In this episode, Emily and Jamie discuss the upcoming daylight saving time change, but not before sharing a humorous story about Eloise's park birthday party and an unexpected pi\xf1ata mishap.\xa0

They humorously reflect on the inconveniences of losing an hour of sleep. Both share their personal experiences and practical tips for preparing children for the time change. Jamie advises gradually shifting meal and nap times later leading up to the event, while Emily advocates for a day-of adjustment by extending wake-up times and gently pushing bedtime back. They acknowledge that the transition period after the time change might be challenging, regardless of preparation, but reassure parents that it will eventually resolve itself.\xa0

The hosts encourage listeners to stick to awake windows and sleep cycles while navigating the transition. The episode concludes with a reminder that everyone is in the same boat and encourages listeners to tag them on social media, sharing their early morning wake-up stories (@nurturebynaps).\xa0

In this week\u2019s Live Ask a NAPS Nurse, Jamie and Emily tackle the common challenge of kids being afraid to poop on the potty. Drawing from personal experiences, they normalize this fear, emphasizing that not all children learn to poop on the potty right away. They share insights on what's considered normal in terms of bowel movements and provide practical tips, including dietary suggestions and the use of over-the-counter laxatives if needed.\xa0
