Hi! I wanted to ask for some advice about my 4-month-old baby’s sleep. I’m trying to help her learn how to sleep longer stretches at night and start self-soothing instead of needing me to do it for her every time she wakes up. She sleeps in her crib right next to me. Do you have any tips, methods, or routines you recommend…
Hi! We were very spoiled with our oldest (who is now 3.5). She slept through the night until 8 am at like 18 months. However, we are doing all the same things with our youngest who is 18 months now, and waking up at 6 am and sometimes even as early as 5/5:30. We wait 5-10, sometimes even 15-20 minutes when she wakes up at…
It has been one BIG sleep regression since 4 months. She slept for 12 hours straight with zero waking from 2-4 months and I thought I hit the jackpot. Now, at 9 months, she’s waking as much if not more than the newborn phase. Every month it gets worse with no good stretches. It’s like one sleep regression has rolled into…

My 22 month old son is still breastfeeding before sleeping and when my husband puts him to bed he holds him until he falls asleep. We tried sleep training since he was born and it didn't work out. He wouldn't stop screaming! It was just too much for us to continue. We were at it for about 3 months. He wouldn't let up and i…
Hi Dr. Barnett, I’d like to discuss my baby’s sleep, as we’ve been experiencing consistent night wakings over the past few weeks. Baby details: Age: 8 months Weight: ~11 kg Formula-fed Sleep history: Until about a month ago, he was sleeping through the night consistently. He was previously on 3 naps per day with wake…
My 8 month old wakes up in the middle of the night. I wait to go in but when I do she needs to be held to go back to sleep. I try multiple times to lather back in her crib but she wakes up every time. When we put her to bed she is completely wake and falls asleep on her own. But most nights she can’t get herself back to…
Hello Dr. B., My son is 9months old and is getting 3 teeth in right now. He is also congested (getting better and getting tubes after christmas). He used to be able to fall back asleep on his own, but since being sick he has woken up fully and won't go back to sleep on own without a bottle or us touching him. His routine…
Hello my daughter is 16 months and we are lacking a consistent bedtime routine. She is still used to drinking milk from a bottle to fall asleep. I know we need to break this cycle because of her age and teeth concern. She also doesn’t get sleepy at the same time each night. We usually wait for her cue to be sleepy. My main…
