Are you a routine person?
Do you need to have your own time?
Do you worry when leaving the house incase baby looses it?
​
Being the type of person who loves routine and structure can be tricky with a new baby! There is no controlling baby, in fact, now baby controls you. You're used to having your own quiet time and now, you're lucky if you even get a shower on your own!

Hi! It's Kris here. Just jumping in to explain how I used my songs to help create a happy routine for my boys when they were babies.
Every time it was time to go to sleep I would sing the Have A Little Rest song and then whisper ‘it’s time to go to sleep’, whilst settling baby into bed. I did this everyday whenever baby looked like they were getting sleepy (rubbing eyes etc). Then after a few weeks, I noticed that sleeptime was roughly starting to happen at the same time each day. It was a natural progression...baby would get sleepy, I'd sing, baby would recognise the song and then baby would happily go to sleep.
