Reflux. Just hearing the word makes parents brace for months of sleepless nights, endless feedings, and a life spent holding your baby upright. It feels like exhaustion is just part of the package. But here's the thing: a lot of the conventional wisdom about reflux is actually making it harder for both you and your baby.

This week, I'm breaking down why reflux doesn't have to derail your baby's sleep, and surprisingly, how better sleep can actually reduce reflux symptoms. And spoiler alert: that "reflux meltdown" might actually be a baby who's overtired, not just uncomfortable.

Join me today as I show you why frequent night snacking creates a cycle of discomfort, how longer stretches of sleep help the digestive system rest, and why fussiness is often overtiredness, not just reflux.
