Baby Sleep Tips
Baby Sleep tips to help getting baby to sleep
Set a routine. Repeat it every night around the same time. This may involve giving your baby a bath, changing him, having a story together and then settling him to sleep.
Same Place. Always try to put your baby down to sleep in the same place. This way your baby will associate that place with sleep time.
Work out a simple bedtime routine lullaby or message such as ‘'night night sleep tight'’. Repeat this every night and your baby will also learn this is another cue to sleep.
Make sure the sleeping area is dimly lit as bright lights and activity usually keeps babies awake.
If your baby wakes up, check if he / she needs a change of nappy or is your baby feeling too cold or hot.
If your baby wakes after she has settled, stay in the bedroom to soothe her back to sleep.
Play soft lullaby music to help soothe him off to sleep.
Rocking and walking with baby in your arms often settles a crying baby but remember.
Gently patting your baby may calm her to sleep.
