How do you get your baby to sleep?
I’m a FTM with a a 2.5 month old. I can always get her to sleep, but I’m starting to worry about HOW I get her to sleep...
Please comment with your experience, as well as any suggestions you may have for me. Thank you!
Day: I can get her to sleep by rocking or nursing. She stays asleep when held, so I usually hold her/put her in a carrier. She wakes up immediately if I put her down not long after she’s fallen asleep. She wakes up within 15 minutes if I put her down after she’s been asleep for awhile. If I put her down sleepy, but awake she screams.
Night: I can get her to sleep by nursing. Sometimes she wakes up when I put her in the crib and stirs for a bit, but goes back to sleep. She wakes up 2-3 times per night to eat (usually her first stretch of sleep is 5-7 hours, 2nd stretch is 1-3 hours, and 3rd is only 1 hour or so).
