My 3.5 month old has never been able to fall asleep without a great deal of support, (bouncing, walking, shushing, nursing to sleep) and she cries and fights it every single time we try to put her to sleep, day or night. We’ve tried waiting for sleepy cues, adjusting routine, reducing supports, but are wondering if she’s…

He also used to be able to go down drowsy, fuss for a few minutes & fall asleep when i came back in once to pat his back for a little(he was also taking a paci at this…
Hi There, my 12 week old will pretty much exclusively take contact naps. He does great at night sleeping in the crib, but when I try to get him down for a nap (even if completely asleep), he wakes within 10 minutes of putting him down. I’ve tried everything: warming the bed, putting a shirt that smells like me as a sheet,…
My almost 9 month old has been waking up multiple times in the night. He was sleeping through the night very early on until about 5.5 months. Since then it’s gotten progressively worse. He also only naps for 30 min max, sometimes less (15). He likes to be rocked to sleep and sometimes transfers easily, but usually at 3 am,…

Nanit: Can you add a feature that automatically turns off nature sounds after a set amount of time? Ideally, parents could choose how long the sound stays on, and it would only shut off if no baby has been detected on camera during that time period.
I’m very confused about if is ideal or not to train my 3 months old to sleep while there’s noise day and night (I’ll like to know both cases)
I have a 7 week old and the last 2 weeks he seems to not go down easily and the longest sleep he gets is 30-40 mins in a crib. He can get longer stretches during contact naps but basically won’t sleep on his own long. Everything I read is he may be overtired but we try to get him to sleep right after a feed (which can take…
Hello, Dr Barnett I would like to consult regarding my 7 month-old daughter. Over the past night, she has been waking up every 1 to 1.5 hours crying. Each time, I pick her up, calm her, and she falls back asleep but this pattern repeats throughout the night. The only time she slept longer was when I brought her into my…
Hi! My son is 19 months and the last week he has been waking up 2-3 times a night. We try to wait it out a few minutes but it becomes extremely hysterical. But once you pick him up he’s fine. He will sleep right on you but nothing more with the crib. He was doing well before this for a pretty long time. He has more teeth…
