Helpline: Hourly wakings through the night, food refusal and more

Babies and small children can be little mysteries wrapped up in chubby cheeks and winning smiles. When you need help solving your own little mystery – whether it’s challenges sleeping, feeding or behavioural issues, it can help to ask someone with experience and expertise. Helpline gives you the opportunity to speak to one of our experts. In this episode of Helpline, sleep consultant Jo Ryan tackles the following challenges:

• A seven-and-a-half-month-old waking hourly through the night
• A ten-month-old waking super early (before 5AM)
• A 22-month-old refusing to eat
• Concerns for a one-year-old breastfed baby starting daycare
• Three-year-old tantrums and the intersection of dropping naps
• Suggestions for play and activities with a 13-month-old
• A three-year-old sucking on random objects
