Putting Baby to Bed all Night

 
Author: Shannon Miller

I have never had any problem with any of my five children sleeping through the night. I started each child in my room until they seemed to sleep through most of the night. I then moved my children around the age of 9 to 10 months, into another close by room with a monitor. I made it a point to put them to bed at the same time every night. Even at nap time I tried to do it at the same time everyday. I know that sometimes things come up to where we arent home but if you take 2 weeks and stick with this routine your child will learn that this area of the house is for sleeping.

Now how to get them to sleep all night, I would first about 20 minutes before their set bedtime warm a bottle or breastfed my children to get their tummies full. Change their diapers make sure they are comfortable. Be sure and have a dim light on in their room away from their cribs or out in the hall next to their door. That way if they do wake up unexpectedly you wont have to turn the light on and get your baby wide awake and may not go back to sleep at all. When you lay your baby down to go to sleep have some soft music playing. Never hang around when you lay baby down this just makes baby not want to go to sleep. You can watch your baby from the door and thats okay.

Make sure that your baby cant see you. Give your child a chance I know that it will be hard the first few days to just leave your baby lying there but if you just walk away and let them get adjusted to the room and sleeping by their self. I promise you in two weeks they will be sleeping all night.

All five of my children ended up sleeping all by their selves. I never had to rock them to sleep or anything. As they got older I just said ok its time for bed. We would brush their teeth, drink a cup, and off to bed. They never had a problem going to bed without mommy. I now it can be hard on us parents to let our little ones grow up. Since my children were little and old enough to sleep by themselves they have woke up in happy moods and well slept. And guess what so has mommy.
