Early rising is one of the most common sleep complaints we hear from parents, and one of the most misunderstood. Many parents assume their little one is just wired that way, but in most cases there's a clear reason it's happening, and a fix. In this episode, Dr Fallon and Dr Laura (PhDs & Sleep Practitioners) walk you through the most common causes of early waking, the mistakes that can accidentally lock in that 5am start, and the practical steps you can take to shift things in the right direction.   Need support? ✅ Join our  Sombelle Paediatric Sleep Clinic Programs  and add on a coaching call with Dr Fallon for extra support! 🏢 Local to Melbourne?   Visit Dr Laura for an in-person appointment   at Victorian Children's Clinic, or   explore telehealth options.   Give us some love! ☕️ Love our work?  Buy us a coffee! 📲 Follow us on   instagram   |   Facebook  |   TikTok 💖 Tell your mates about us    Subscribe 🔽 ❤️ Listen on  Apple Podcasts  |  Spotify  |  Amazon Music 🎥 Watch this episode on  YouTube","meta_description":"If 5am wake-ups are a regular occurrence in your house, you are not alone, and more importantly, you are not stuck.
