Thanks for this! Assuming a baby under 3 months is considered newborn? Also are you able to give us tips to link sleep cycles for babies 3+ months? I’m petrified of the 4 months sleep regression. My bubs is 15 weeks old and I don’t know how to link his sleep cycles
My baby is now 3 months old...I wish I had seen this sooner 😭😭😭. Every single point is 100% correct. I wish they would teach u this at the hospital before u take baby home. Thank you for the information
Emma Hubbard my first born was a breeze For the first month so my question is important for my second born son. How long does a baby breastfeed for?
I have 1yo daughter .. she is allways at 19:00-20:00 in the Bett . But , she wakes up every night about 1:00 or 2:00 and she is restless and won't sleep and I have to hold her in my hands about half hour or one hour . Sometimes few times in the night and I am very tired .. where ist my mistake ? She is not hungry , because I give to her every time a milk , she eat that but ist not better . Whats wrong ? She needs to go so early in Bett because she wakes up every day at 06:00 or 07:00 . She needs to go in Kindergarten . And sleep just one time , at 12:00 .
In my neuroscience class we were taught that white noise isn't good for the brain, especially at night. During the day it may be ok but definitely not at night because
the brain needs quiet to clear it's clutter and white noise blocks this process.
First time mama here with a 2 week old, and I just wanted to say that all of you are doing great and the fact that you’re watching this video proves that! Try everything you can until something works, and if that changes, just try something else until that works too!
PLEASE remember to take care of YOUR needs as often as possible. If there are dishes in the sink but you can sneak in a 20 minute nap while your baby sleeps, please do that! Take a hot shower, massage your feet, lay in silence, listen to music… come back to a place of neutrality and peace within yourself. We will never get these moments back and the next chapters will always have their adjustments.
Trust yourself and great advice like this video. You are doing great!!
That showering comment is so underrated
Congrats! 👶🏻👣🍼 I also have a new baby, she's 3.5 weeks old
@@MandiMomOf8Channel is ur baby sleeping thru the night already?
I been struggling 😭 with my two week old and my postpartum can’t take it 😭 but me and his dad has been trying but it will all get better ❤️❤️❤️
Lol I stay trynna do chores instead of getting sleep😂😂😂 I needa heal from the c section
My wife just asked me to search for this topic and this is just posted. How timely. I think we're making just about all of the new parent mistakes mentioned in this video. 🙃
Thanks for sharing these tips. Will definitely try them with my new born.
- First time mum of a 3 week old struggling to sleep
First time dad here…Such a great video! For me, I dont use a white noise or anything while baby sleeps so I can hear baby breathing. Granted, I am always quiet when baby sleeps. This may not be the case for everyone. But great tips!!!
Sleep was the most challenging part of becoming a new parent :)
Yes 😢
I wanna cry every night .
Great video indeed. I watched this yesterday and my baby slept better.
Thank you
Thanks for the video, unfortunately some of the these points including the ‘tiredness’ phase’ or tiredness signs stuff doesn’t really resolve a lot of the issues we’re facing. They also seem to conflict with advice around babies hungry signs. We recognise yawns, playing with ears and rubbing eyes etc as signs of tiredness, that and being super quiet and disinterested, but as soon as we put him down and within 2-5 mins later he’s fussy again. We let him wriggle around in the hope he’ll drop off to sleep, but he gets himself into such a tizzy. The cycle repeats
Think the lighting with a dark room and white noise is underrated. Made a huge difference to help baby regulate a good schedule.
Im literally watching this at 2am in the morning after our 5 day old first time child has kept us up every night since last week. I have been making all of these mistakes, but got to try your solutions on her this morning and they instantly worked. I really can't thank you enough, from the bottom of my heart.
LOL been struggling these past couple weeks with my baby’s sleepingg pattern. This video is what i needed!! 😂🧡
This is the best baby content channel on youtube! Thanks for your Work! Much love, lenny
I've watched a few of these videos now - and I'm hooked.
My 1st child I did so many of these mistakes. She was horrible at sleeping and I was extremely sleep deprived. My 2nd baby I have avoided almost all of these. And he is 100% better of a sleeper! These are life saving tips.
Thanks for taking the time to make this video. My only observation is I kept hearing you say to put them down to sleep. What about the ones that refused to be put down to sleep when in fact you know they are tired?
Going to give these a shot! First baby over here. Currently, just over 1 month old.
I was definitely guilty of these mistakes and I didn’t realize until my baby was a few months old 🤦🏻♀️
Your channel is saving my life quite literally lol thank you so much for making these videos I’m a new mom and my baby is 2 weeks and it has been so hard! Thank you
hi emma, have always found your videos so helpful. please can you do a video for toddler sleep. my lo wakes up every two hours asking to feed throughout the night. Many thanks xx
This is insightfully important for new fathers and mothers including me. I am very thankful for the free service provided here.
