When did you start working on a sleep schedule with your baby?

Question

My baby is 3 weeks old and we have 3 yr old twins also. Establishing s sleep schedule for #3 has been tough. She just went to sleep now at 9:25. Of course she naps all throughout the day but still I feel like I’m dropping the ball

Answer

3 weeks is too early to be worrying about a sleep schedule for your little one. It’s recommended to not start sleep training until about 5 or 6 months old. However, you can start establishing a routine for baby now! Like bath, bottle book, bed or some variation of that, to get baby used to the sleep cues (which will def help when you’re ready to sleep train!) 
Babies in the fourth trimester are still acclimating to life outside the womb so they will be sleeping a lot and waking a lot to feed. Try not to stress about it and enjoy your little cutie!

Answer

She’s 3 weeks old, you’re on her schedule. 
Of course she napped all day. she eats when she wants, sleeps when she wants. 
Just keep doing as you did before with tour others, lights out at bed time, bedtime routine, etc. she’ll get the gist of it eventually, but until then, you’re on her time/ schedule.

Answer

When mine was younger late bed times worked out best. As he got older we moved the bed time up slowly and now at 6 months he goes to bed at 6 and sleeps until 7 or 8
