It's not too young for a schedule.... I mean my little one will be 11 weeks old on Tuesday and the daytime isn't a hammered out schedule because it just depends on what we're doing during the day. But like clockwork, she is tired and ready for bed for the night by 10pm. She usually wakes up around 6am. Sometimes 5:30, sometimes later... the biggest thing is to try to keep her up for longer stretches during the day. She doesn't ever take longer than a 3 hour nap during the day usually and I don't let her sleep in the dark. Usually during the day, she will sleep on the couch while I'm up watching tv or doing things around the house. At night, it's dark in our room and we don't talk loud if we're in there and we have the fan on. She very clearly knows her days from her nights. That was really long but it's most important that you do something to try to differentiate day from night and don't let her sleep all day. You've got this momma!☺️

Whatever works for you all. I can't give you an advice on sleep training. We co-sleep with my babies because I'm still nursing. My little boy is a 7 months old.

#momlifechats Moms,

#momlifechats Moms, Welcome to #momlifechats! We’re so excited to welcome Infant & Child Sleep Consultant Hailee Schollaardt (@nurturingsleepsolutions). Hailee has been a Certified Sleep Consultant for 3.5 years. She has 3 kids aged 4.5 years, 2.5 years and 6 months and knows all too well the difficulties of a non-sleeping baby. “My first baby was 11 months old before he slept his first 2 hour stretch (It was a wednesday) and since then I became obsessed with learning about sleep!” Hailee classifies herself as more of a gentle sleep coach and encourages parents to do what works best for their own family. “Always advocate for your family and your baby! After all, you know them best!” She has worked with many families and loves providing tools to help improve sleep for every family she meets. Healthy Sleep equals Happy Families! Hailee’s top 3 sleep tips: 1.) Create a baby cave! The body is cued by light levels and so darkness in the room environment is so important. We want that room to be pitch black if we can. This helps newborns feel at home (in the womb) and it help’s older babies produce sleep hormones. 2.) Use white noise. This is my “must have” in any sleep space. It helps newborns feel at home because it sounds like the womb and it helps older babies to cycle through sleep cycles. Use a constant sound such as static, heavy rainfall or a vacuum. Make sure it does not turn off after a certain interval as we want it to be playing the whole time to help those sleep cycles! 3.) Build strong routines. This is not the same as a schedule. A routine is just the steps you do before putting your baby down to sleep. Each step in that routine triggers the brain to release sleep hormones. Essentially, it acts as your baby’s clock telling the body what time it is… sleep time! Inconsistent sleep routines can lead to inconsistent sleep!
