What to try
- Thinking about a bedtime routine might help your baby to relax and be ready to sleep.
- You could think about the 30 minutes or so before bedtime and how this can become a calmer time for your baby.
- You might have a cuddle and a story or sing some gentle songs.
- If you have the same routine each night, your baby will begin to recognise that this is the time to relax.
Good to know
Your baby’s sleep patterns may vary considerably from that of other babies their age, especially during the first year.
