Zoe Brown on: The Rolling Milestone- A Twin Mom's Guide to Unswaddling & Safe Sleep

This week on Sense by Meg Faure, we check in with twin mom Zoe Brown and expert nurse Tasha Perreard as Zoe's boys hit the 6.5-month mark. This episode is a deep dive into the exciting and sometimes anxious transition when babies start rolling, which brings big changes to sleep routines and safety.

Key discussion points include:

• The Rolling Milestone: Zoe shares the joy and terror of her boys "rolling like little tumbleweeds." We discuss why this is a crucial developmental step and how to manage the transition out of swaddles and sleep positioners.
• Safe Sleep for Mobile Babies: Is it okay for your baby to sleep on their tummy? Meg and Tasha provide clear, reassuring advice on safe sleep once your baby can roll independently.
• Managing Different Sleepers: One twin sleeps through the night, but the other wakes frequently. We explore how sensory profiles impact sleep and offer practical solutions, like using a small weighted blanket for a more sensitive baby.
• Surviving "Dummy Runs": Tasha shares a game-changing tip for teaching your baby to find and replace their own dummy, helping to reduce night wakings.
• Daytime Routines & Sitting: Learn how to structure naps at this age and get creative tips for helping your baby practice sitting, like using a simple cardboard box for support.

This is a must-listen for any parent with a baby approaching the mobile stage, packed with expert advice and relatable moments.
