Thank you for clarifying the lights in daytime naps. I had a pediatrician tell me that the baby should sleep in the daytime in daylight so they can orient to daytime va nighttime. Now that I’m reading up on baby sleep best practices, to use my blackout curtains which will help her sleep longer.

😭😭 I wanted so badly for this video to be helpful. My baby is only 2 months old and fights naps/overnight sleep every single time I go to put her down. Even within her appropriate wake windows and when she finally does nap, it's 30 minutes at a time and then another two hours trying to get her back to sleep. 😭😭😭

That can be quite common at this age. They need to be perfectly ready for bed to settle easier. 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 be aiming on 4hrs approx. of day sleep across 3 naps and the awake time between naps would be around 2 hours. 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.

Any videos on why a 7 month old fights and screams for hours come bed time and also wakes a lot at night?

Hi Lori, I don't think we've got any videos specifically on that but if your LO is really fighting bedtime for a fair length of time and waking frequently overnight I would take a look at how much daytime sleep she's having and the structure of her naps, At 7 months we would recommend around 2.5hrs sleep across 2 naps, short in the morning, nice long one over the middle of the day and around 4hrs awake time before bed after the long nap. I'd also check whether she's relying on some input from you overnight or at bedtime to get to sleep - do you feed her / rock / pat etc to get her to sleep or resettle her through the night? If yes, you may need to start working toward her settling more independently. Our Program will be able to help you with all of this if you need www.littleones.co/products/ultimate-sleep-nutrition-program
