Developing a rhythm

How to Put a Baby to Sleep Earlier

Many babies easily get their days and nights confused, according to the La Leche League. Getting babies to bed earlier is necessary for many reasons, including resetting their internal clock, allowing parents an opportunity to get the sleep they need and to allow parents time with older siblings. While getting your baby to sleep earlier may take many nights, you should be able to set an earlier bedtime with a few simple changes to his routine.

Baby Sleep from A to Z

A through L

A is for appetite. Hungry newborns typically need to nurse every two to three hours. Two- to 3-month-olds will usually wake up two or three times during the night to be fed. By 6 months, a baby can sleep, without waking out of hunger, for eight hours, says Parents adviser Jodi A. Mindell, Ph.D., author of Sleeping Through the Night: How Infants, Toddlers, and Their Parents Can Get a Good Night’s Sleep.

If your baby is older than this and still waking more than once a night to nurse, he’s likely doing it out of habit. To break the association between nursing and sleep, feed him earlier in the evening and put him in his crib while he’s still awake. Once your baby learns how to doze off on his own at bedtime, he’ll be able to fall back to sleep in the middle of the night without your help.

Getting Baby to Sleep in the Crib

For starters, you have to set the scene by helping your baby get adjusted to the idea that the crib is a comforting place to be. Give her an opportunity to play in it during the day with a few of her favorite toys (while staying with her) so she comes to see the crib as a familiar, happy place.

You can also help your baby develop attachments to something other than Mom or Dad – i.e. a “lovey” or other safe transitional object. Keep the object close to him during your regular bedtime routine so that he comes to associate it with sleep. Many babies use a soft, infant-safe stuffed animal or small blanket. Some moms wear a small cloth inside their shirt for a few hours and then let the baby cuddle and smell that cloth with Mommy’s scent on it at bedtime.

When do Most Babies Start Sleeping Through the Night?

When do Most Babies Start Sleeping Through the Night?

Let’s start off by discussing what sleeping through the night means. When your baby starts sleeping through the night, she may not be sleeping all night or as long as you, as an adult, sleep. Babies do not have the same sleep patterns as adults and it takes them some time to start getting into a good sleep routine. Some parents expect their baby to adjust to a sleep routine that is similar to their own. However, babies generally need a lot more sleep than adults and tend to do their sleeping in spurts rather than all at one time. They will eventually sleep for longer stretches but don’t expect this to happen until your baby is at least two to three months old. Sleeping through the night is usually thought of as sleeping for a five hour stretch or longer. Some babies will start to do this sooner than others. Two to three months is around the earliest age that you can anticipate your baby sleeping through the night or sleeping for a stretch five hours or longer. (Some babies will sleep through the night earlier than this but this rarely happens.) Most babies will start sleeping through the night somewhere between three months and six months, but it is not unusual for a baby to continue waking at night until she is one year or older.

How much sleep do most newborns need?

Newborns spend most of their day sleeping. You can expect your newborn to sleep 16 hours (or even more) per day at first. Most newborns will only sleep for about three to four hours at a time before waking to eat. (*See Solving Nap Time Problems for chart on Average hours of daytime and nighttime sleep) Because a baby’s stomach is very small, it can only hold small amounts of breast milk or formula. This is why baby wakes frequently to eat. Once she gets a little older and her stomach can hold a little more, she will be able to nurse or bottle-feed less frequently, and wake less often because of hunger. Most pediatricians, however, don’t recommend letting your newborn sleep for more than four hours without feeding her. Once your baby gets a little older you can follow her cues for feeding. She may start to go up to five hours without waking to eat, but the time frame on when this happens will vary from baby to baby.
