Babies: 0 - 3 Months

How does the wakeful end?

Will it just gradually get better? Will it abruptly stop? Will I have to do some type of sleep training?

Re: How does the wakeful end?

  • We didn't do anything. We just kept on with our lives, however exhausted, held him more, etc. and now I notice in the last week or so that his sleep has gotten much better.

    Then again, it's not perfect. He's still randomly waking up sometimes in the night. But his naps have improved tremendously.

    He's also still quite clingy, so I'm forcing myself to get through a bit of his whining when I put him on the floor to play by himself or he never will!

  • For us, it ended gradually.  After about 2 weeks of waking 2-4 times a night, he started sleeping from 10-4.  Gradually he slept longer until at 5 months, he's sleeping 8-5 or 6.  It was rough, but we just kept on and did more naps during the day when DS was napping.
