1. Go to bedroom even they're awake 2. Make it cool 3. Make it quiet 4. White noise helps 5. Swaddling blanket helps 6. Night light if wakes up 7. Avoid over tired baby (120mins max wake time)

[@Vannaysa]

My 5week old ist awake for minimum 2hr. No chance to get him to sleep earlier. You can rock him for half an hour in your arms and you will look in two wide awake eyes. If I want to eat, shower, nap,... me hubby needs to put him in a carrier. Otherwise he would only sleep like 5hr a day. 16-18hr a day my a**. That little guy employs two people...

[@LeddingGooo]

@@Vannaysa 🤣🤣🤣💙

[@jenniferiversen1912]

The Breakdown: 1. Understand sleep cycles, they may just be "light sleeping" instead of actually awake. Let them be until you know for sure they're up! 2. Keep the room cool. Babies like 65-70ish degrees. Dress them accordingly. It's better to be too cool than too hot 3. Make sure the room is dark. Not because of circadian rhythms (that's not until 3-5mo) but so that they aren't stimulated when they should be focused on sleep/falling asleep! 4. Use a consistent noise, like a sound machine, to prevent stimulation and the startle reflex so they can stay asleep. 5. Swaddle or use sleeping bags. She prefers arms down to prevent the startle reflex. Be sure to no over heat with the blanket as this is linked to SIDS. Make sure to get a good swaddle that they can't loosen or get out of. Otherwise use convenient swaddles like zip/velcro for safety. 6. Keep the environment boring (not stimulating) for middle of the night wakes. Dim lights, no screens/noises. Just change, feed, sleep. 7. Avoid an over tired baby. Cues of sleepiness- wiping eyes, yawning, zoning, looking away. The length of the nap typically determines how long they'll be awake. Typically a 3 hour nap means 2 hours of wakefulness (never more). A 30 minute nap may result in only 45 minutes of wakefulness. 8. Avoid habituating. This is when there is lots of movement, noise, and stimulation during the sleep (like being around lots of people, being held while sleeping and passed around, etc.) this keeps them from a full deep sleep. They'll be fussy after, so make sure their next nap is in a dark quiet space! 9. Using a pacifier: 6 weeks is the soonest you should start if breastfeeding. Sucking is soothing and calming. Stop the pacifier around 6 months as this is when you start sleep training and don't want them to depend on it. 8 months is about the time when they can put it back in their mouth and you don't want to get to that stage.

Nice! Right there with you. I go to bed at 7AM now.

[@Lifeszebarbie]

With my first, I would run to him and nurse at every noise or movement. He’s nearly 5 and sleep has always been tough; he still needs assistance. I have a 7 week old now and I only assist her if she obviously needs me. She’s already a much better sleeper! This video/information is so helpful and I wish I’d had it with my first.

[@maudebouthillette2613]

Wow! I was watching this video with my 3 week old sleeping on my chest and decided to try your tips! I swaddled her with her arms down (instead of using a Love to Dream), turned the air con to 22 degrees, turned the white noise machine on, made sure the room was dark enough & rock her to a drowsy state and before putting her down in her bassinet and she felt asleep immediately! You're a bloody legend, thanks for the tips!

I'm literally about to do EVERYTHING you just listed lol. I need to sleep and my baby has been having hard time. We are also struggling with breastfeeding which is throwing everything off too. Hopefully we can work on his sleep first, then maybe the breastfeeding will get easier cause he won't be so fussy from being overtired :))

My first is 3 weeks. It’s a beautiful learning experience. Just remember, you’re not alone!

[@marcelasdiaries5104]

I definitely find that white noise is most helpful for baby to sleep deeply. They come from a very very noisy environment inside our bodies, compared to outside which is way more quiet. Also I found my babies sleep quite well while nursing. After they fell asleep I would put them down for them to continue their naps. I never put them down awake, makes no sense since breastfeeding soothes them so much that they fall asleep. I didn’t pick up baby unless I knew for sure they were awake. As long as there is a very obvious difference between day and night, their little bodies adjust all on their own. My 4 month old (3rd baby) now sleeps from 7pm to 6 am, she adjusted by herself. All I did was nurse on demand, and followed her bio rhythm. I never wake my sleeping babies. A dark quiet room only works for us if it’s night outside. You don’t want to confuse their biorhythms if your goal is for them to learn to sleep at night. And yes I used a pacifier early on to stretch the night naps little by little.

[@rishis5575]

kzbin.info/door/tVx73oOHDDjhrcERdjdmIQ Use the sound waves for sleeping babys and all . It's really working

[@Am-wq4mp]

How early did you use a pacifier?

