Any helpful hints or advice on adjusting baby’s sleep schedule?

Question

I’d like my 4 month old to go to bed before my husband and I do but I’m not quite sure how to go about that.
We do have a routine that we’ve been doing so I’m more curious on the best way to encourage sleeping earlier.
Do it gradually like in increments of 15 minutes or try jumping on in?
Does it make a difference if she just started her sleep regression?
Is it better if I wait until her regression is over?

Answer

I found increment is best either 15-30 mins. 
It's up to you if you do it during the regression or not.
But I found trying to stick to my normal routine as much as possible help me get through it, my daughter also became a much better sleeper after the regression and has naturally wanted to go to bed earlier.

Answer

I would say do it incrementally! 30 mins each night should do it...but I'm a FTM with a 6 week old so I don't even know what sleep is at the moment 😂

Answer

My little girl goes to bed at 6pm has since day 1.. Her last (20mins) nap is around 3-4pm as long as babies not napping after around 4-5pm you be able to aim for a 6-7pm bedtime. I would try straight away and see how baby reacts, if it doesn’t work try an 30mins to a hour earlier then you normally put baby to bed..
