My 5 m old has short naps, 30/40 minutes, mainly because of that silly dummy. She is always overtired because of this at bedtime. Guess I'll be stuck riding it out until she learns to replace it herself😢

I'm trying to ditch the dummy with our 5 month old. However, is the use of the dummy considered self settling or not?

They aren't self settling until they can replace the dummy themselves as the dummy is a parent assisted sleep aid until that happens. They will need you to replace the dummy until they are able to do it for themselves, at around 8-10 months. If you want to remove the dummy I would recommend settling your Little One right to sleep for the first couple of days, focus on getting them to sleep without the dummy first. Then work on the self settling. You could start by rocking your Little One, whilst patting and shhshhh at the same time. When drowsy continue patting and shhhshhh while you lay them in bed feet first, continue patting till asleep, or till drowsy then walk out, wait 6mins and repeat if not asleep.

Okay thank you for your help. She does well overnight but it's the naps we are struggling with without a dummy. She only sleeps for 30 mins without a dummy for naps after I rock her to sleep. I assume this will improve?

It’s totally understandable that he’s having a hard time adjusting since he's used to breastfeeding for comfort and hunger. This transition can take a bit of time, but don’t lose heart-you’re doing an amazing job. One thing to keep in mind is that some babies need a bit of practice before they’ll accept a bottle, especially when they’ve primarily been breastfed. Here are a few things that might help ease the transition: Try different bottles or nipples - Some babies are picky about the shape and flow, so experimenting with different brands might help him find one that feels more like mom’s breast. Offer the bottle in a calm environment - Sometimes a quieter or more relaxed setting can make a big difference when introducing the bottle. Make sure he's not too hungry or tired when trying it out. Let someone else offer the bottle - Babies often associate mom with breastfeeding, so having someone else (like you) offer the bottle might eventually help. Try snuggling him close as you bottle-feed, to mimic the comfort he feels when breastfeeding. Slow and gentle - Give it time and take a gentle approach. Even offering a small amount before breastfeeding, or when he's a little sleepy, can help him start associating the bottle with feeding.

Often it can be just because of the time you are settling them in bed. They need to be perfectly ready for bed to settle easier. Around 8 weeks they go through a sleep regression where their Newborn sleepiness is starting to wear off and they start to ‘wake up’. They may start resisting settling, not settling in their bed, night waking wanting to party, early waking and/or cat napping if their awake periods aren't long enough as they start needing more awake time between naps than they have previously been doing. This builds up enough sleep pressure to encourage them to sleep longer. We would recommend 4hrs 15mins - 4hrs 35mins approx. of day sleep across 3 naps and the awake time between naps would be around 1 hr 45/50mins. Make sure your little one is swaddled. Settling them in a dark room with the shhh noise playing will also really help with the settling and staying asleep.

I purchased the little ones programs for all ages. And I'm using it for my little girl who is 4 months old. The methods are not working, however. I am sticking pretty strictly to the schedule of feedings and naps and wake windows. However, she's still waking up throughout the night and the self-settling methods are not working. She screams louder and louder until we pick her back up and rock or feed her back to sleep. We are not able to put her down drowsy but awake without her screaming. The room is quiet and dark and we are following the same sleep routine every time. The only thing different about the bedtime sleep routine is that we add a bath right before.

Hi. Thanks for this. I’ve read that ditching the dummy at 3 months is best before they reach 4 months and it becomes a deep rooted sleep association. He is 14 weeks and we have ditched the dummy for the past two nights and he scream/cries for sometime 35 minutes whilst we rub his tummy in his cot. Happened 3 times last night. We pick him up and cuddle him after 20 mins and he Instantly falls asleep in our arms...but we are wary of rocking him to sleep in our arms as that is developing another addictive sleep association that will be hard to get out of. He is the same for day time naps unless he is in the sling. Some people say it can take up to a week before things get easier. Is this true ? Is 35 minutes too long to let him cry even if our hands are on his body comforting him the whole time?

Doing some research so in a few weeks time once her older sibling finsihes his exams/school we can hopefully give it a go when everyone can sleep in a little if absolutely need be. My preschooler is very stubborn so really not sure this will work without a lot of upset but I keep talking to her about how she is getting bigger and we need to find another way to go to sleep. Hoping a combination of the two will help.

