Realistic views and help is needed for the thousands of families being deprived of sleep due to lack of knowledge in how to help their babies sleep. A recent programme on Channel 4, "Who Knows Best - Can't Sleep Kids.", gave us hope that we would be given answers and hints and tips how to self help. Unfortunately this programme focused on toddlers older than when sleep deprivation becomes a severe issue! Most working mums return to work when baby is just 6 months old, meaning sleep at that time is extremely vital. The programme aslo seemed to contradict the methods investigated and proved to be of very little help! We, the undersigned, would like to see a programme based on many different situations with more methods and ages covered! Alot of mums are breastfeeding, and find cutting out night feeds very difficult. This issue needs to be realistically represented to help parents feel more empowered!

My wife is struggling so much with the night feeds. The show was useless. Give us something real to help our babies sleep!

Finally someone said it. That show was a total letdown for me. I was exhausted back then and they just showed stuff that didnt apply to my 6 month old at all. We need real advice that actually works for working moms.
