RE: [ozmidwifery] Older Children's Sleep

I have been seeing Amber Laris in the city since I was a child and she is amazing. When we were still in Adelaide she would check Isabelle for me every now and then when I went it (as a babe) and only once felt the need to do an adjustment (soon after a nasty head accident). Isabelle loves her.

You know our first slept thru the night at 9weeks old and while always being extremely difficult to get to sleep once asleep slept a minimum of 12 hours. We thought we were great parents (even though we had not done anything to get her to sleep that long)! Then we had number two... My partner sa
