Hi. My name is Lauren, and this is Mikaela. She just turned seven months. We started with actually sleeping about three weeks ago now.

And holy cow, our baby is sleeping through the night. It's amazing. We feel like a different family because of it. We kind of never really thought we were gonna do sleep training or, you know, actually consult someone about it until I started to feel like I was never going to sleep again in my life.

And by the time she was six and a half months, that's when we were really worried. My husband's shift was going to be changing to a night shift, and it's all on me. So we were we were desperate. And I had friends who just their babies were sleeping fine.

And I think some babies do, and then there's babies that don't. And that was her. I had tried to do my own research. I was joining groups, Facebook groups, looking into forums, using ChatGPT for sleep training, which they talk a lot about.

And Samantha's methods and just her knowledge on everything makes so much sense after learning it and doing it and applying it. I she's a different baby because of it, and I was actually doing a lot of things wrong, which in other words, people would say you're doing it right, and I learned I was doing it all wrong. And she's such a better baby because of it. She wakes up happy.

Her moods are better. She's ready to sleep when it's time for her to go to sleep. It's not a fight. It's not a battle.

I'm feel like a better mom. My husband feels like a better dad. If you're thinking about doing this, just do it. It's going to help your family so much, and we are so grateful for actually sleeping and for what it did for us.