It's my pleasure!
I am so glad I've watch your video it help me a lot to settle my 6 weeks old baby. I was having difficulties to sleep most of the time. If he sleeps, he wakes most of the time.
I LOVE how spot on your video is. I had to figure all of this out WITHOUT guidance, or a heads up lol but I made it through! This is very helpful to new mommy’s
Thank you so much!
Same here! For me, it was mommy instincts ☺️
Thank you for that one. Now everything clicked and it makes perfect sense, I clearly know we let our daughter enter the overtiredness state. We'll be more watchful from now on, thanks to this knowledge.
Learning about active sleep versus deep sleep changed how well my son slept. I used to run to hold him as soon as he made any noise at all. Now I give it a minute to see if he's actually waking up. He is a much happier baby lately.
That's amazing! They do become so much happier when we stop accidentally waking them up.😁
i wish i found you earlier but we figured out a lot of this through trial and error and reading over the last few months.
Thanks for sharing!
Off topic… your monstera looks like it needs more light and less water. Try moving her to a slightly sunnier spot (nothing too direct) and waiting a bit longer between waterings. 😊
And probably a repotting into a slightly bigger pot with fresh compost. lol plant babies!
Ok, so what is up with you posting videos perfectly relevant to what I need to see every week?! Sitting, walking, sleeping, etc. Alway clutch with the perfectly timed videos haha.
😂 So glad you're finding the videos helpful!
Highly appreciated , such an informative messages,, thank you.
Amazing advice, thanks. I'll try it from today.
Great video thank you! Straight forward, to the point and practical steps that are easy to implement. Thanks for helping ease our new parent minds!
It's my pleasure! 😁
Honestly so so helpful 😅
Especially the white noise machine tip😭
Thank you for this. My baby os 3 months old and has erratic sleeping patterns. Sometimes he sleepa at 2am 😪🥺 this is really helpful. God bless.
Thank you so much for the new video, always look forward to you sharing your knowledge and help, I learn so much!
Keep up the fabulous work and sharing your knowledge!
💕 that's so nice of you. So glad these videos are helping!
This is ALL so ACCURATE! Unfortunately I had to learn the hard way 😅 my baby is now 5 weeks and I had to learn to not do all these things in order to get her to sleep 2-3 hours through the night without staying up for 4 hours at a time crying and waking herself up. Definitely take this advice
Congratulations!
I have a 5 week old too
Love this channel! Always upload right when we’re actually going through each events!
I have picked few mistakes I make. Thanks for helping me correct them
Thank you! That was very useful!!
Love your PDF! My little Eevee(evelynn) is 7 weeks old and it's peace of mind to know she's on track. I expected to much at the 1 month mark. Your videos have helped and taught me so much. So much anecdotal advice I've been given was wrong. My baby fusses less and smiles more. ^_^
Congratulations on the arrival of Eevee! It's so nice to hear that she is a happy little bub- you are doing a great job. Enjoy the smiles - they are the best 💕
Where can i get the pdf one
@@EmmaHubbard Where can I get the pdf please?
This was very good and it’s still true even after 4 months. My baby still has her sleepy cues and as soon as I see her rubbing her eyes I start preparing her for bed.
So pleased you liked this video. Also great that you have been able to pick up on your little ones' sleepy cues!
Same here! It is amazing how fast they fall sleep if you are aware of that signs and how difficult is to soothe them if you don’t ☺️
Woohoo! This video just made me feel so confident! I finally started to ignore all the advice I was getting from family and friends about helping babies sleep & just went with my instincts/what I thought my baby boy wanted to do and it worked! Little did I know I was doing everything you mentioned in this video! :P (but only after he hit 3 months lol)
Thank you for this advice! First time mom here, my kiddo is about 5 weeks!
Really helpful,I am surprised that they work, please keep up the good guids they are helpful.
This! Thank you! I thought I was crazy because I hear other moms talk about a 7/8pm bedtime and my son won't go to bed until 11/11:30pm, then he gives me a 4.5-5 hour stretch! So happy to hear this is normal.
Hi @Danielle G yep a late bedtime is very normal! So great he is having a long stretch at night - it makes the late bedtimes tolerable. Good news is the late bedtime will start to become earlier over the next few months.
Same! I can sometimes get her to sleep around 10 pm, but she likes the 11 pm sleep time, which is hard when I have to wake up for work at 5:30 am!
@@jenniferreynolds1537 It's so hard! I did follow my son's lead and he naturally moved up his bedtime as he got older. He now goes to bed at 8pm at 9.5 months.
Wow very helpful. Thank you😊
Thank you so much for this, very informative
Hello Emma!
Such great information thank you so much 🙂
Do you have a recommendation for how long we should wait when baby starts fussing and crying before we pick them up if after a while they are not going back to sleep?
