Tips for this age
- •Naps are still very irregular—don't stress about perfect timing
- •Watch for tired cues (yawning, eye rubbing) rather than the clock
- •Begin establishing a simple bedtime routine to signal sleep time
- •Nighttime feedings are still necessary and normal at this age
Common challenges
- •Unpredictable nap lengths and timing
- •Day/night confusion is common—use bright light during day, dim light at night
- •Frequent night wakings for feeding
What changes next
Around 3-4 months, babies often begin to consolidate sleep and naps may become more predictable. Night wakings will gradually decrease as feeding needs evolve.