Hi Nikki, my 3.5 month old girl has been a cat napper since 3 weeks old. I’ve given myself anxiety thinking there is something wrong with her. The only way we could get her to sleep longer than 30 minutes is to hold her, so for 2 naps a day, we held her for 2 hours each. In your experience, will she ever learn to link her sleep cycles? She was ok at night but now she is in the 4 month regression, things are getting hard 😢

She will wake and rely on you to get her back to sleep. When working on self settling we usually say to initially work on just the start of naps and bedtimes until they've got that nailed and are self settling 80-90% of the time, and while that's happening continue to resettle during naps and overnight as you were previously... Once they've got the hang of the start of sleeps move onto working on the resettles. When you are settling, try rocking till drowsy and make sure you pat their bottom/side and shush (if you don't have the shhh track) loudly at the same time. Once drowsy continue patting and shushing whilst laying them in their bed feet first, continue patting until asleep. The first goal is getting them to fall asleep in their own bed first. Once you have done that for a day or two start gradually reducing the patting so you’re just patting them in bed until drowsy, stop patting and then just shhhhhh till asleep. Next time pat and shhh till drowsy then walk out, wait 6 mins and if they are 'crying up' go in and repeat. If at any time it gets to 30 mins past nap time then do whatever you can to get them to sleep and try again next nap. Persistence and consistency is key. Head to their room 10 mins before nap time to wind down and get ready for bed, start settling 5 mins before, this is when they are perfectly ready for bed. Settling them in a dark room with the shhh noise playing will also really help with the settling and staying asleep. Aim on 2 hours + 10 mins of awake time between naps and 2 hours before bed.

Going through the 4 month regression and a strong feed to sleep association. Nothing else works really. Waking 4-5x a night. What I’m finding hard is that when baby wakes at night and I’m trying to reduce the feed to drowsy, is that time frame is so short. He literally suckles a few times and is drowsy/falling asleep. So it’s such a short space of time that I’m struggling to achieve being put into the bassinet drowsy, as he is often asleep already?! What do you think I should try?

Our daughter is a year and 8 months old. She STRUGGLES with sleep...bad and unfortunately, she gets it honest. Even as a baby myself, I struggled sleeping hardly at all and suffered bad night terrors as a toddler, something she began showing symptoms of at around 7 months old. Even now, at 30, I rarely sleep more than 4 hours and suffer horrific nightmares and she seems to be walking down that same path. She wakes consistently every hour or 2 either screaming and crying or crying and only stops if one of us soothes her back to sleep with back rubs, hair brushies, "shhhh"'s, or physically picking her up and waking her from sleep so she doesn't bop her head on the crib rails when squirming erratically (usually once shes able to open and adjust her eyes, she calms down rather quickly). Alot of times getting her back to sleep takes an additional 30 mins-an hour, which exacerbates the problem further. She only sleeps between 1 and 2 hours a day for naps and her sleep quality is deteriorating fast. I don't want her to be in a position like me, whos typing this at 3:50am. And I'm worried shes experiencing nightmares now as a result of her sleep quality. We've tried all the various different types of solutions that typically work for children and have tried them each during 3-6 month trial periods, but her being 2 months preemie, under the 1 percentile, and sharing unfortunate genetics with me seems to be amplifying the issues and symptoms. She never eats junk food since we dont really buy it in our home, she does the bedtime/naptime routine daily, shes always dry before bed and we give her a warm bottle about an hour prior to sleep since milk increases the production of melatonin in our bodies (as do bananas, peanut butter, and a few other foods she regularly enjoys), and we even make sure her nose is cleared out and sprayed before bed to ensure zero issues breathing (her pedia's recommendation), she has a soft lovey to snuggle with to sooth her to sleep, zero lights except the dim stars on her ceiling, soft and monotone sounds from a shusher that lasts 20 mins and her "lullaby" that plays at night (just a non-melodic soft almost music hum vs actual music thats used as white noise), and her door is always shut so the dogs dont bother her with their click clacking nails on the hardwood. The temp is set comfortably at a constant temperature for a baby/toddler as well to prevent overheating or getting cold. We even tried smaller doses of actual baby melatonin at her pedia's recommendation and it hardly changed anything, so we decided to stop and use milk instead since the outcome was the same without the risks involved. We even made sure she wasnt experiencing constipation or impaction, disorders known to affect sleep in babies and children, and have ruled that out recently as well. Her brain scans show no abnormalities and despite her eye issue (one pupil doesnt constrict) and her lack of a startle reflex (things her doctors said couldnt be verified as causes until shes much older, but likely have nothing to do with her sleep quality), the only other things i can think of are her being born extremely preemature and spending a week shy of 2 months in NICU, her being around 6 months behind physically and developmentally, or her just having some genetic issue causing the sleep problems, I'm not exactly sure what else to think except nightmares and have run out of options to try and resolve the problem. Im at my witts end and being pregnant again, due in June, I am horrified the new baby will make the issue 10x's worse as she faces the new change and as the new baby cries and wakes her or as she cries and wakes the new baby. I need help and im running out of options and as of now, time.

