Question : How can I make longer morning sleeps?
« on: September 20, 2016, 15:16:02 pm »
Hi All
I have 5 months old baby boy.. and I do shh pat technique for 3 days.. Good news, it goes well at nights, first day he slept after 1 hour crying and yesterday night it was 20 min shorter.

My question is about day sleeps. Actually ı did not have any routine for daytime, Today I started to do some short daytime routine like listening a slow music, closing the curtains and playing lullabies.
After crying like 1 hour he slept but sleeping time was only 30 minutes. Today he had 2 day sleep and both of them was 30 minutes...
How can I make this duration longer? I wonder if the reason is routines, because I had night routines since first day so he sleeps easier and longer at nights, but i did not have any routine for mornings...

I am looking forward to read your advices.
Thank you

Hello, good job with the shush pat. I think certainly you need a daily routine. I will post shortly later with more info. Have you read the books or checked out the forum? Are you familiar with the EASY routine?

Could you post a few days of your easy routine so we could take a peek at it? 30 minutes are usually indicative of being overtired. Does he go to sleep independently or do you need to help him? Has he ever gone to sleep independently?
