0 – 16 Weeks: Do what works!
A newborn’s sleep cycles revolve around one thing: getting fed. Most newborns will eat every 1.5-3 hours. They should be fed on cue, day and night, to accommodate their rapid growth and help maintain the nursing mother’s milk supply. The length of time it takes them to eat, digest their food, and become hungry again determines how long they will sleep at a time. Research indicates that infants between 0 and 16 weeks do best when their sleep and feeding needs are met on demand rather than scheduled. *Source: healthychildren.org

How do I know if my baby is ready for Sleep Coaching?
If you do plan to sleep train, most doctors say you should wait until your baby is at least 4 months old.
Babies generally are ready to extend their natural sleep periods once they are out of the disorganized phase of sleep. This is when they don’t understand night versus day and they just sleep all the time. It usually lasts until they are around 6 to 8 weeks old.
After your baby starts to exhibit some regularity in their sleep patterns, parents and/or caregivers should start to put them down on a flat surface to allow them to get used to not being held. Full Gentle Sleep Coaching should not start until the infant is at least 4 months old.
