What do you mommy’s do? Follow wake windows or look for sleepy cues to put baby down?

Question

Answer

Both? We aim for an hour and a half awake but if  she needs a nap before that we lay her down.

Answer

I agree I look at both. I use the Huckleberry app to help determine wake windows but obviously if my baby is yawning and rubbing her eyes and getting super cranky ahead of the Wake window then I adjust as needed.

Answer

Both, I watch wake windows and then sleepy cues.
A couple times a week he’s tired even though he hasn’t been up as long as usual and I’ll put him down “early.”

Answer

She’s usually yawning an hour after , but if I put her down then she won’t go to sleep because she’s not tired enough. 2 hours is our sweet spot ❤️

Answer

I have a 3 eye rub/yawn rule. Once I see them, I can put her right down and she's asleep in like 2 minutes.

Answer

50/50 Wake windows are a guide and can change often. Sleepy cues are good but not always reliable either because bored looks like sleepy. I try to use to judge.

Answer

Both. My son is like clockwork lol.

Answer

My LO is very good at giving me cues. 
He normally sleeps 45min after a bottle and before a bottle sometimes 1.5 if it's in the middle of a bottle if we are out or moving about etc.