[@daphyneshine3222]

I personally think its okay for baby to sleep in a noisy environment. If its quiet, great. If its not, i would rather have an adaptable baby than a fussy baby. Being in public, restaurants, in the car, or having company is going to get a little (or a lot) noisy. If they're tired they will sleep. We fall asleep watching tv, at a movie theatre, in a car with music on and so can baby.

@@gali3109 is right. My baby is 3 weeks now and I am surprised at myself. I was so scared of how I would be as a mom, losing independence, lacking sleep. When my baby came things just fell in place, taking a day at a time. Of course you'll need some adjusting but it isn't as scary as we think. You will be great mama and congratulations.

[@yaminisharma4640]

So true

[@catie052]

I felt the same way and I'm not going to sugar coat it bc many people did that for me and I guess I got too comfortable with the idea. The first couple of weeks were not so bad for me either but weeks 4-6 have been bad to the point I cry daily and don't have any freedom and I need sleep. I also have an amazing husband that has been helping A TON! but it's hard on him too. BUT know this, it will pass AND pediatrician thinks she's suffering from silent reflux (she slept for only 7.5 hours in 24 hours! and looks pained every time she feeds). And breastfeeding did not come easy for me or many others around me. I tell you this bc I kept blaming myself thinking I or my baby are "broken" and why does it have to be my baby who is hurting? IF something like this happens to you, just know it's not you and you and your husband will get through it. One thing I can say for certain is that your baby is going to be your world (in a great way) We love our baby so much! It's crazy. Good luck to you and remember, everything you go through during pregnancy, delivery, recovery, and fourth trimester is temporary. and it's all totally worth it! You're going to do great!

We would watch other babies sleeping so peacefully in their cribs and couldn’t understand how they did it. Thank you so much for this video 👍🏻

Ha. I used a pacifier from week 1. It helps enormously. I want to know is why some babies fight sleep. My 3 week old will close her eyes, and show all signs of tiredness, and then BAM her eyes are wide open. Sometimes she can sit and stare for 40 minutes, sometimes she starts crying. I’ve put her down after 30 minutes in some cases, so there is no way she’s over tired, and yet… she just wants to stare into space. Also…. With clothing, does that guide also include things like swaddles or blankets? I’ve clearly been over dressing my baby…🥴 but in fairness I was only shown what do to do when bubs was first born and had to be dressed warmly…

Really awesome video. Great information, I didn't know about the light sleep Emma talks about. So that'll be really helpful. On the noise topic, it sounds like Emma's baby prefers quiet which is probably accurate. 5 days in, our baby appears to fall into the "prefers noise" camp, including loud conversation, shouting, dogs. She sleeps like a rock for 2-5 hours unless intentionally wake her up with touch. Our baby doesn't sleep in a quiet room very well though and wakes up after the 1st sleep cycle. So I'm just acknowledging that variance between different babies.

[@worlddreaminstitute4427]

It is worth to consider white noise. White and pink noise facilitating long, deep and healthy sleep are of particular importance for children. There is no absolute silence in the mother's womb. Various sounds reach the fetus - voices, music, and even the sound of flowing blood. Through the amniotic fluid and the specific environment in the mother's body, all sounds that reach the fetus appear as white noise. After giving birth, such a sound makes the baby feel safe and confident. This noise reminds the baby of the conditions in the mother's belly. In the case of newborns and infants, white noise will work not only during sleep. It is also worth using it to soothe and calm a crying baby.

Just want to say that the comment on no one being able to sleep in a noisey room is false as I can sleep better with music going. I can also sleep through many things; I have slept through aftershocks of an earthquake, road works outside my house, my husband playing his electric guitar (usually quite loud as it can be faintly heard outside) and I always fell asleep at family party's. I find it hard to fall alseep and stay asleep in complete silence. I am a new mother now, so I just have a sleep noise app on through the night. The app is recommended for tinnitus.

The dummy bit eye raiser because they suck air and will have block out air so maybe less easy to breathe. Love the sleeping information

[@tonibussell6828]

Is playing music in the room considered a loud room? I was thinking of having a calm lullaby or audio book in the room from day one?

[@kcegr]

Dont know, am latin and me (and allll my cousins) were/are able to sleep in a loud room….. the familia is loud, we got used to it; now I have a babygirl and she has been sleep 4 to 5 hours straight while everybody chat and was loud around her; basically, every kid is different

[@wendygreen8231]

Thanks for your video. How long can active sleep last? At what point do I know she's really awake and get her out? My baby cries out a lot and seems awake but has her eyes closed, should I be leaving her until her eyes open?

Lol, "keep it quiet" tell that to my toddler who loves her brother SO much that she wants to wake him up to play the second he falls asleep hahahahaha

[@chiquitaJuarez]

Thank you this really helped me. Definitely using a halo sleep swaddle/sack is a LIFESAVER.

