Is your little one getting enough sleep during the day for their age?

There is a common misconception that too much day sleep will cause overnight wakes and early morning rises, but this is NOT TRUE!

Sleep promotes sleep and scientific research shows that consistent amounts of day sleep in fact set your little one up for a good night sleep.

🧡4-MONTH-OLD – NAP GUIDE🧡

The age that most mums fear!

Why?

Because at four months old, cat napping (short naps usually around 30-40mins) can start which can also be referred to as the four-month sleep regression.

BUT…. There is absolutely no need to panic!

Following an age-appropriate nap guide for your little one can help you through this time.

I love to follow a short-long-short routine for this age for the following reasons:

- It balances out sleep throughout the day to set your little one up for a good
night sleep.
- Helps to build sleep pressure to prevent your little one getting overtired.
- Prevents early morning wake ups.
- Helps your little one have a nice big lunch nap (usually we aim for 2 hours).
- Helps your little one maintain their wake time.

By staying consistent and finding a settling technique that suits your little one and your parenting style, you will have the perfect combination to work seamlessly through this bumpy period in your little one’s sleep journey.

Remember, each child is different, so what works for someone else’s little one may not work for you and that is OKAY!

We are here to help 😊

Some little ones at this age may still require a 4th nap each day if that catnapping is still happening and if you are unsure on how to stagger your little one’s naps across the day, please contact us today!

Reminder to take care of yourself mumma 🧡

ROUTINES!!

One of my most favourite part of working with babies and toddlers!

WHY??

Because to me, it makes life so much easier, prevents your little one from becoming overtired, helps you plan your days around naps to ensure your little one is getting good solid chunks of sleep AND most important of all - routines help us to notice when tweaks need to be made to our little ones sleep as they grow. 😉

Think a routine would be a benefit to your little one? Sick of playing the guessing game of when and how long your little one needs to sleep and studying your little one for tired signs and watching wake windows constantly??!!

Say no more! Let's get you started.
