm 
at an office or like the nursing

1010
00:58:30,480 --> 00:58:31,320
tea room. 
Oh yeah. 

1011
00:58:31,320 --> 00:58:32,840
They're usually one of those 
those the. 

1012
00:58:32,840 --> 00:58:35,200
Classic The classic creams from.
Artist. 

1013
00:58:35,200 --> 00:58:37,360
Yeah, yeah, yeah. 
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. 

1014
00:58:37,360 --> 00:58:40,800
So then onto the chocolate 
biscuits. 

1015
00:58:41,040 --> 00:58:43,080
Tim Tam's double coat. 
Love those. 

1016
00:58:43,080 --> 00:58:43,600
Yeah. 
You like. 

1017
00:58:43,600 --> 00:58:48,040
But if I was going to pick a 
packet of biscuits, it would be 

1018
00:58:48,680 --> 00:58:51,480
the TV snacks. 
They're not ones. 

1019
00:58:51,640 --> 00:58:55,880
How good are they TV? 
Snacks The TV snacks are so good

1020
00:58:55,880 --> 00:58:58,720
and I just introduced my 
children to them and they are 

1021
00:58:58,720 --> 00:59:01,080
still just as good as ever. 
TV snacks. 

1022
00:59:01,120 --> 00:59:02,440
I will agree with you on that 
one. 

1023
00:59:03,440 --> 00:59:08,080
The blue box or the yellow box? 
The sticks, not the stars. 

1024
00:59:08,920 --> 00:59:10,280
No, I don't want the stars, I 
want to stick. 

1025
00:59:10,640 --> 00:59:12,920
Yeah, the sticks so good. 
Yeah, they don't last long 

1026
00:59:12,960 --> 00:59:14,840
either. 
I usually buy two boxes. 

1027
00:59:14,840 --> 00:59:17,560
I have one on display and 1 
hidden so the kids only think 

1028
00:59:17,560 --> 00:59:19,920
there's one box. 
I saw. 

1029
00:59:20,000 --> 00:59:23,480
A. 
Hilarious video on TikTok about 

1030
00:59:23,480 --> 00:59:27,760
a mother made a video for her 
group family group chat that for

1031
00:59:27,800 --> 00:59:33,160
30 years, on the back of a shelf
in the fridge was a tin of 

1032
00:59:33,520 --> 00:59:35,760
yeast. 
You know, like live yeast. 

1033
00:59:36,480 --> 00:59:39,040
And that it's always sat there 
for 30 years and that she 

1034
00:59:39,040 --> 00:59:41,080
confessed. 
She brings it out in the video, 

1035
00:59:41,080 --> 00:59:45,600
opens it and it's got a secret 
can of Coke that she keeps in 

1036
00:59:45,600 --> 00:59:48,800
the back of the fridge and like,
no sodas allowed, no nothing. 

1037
00:59:49,280 --> 00:59:53,640
And she unveils, well, for 30 
years she has had her secret can

1038
00:59:53,640 --> 00:59:55,000
of coke. 
Oh my. 

1039
00:59:55,240 --> 00:59:57,280
God, yeah. 
Wow, That would be like the 

1040
00:59:57,280 --> 01:00:00,280
secret. 
Yeah, the secret box of all 

1041
01:00:00,280 --> 01:00:03,760
brand that like no one touches 
no kids touch the all brand. 

1042
01:00:03,760 --> 01:00:07,840
So I could probably hide 
something in there and then you 

1043
01:00:07,840 --> 01:00:09,280
think it might. 
Be all the secret. 

1044
01:00:09,280 --> 01:00:11,600
You might be like Oh my God, 
nobody know. 

1045
01:00:11,640 --> 01:00:16,200
About my lover boy. 
It's fine Beck, you can have the

1046
01:00:16,200 --> 01:00:19,320
all bread soap. 
Berry biscuits, the Mari's. 

1047
01:00:20,640 --> 01:00:23,280
Oh I'm so I'm so risky with my 
TV snacks now. 

1048
01:00:23,920 --> 01:00:26,240
Well, now I want to. 
I want you to time how long it 

1049
01:00:26,240 --> 01:00:29,800
takes for it to. 
Go the perfect beer just before 

1050
01:00:29,800 --> 01:00:31,240
so then you get. 
Floaties. 

1051
01:00:31,240 --> 01:00:33,080
No, sorry. 
That's where we're going to have

1052
01:00:33,080 --> 01:00:36,480
to agree to disagree on the old 
biscuit front. 

1053
01:00:36,480 --> 01:00:41,760
On that bombshell, we will love 
you. 

1054
01:00:41,760 --> 01:00:44,200
Just I just want to say for any 
New Zealand this is I hate the 

1055
01:00:44,200 --> 01:00:45,280
ginger nut. 
Hate it? 

1056
01:00:46,760 --> 01:00:52,760
Bottom ranked gross. 
We just alienate our whole New 

1057
01:00:52,760 --> 01:00:54,240
Zealand. 
You can. 

1058
01:00:54,280 --> 01:00:59,440
Cut it out. 
All right, on that night, don't 

1059
01:00:59,440 --> 01:01:01,160
have a biscuit back? 
Dip it in. 

1060
01:01:01,240 --> 01:01:04,880
Enjoy your soggy piece of toast.
That's Friday, I'm going to 

1061
01:01:04,880 --> 01:01:06,680
enjoy a nice noose biscuit. 
Yummy. 

1062
01:01:07,200 --> 01:01:09,880
All right, I'll I'll stick with 
the I'll go and check out the 

1063
01:01:09,880 --> 01:01:12,760
ice bovos. 
All right, everyone, so lovely 

1064
01:01:12,760 --> 01:01:17,040
as always to chew your ear with 
absolute nonsense. 

1065
01:01:17,040 --> 01:01:19,440
We will see you on the next 
episode of Nap Trapped. 

1066
01:01:19,440 --> 01:01:20,800
Bye. 
Bye.
