That’s right, I said it. Your baby will never sleep straight through the night.
And neither will you, for that matter. In fact, pretty much anyone who isn’t heavily sedated before going to bed can expect to wake up multiple times in the night. This isn’t due to stress, caffeine, lack of exercise, or any other factors that can contribute to a lousy night’s sleep. It’s a normal, natural part of the human sleep cycle. We’re all familiar with the various stages of sleep from our own experience. You might not be able to put a name to them, but you’ve certainly felt the difference between waking from a light sleep and a deep one. Establish a WAKE-FEED-PLAY-SLEEP schedule. Newborns can only tolerate about 45 minutes of awake time, this includes their feeding. Start a bedtime and nap routine right from day one.
