Could you please make a video about sleep training. Thank you so much!

[@indiat.7242]

Omg I thought I did something wrong lol I’m so thankful I found your videos! My baby has no signs of autism so I was getting frustrated when that was the only thing I was finding! This was soooo HELPFUL! 😩💙💙 (Just to clarify I was not meaning that parents with children on the spectrum did anything wrong that was just the only thing coming up until I found this video I meant zero disrespect to any of you amazing parents or your children)

Glad you could relate to the video. Being 1 is a fun stage of life but a crazy one for sure.

Really great video! What sleep training technique did you use?

[@ActivelyFamily]

Babywise

[@achatwithdaron]

I really love your videos. I am definitely going to share with my wife and extended family, so they can practice some of these really helpful tips. Our 16 months old son is slapping when he doesn't gets his way or throwing things away such as his binky. What can we do to correct this? We do not hit our child, so we are uncertain of how this came about. -Daron (Jamaica)

[@ActivelyFamily]

Hi Daron! Thank you for watching and for sharing. We feel your pain -- our little guy did the same thing. Kids this age don't always have the words to express what they want and they don't understand reason. I wish there was a quick-fix solution, but our experience has been that it takes time and consistent teaching. For our little guy, we use a time-out method. When he does an undesirable behavior, we put him in time out, explain in simple terms why the behavior is wrong (i.e., "it is not nice to hit"), have him say sorry, and then have him do something to make amends (e.g., have him pick up the binky or give a hug to the person he hit). Hope this helps. All the best!

[@siddhantghatge4769]

Love the perspective part. My 14 month drives us absolutely nuts. Now I know that's cuz she must be very intelligent 😃 BTW, how old was Isaac when you filmed this?

[@ActivelyFamily]

When we filmed this video we had just “survived” the wild 1 year old phase. In the intro scene with he & I he had just turned 2. Most clips in this video were filmed when he was 12-18 months old. Thanks for your comment.

[@creationsbykaf3221]

Thank you for making this videos.. now i know i am not alone.. i thought something was wrong with my baby

[@ivymama3500]

For offering choice, what if my son and daughter has the opposite decisions. How should i make them to go for the same way?

[@ActivelyFamily]

That makes it tricky. The key with choice is making sure that the 2 choices offered are both acceptable and reasonable to you.

[@minimalishhh]

hey! did you end up finishing the sleep training video?

Hi. Thanks for remembering. It’s coming, I promise.

[@tammyrena1214]

Are you still gonna do a sleep training video?

[@rashabnayyat8970]

Hello, Thank you very much for this Video.my little one is 17 Months now. He learns very quickly and plays happily by himself. But my question is,he does not play with his toys and i can not let him sit to build a tower calmly for exampel, nevertheless i showed him many times how to make it wenn he was younger but he is not intressted of his toys.instead of it he takes a piece of the toy and run happily at home.Is it a problem?did i make something worng ?i hope you would ansewer my question. Thank you 🌸

[@ActivelyFamily]

Hi. You don’t need to be worried that your wok doesn’t play with his toys as they were intended. The fact that he plays by himself and is happily playing with whatever he finds is wonderful. At this stage, children’s play is very exploratory. You are doing great.

[@ActivelyFamily]

Smart baby. 😂

[@shahinabeegum.s.k242]

My baby is 13 years old showing very high level seperation anxiety. How to get rid of it and how u sleep trained your baby. Pls explain

[@ActivelyFamily]

Separation anxiety is hard. It is a part of every baby’s development. To help with the separation, I made an effort to give my baby to multiple people to hold. Give your baby to grandparents, friends, spouse, etc. to be held. You can stay near if that helps or even leave the room for short periods of time. Sometimes it helps to distract your baby with a toy or activity while you slip away. But eventually time is what solves the separation issue and your baby will get more comfortable seeing you leave and come back.

[@ActivelyFamily]

For sleep training I used the Babywise method. I am making a video on this very topic. Stay tuned. 😀

[@jenniglamyall]

my 19 month old is the cutest little terror, he terrorizes our dogs i am trying to teach him to be gentle.

[@ActivelyFamily]

Hi @Zen. We completely understand. You should see how Isaac can make his older sisters scatter. As far as teaching your son to be gentle around pets...one thing we did is bought a board book about dogs that had soft fur (fake fur) in its illustrations so that we could help our daughter practice “petting” gently.

How to train to sleep baby themself.

[@nissiadelusi]

Teaching Technique -Turn my baby into my helper -Offer choice -Positive reinforcement 5. Keep things in perspective -Seeing things from babies point of view -Model the appropriate behavior

Thank you so much for this video! I'm coming back with my testimony

Thanks

[@creationsbykaf3221]

My baby is about to be one.. But he is not able to do any of the things you showed around the house he just makes a mess out of everything. I dont know what to do.. Its difficult.. I feel like i am a horrible mother

[@ActivelyFamily]

Hi Kainat. Your baby is extremely lucky to have you as his mom. Please take note that when we filmed this video our guy was 1 year old but he was definitely over 12 months. And us making a video of his craziness was our way of getting through a difficult stage in his development.

Hi Tsion. We filmed this just after we "survived" our little guy being a 1 year old. So he just turned 2 when he is sitting with me in the intro. Most of the clips in the video are of him between 12 months and 18 months. Good luck with your wild one year old!

@@ActivelyFamily super rich, lol.

[@DarlingMissDarling]

Uh, it's definitely not an uncommonly large kitchen (or house for that matter) for a suburban home of a large family. But _frankly speaking_ , I must say it's impressive how you were able to communicate just how pitifully desperate for attention you are in so few words by saying that weird shit to a complete stranger, though. Congratulations, I guess? Lol God damn, some of ya'll just can't help but show off that you've got absolutely no home training.
