If you think it is, which classes did you buy? Currently in the 4 month sleep regression and willing to try literally anything.

we did the 3&4 Month class, not REALLY worth it in my opinion. You can get almost all of it from her blogs or Instagram honestly!

I think all of TCB’s teaching for newborn-5 months can be summed up as 1) when they wake in the night, give them 5-10 minutes to try to go back to sleep on their own, they try to comfort without feeding for a few minutes, then feed if clearly hungry. 2) Watch wake windows/sleepy cues to make sure baby isn’t over or under tired (this info is available on her Instagram). 3) Work towards putting your baby down at bedtime awake by slowly working your way from feeding or rocking to sleep, to comforting in the crib, to just being in the room, to finally putting them down and leaving. I did find it helpful when I bought it with my first, but it’s nothing groundbreaking!

@coloradobaby89,
I’ve never purchased anything. I followed TCB for a long time when my first was born and you get enough info from her stories and posts. I unfollowed when I found hey sleepy baby (also get enough info for free just from following) HSB took the pressure off sleep for me and love how she normalizes typical baby behavior

TCB is just a modified version of the Ferber method. You can google all of the info and find it for free. Precious Little Sleep is a good book for various sleep training methods and it’s way cheaper then TCB

Def not worth it. It’s a pretty package that is just Ferber method basically. Don’t need to pay whatever amount to have it in detail! Also sleep training doesn’t work for very sensitive babies

The newborn class was helpful when I was a FTM in understanding wake windows, sleepy cues, and baby sleep. You can find all that information online but it was nice to have it all in one place and someone talking about it.
Her sleep training class is just a modified version of Ferber and you can find that online and modify it to what works best for you.

Despite all the negativity, I love TCB. We have taken every class and have a 20 month old who hasn’t had a noticeable sleep regression since she was 5 months old. She was an EXTREMELY difficult newborn but I think the class made a huge difference. Baby #2 is easier but following TCB has been great for him too. Yes you can find it all online for free but the format is so convenient and easy to follow

I didn’t buy her course but with my first baby I read her blog and her insta posts and applied that with my son. He is a 4 year and still a great sleeper. Did the same with this baby and she’s been sleeping since through she turned 10 weeks! I didn’t sleep train, just created good sleep habits

Don’t pay for it. Find a friend who has or look it up on Insta or Google. Every single thing in the classes is online somewhere else too.