[@bobdobbs4224]

My God I have been listening to a bunch of totally conflicting advice! My mom said I never did tummy time & was running by 6 months old because of a walking bouncing table, my friends say babies have to learn to sleep with lights, tv & noise, they all say to let him sleep in the swing or bouncer even though I say he slumps too much & it's bad for his posture. I'm forcing my husband to watch your videos with me now.

[@sophiagian.4475]

Thank you for the videos!!! Do you have any tips of putting babies in their bed?? I have a 7week year old and she loves sleeping on us!!

[@brrberrymerry]

You see my baby hates to lay or sleep in any temperature lower that 70°F and more often than not needs to be listening to something to sleep, much like her mom and dad, we use either white noise, rain or sleep stories/audiobooks to fall asleep. Maybe she got used to it in the womb but having a dead silent room is not something that anyone in the family can fall asleep to really. I was having trouble with her falling and staying asleep until I just stopped and observed what worked for her and now we're having much better nights. ♥

[@trenyispretty9154]

My 2 month old sleeps threw the night and wakes up around 9-10 am. It’s crazy. I usually hear moms say their babies wake up every 3-4 hours. But I guess I got super lucky & my baby don’t like to be swaddled anymore he actually pulls his arms out the swaddle so now just to keep him warm I swaddle his body just to keep him warm

[@HH-wv9fm]

I said that with my first 2. EVERY baby is sooooo different. My 3rd has allways slept bugger all, still does at nearly 6 months.

[@77pancake]

Hi Emma, should the dark room (low light) be apply only at night time or whenever they are sleeping? Thank you ❤

[@lisaa2104]

Thanks! What about having them sleep while walking outside? That is, can you bring them outside at all at the beginning?

[@tabythabeebe]

Each time that the baby wakes, should we be taking their swaddle off and put it back on when they start showing tired cues?

[@mathieuclement8011]

While you feed you mean? I would think the swaddle is a cue for baby that it is time to sleep and calm down, also they do need to stretch and move during the day, so I'd recommend only using the swaddle for calming and sleeping

[@fatstacks973]

Would you suggest using a red light to stimulate sleep ? Does it work for 2months old or is this not effective?

[@alimosammammotahari1074]

It was Very useful, thanks We have problem for feeding at night, the boy is asleep and doesn't open his eyes,

Thanks for sharing these tips ! When we can safely train babies to sleep more at night and less during the day ( I don’t know if we should , but I’ve read somewhere that it is good to make the room a bit brighter during the day to teach babies difference between day and night ) ? Thanks a lot in advance

Hello Ms.Hubbard I had a 34 week premie when is it safe to start trying to sleep train my baby. She is staying up till 2am no matter what I do and she won't let me put her down to sleep. Any tips would be much appreciated. She is now at 6 weeks out of the womb but she is staying up for hours at a time.

That’s a good question. My baby was born at 34 weeks and we having the same problem. She is now 7 weeks

Hi lovely! Should babies be restricted during the day when it comes to sleeping. My newborn sleeps a lot during the day and really well but of a night he is very fussy and not sleeping well Look forward to hearing back Kate

[@Twizzzums]

I will say, I grew up sleeping in “noisy rooms”. Fire trucks, ambulances, police cars, the TV was on all night, my brother would play his game boy, our dog would bark in the back porch, gunshots, mufflers, next door neighbors partying, arguing, fighting. I had actually grew up in that, and was so accustomed to it, when we got moved to a rural area I couldn’t sleep because it was so quiet. I remember crying at 13 because there wasn’t any noise at night. We managed to get me a fan and Xbox I played KZbin on all night but yeah. If you are a city family, let them get used to the natural noise of it. Don’t go out of your way to make things weirdly quiet. If it’s quiet we’re you will be staying, then you’re all set. 👍🏽

[@alanaalbarado2357]

My daughter in law just had her 4th baby. My newest g’daughter is 2 weeks old. When I went over to visit she had the baby “sleeping” in a baby carrier in the middle of the living room with my three other g’daughters, ages 12, 7, and 2, running, jumping, playing rough, screaming, and talking loud🙄🙆🏻‍♀️ I thought they were going to end up crashing into the baby😩 Anytime I try to suggest doing something different for the kids or the baby my daughter in law turns her nose up and doesn’t listen to me🤦🏻‍♀️ Any suggestions on how to help my new born granddaughter have a healthier, happier life around the constant chaos??

Think about when the baby was in the mother's womb. The noises were amplified and the fetus still slept. I think this is where the noisy environment statement comes from.

[@zzkittykat]

No, people say to get baby used to noisy environments so you dont need to tip toe around baby to avoid waking them up
