Munchkins mum, I know you're already booked in to Mitcham but for anyone else, I've just been to Northpark private hospital where they have a mother baby unit residential program. The nurses were brilliant there and didn't do anything you weren't comfortable with. It also depends on the baby's age what sort of settling techniques they use. Goodluck! Sleep school is a godsend,
Just an update from my experiences at Mitcham. They are great!
We no longer feed to sleep. DD is feeding every 4 hrs rather than every 1-2. She is self-settling, with varying degrees of success for 3 naps a day and self-settles after every feed overnight.*
The nurses there are fantastic. They look at how the babies sleep, try different things, wraps, music etc. All things can be readily duplicated at home.*
Yes, there is some grizzling, sometimes crying (minimal) but all wirked within your comfort zone. *If anyone is considering sleep school, consider Mitcham Private.*