This could be linked to the 8 month regression. The 8 month regression is all mostly to do with their physical development, so it isn't just when they are 8 months, this is usually around when it starts. But any developments that are new or that they are practicing can cause a regression in their sleep, they can resist settling and self settling can go out the window. Keeping your daytime routine and your sleep expectations consistent is the best way through this tricky phase. Try and use voice/touch to soothe to help you settle if needed to avoid introducing new associations. We would be aiming on 2.5 hours approx. of day sleep across 2 naps. Aim on 2 hours + 30 mins of awake time between naps and 4 hours + 10 mins hours before bed. Settling them in a dark room with white noise playing will also really help with the settling and staying asleep.

My little one slept through the night at 6 weeks old. He had sickness at 6 months where I slept with him in the rocker up right three nights so that he could breathe. He slowly stopped sleeping through the night after that; he would wake two nights a week, then four nights a week, then pretty much every night. He rarely sleeps through the night now. He wakes every 6 hours and seems hungry. He is quite big though, he is 10 months old and already wearing 18 month clothing and is quite chubby. He is breastfed. We do 3 solid meals a day with a substantial protein and veggies at two meals and old fashioned oats and berries for the other meal. I home make all his food. Two naps a day. Longer morning nap and shorter afternoon.

If he is needing you to get him back to sleep, he will wake relying on this. You could try gradually reducing those overnight feeds by 30mls every 2-3 days. So it is a very gradual decrease and he will start to make up those calories during the day.

I’ve heard from a pediatrician that we need to put her in her crib and just talk to her until she falls asleep and if she starts to cry, we just have to talk 🤷🏻‍♀️ or if she’s crying for 10 minutes we can calm her down and star over again.

I feel like theres so many reasons why my 3 year old is suddenly waking up at night. Shes just started nursery without her older sister and constantly says she misses everyone. Her sleep environment has slightly changed at home (room has changed slightly) she naps 2.5 hours a day, sometimes wakes up 3-3.30. She seems to be becoming more aware of everything and as a result is scared more often. My first go to is to reduce or stop the day time naps. But im worried about how to help her with the changes of school, her room and the normal developmental leap she's going trough. How am I meant to help her feel less sad when she misses me or her sister, or make her feel less scared?? Its all so much to tackle, all at the same time 😢

We would recommend 4hrs 15mins - 4hrs 35mins approx. of day sleep across 3 naps and the awake time between naps would be around 1 hr 45/50mins. Having the shhh noise playing can really help calm them for sleep. Make sure your little one is swaddled.

I usually feed her lying down at night to make it as easy and comfortable as possible and then lift her to her babynest. Do you have any suggestions on how to burp her at night? If I wake her up after feeding to burp I’m afraid she’ll want to eat again.. and waking her is nearly impossible, it would require me to go up and into a light cold room or something similar.

Often it isn't as essential to wind overnight. They are so sleepy and don't take in as much wind as daytime feeding. Try just lifting her up onto your shoulder for a few mins and if nothing comes up, place back down x

Thank you so much. I really enjoyed this podcast. I enjoyed the topic of crying so much and you are absolutely right. I’m learning this with my 14 week old. He just put himself to sleep for the morning nap after 2 minutes of protest. We are already passed the 45 minute mark so fingers crossed 😅! I’m hoping this will make his catnaps longer. Thank you for all of your support and your videos are great. ❤❤❤
