Actually Sleeping

Exhausted but getting by: do families like ours really use Actually Sleeping?

They do. The parents in this video were getting by too — some on two to four hours a night for months, or for nearly a year. Looking back, they talk about what it was taking out of them and what shifted once everyone was sleeping: morning energy, their evenings back, and feeling like better parents and partners. With Actually Sleeping, you get a plan written by Dr. Sam and 1:1 support every day.

In their words: parents who shared this worry

“I was hopeless. I was tired. I was moody. I was crying. My husband had people asking him if he was okay at work.”

“So I haven’t slept in, like, almost a year.”

Watch

“I woke up with so much energy already, and now my husband and I can relax and know that he’s going to sleep.”

“Also, it’s been really great having our evenings back.”

“First night is the hardest. After that, she caught on really quick.”

“It has truly been life changing.”

Why families keep running on empty

Exhaustion sneaks up on you. Months of short nights make broken sleep feel ordinary, and making it through each day starts to feel like evidence that everything’s fine. Plenty of parents only realize how worn out they were once they’re sleeping again.

The parents in this video were getting by as well. What they describe now is more energy, evenings together, and greater patience with their kids.

How we help you reclaim your nights

Dr. Sam writes a plan for your baby, and bootcamp-style coaching before night one gets you fully ready, so there’s nothing left to figure out while you’re running on fumes. Daily 1:1 check-ins follow, and we coach naps until they’re solid. It isn’t cry it out, and it isn’t wait it out. The result is guaranteed in writing: “We guarantee that your baby will sleep 8–12 hours through the night within 14 days of consistent, correct implementation of your sleep plan.”

In this video, parents describe what exhaustion was costing them — at work, in their mood, in their patience and in time with their partner. One mom shares that colleagues were asking her husband whether he was okay. With Actually Sleeping, your plan is written for your baby and you’re coached before night one, so the heavy thinking is already done before you’re up in the night.