Your video is very helpful. God bless you
Thx emma for ur detailed
Videos...
Followed your advice, I helped my baby go to sleep whenever he looks tired during the day, however, I got different result.. he had shallow sleep during the night.. the past few days he had a very restful sleep except on that day..
Seriously this is exactly the list i was discussing with my friend and then my husband of what i did not do with my first daughter and this time idk i think all this experience has helped me also being a bit busy with the toddler now has given my baby more time to rest without me interrupting.
Having a routine with my toddler has helped so much.
I think i learned everything here so late but now i have been doing Montessori i for the benefit of implementing it from the beginning
I guess I'm doing something right. My 15 week old has been sleeping through the night, for the most part. We get ready and are in bed around 10:30. The earliest he wakes is 6 but often doesn't wake until 7 or 8. He has very clear sleep cues and he goes for naps in his crib, in close to the same environment as at night. It's very dark and we have an air purifier that makes great white noise. I got very lucky, he's such a good sleeper!
Do you have to wake up your baby during the night to feed him/her ?
@@larissatorres8624 I let him sleep. He eats right before we go to sleep and then when he wakes up. Today he woke up at 6:30. He's a super happy baby so a lot of the time he'll let out a cute little scream like I'm ready for food now Mom! He eats every 2.5 - 3 hours during the day. When he was a newborn he would wake up every few hours but it got longer and longer as he got older. I double checked with the pediatrician at his last appointment and he said as long as he's gaining weight, let him sleep. 😀
I was figuring the same thing when my son was about that age and sleeping about 9-10 hours straight. (Score! Good sleeper!) Lately I've hit the 8-9 month regression. Oh boy! I hope things went better for you.
Really thankful for ur video. My baby is 2 months old and struggling with sleep issues.
Hope this advice helps and you all get some rest!
Dear Emma, your videos are so super helpful!! Thank you so much 🙏
You're so welcome!
Nice video.thank you 🙏
Omg this video is such a great help..all my family members were suggesting me to keep my baby awake all day so that she would sleep in night..somehow I knew that waking awake my daughter for whole day would definitely make her upset but didnt know that medical logic behind that ..now I know it..and before I used to think turning lights on while my baby sleep would not let her scared but now I know turning light dim would make her sleep more peacefully..thanks
So glad I could help! Sounds like you are reading your little one well.
All of your videos are amazing but this one…THIS ONE is the ONE. people don’t tell you this before having a child. I was a nanny for 6 years with 5 kids and never even knew about awake windows!Life changing revelation. Thank you.
Hello Katelynn
How are you doing today?
Thank you 💝
I needed this! My baby would here alot even dyring feeding and it concerned me but thrn i realized she would only do it when she was half asleep and tired. The rem sleep makes more sense to me mow thank you ! I was too quick to pick up my baby too and then wondered why she'd only nap for 10-20 mins and sleep for 2-3.5 hrs. Hopefully ill have a happier more well rested baby after this.
Also is there anything you can share aout babies sleeping with their eyes partially open ? Im sure its because shes tired too but iñl be mich better about letting her sleep now that i know all of this ! Thank you for debunking those old wives tales too
No worries at all. Hope the tips help!
Thank you! Struggling to figure this all out with my 3 week old!! 😬 Question - what is the difference between their daytime sleep and nightime sleep cycle? Should night sleeps be longer? But the baby doesn't know it's night, so why would he sleep longer? During the day, I weave in some "play" time between sleeps which I don't do at night. Is that really it? At night are we trying to just sleep-nurse-sleep-nurse?
Congratulations on the arrival of your little one! I have made a video on newborn sleep (czcams.com/video/PCh1xWs9G-s/video.html) and one on 7 newborn sleep tips (czcams.com/video/SfCxUG1nE84/video.html) which I think answers your questions. Hope that helps!
I second all your points!
Thanks a lot,I have a two months old baby and you have really helped me
You’re welcome 😊
Thank you so much for this!!! Very helpful!
You're so welcome!
Emma Hubbard can you make a video on techniques on *how to lay a baby* into their cot! So many parents, including me, struggle to get the baby down as they cry immediately when they know their going onto thier back and in.
Very nice information. Thank you
Thanks, this is very educating.im a new mom i often make the mistakes of picking up my baby too soon when they are having a REM sleep.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank u so much.
Thanks thanks hugely, i have a two weeks baby and now we enjoy sleep at night in peace 🙏
That's so great to hear. Also huge congratulations on the birth of your little one!
This was helpful, we’re going to try this starting tonight for our 7 week old. Out of those 6 we were doing 3 of those things. 😮
Good luck!!
Youre right about the myths and old wives tales. Its absolutely ridiculous the advice ive been given in the past 3 months
I honestly think everyone does - I did it too! Hope the tips in this video have helped 😁
Thank you so much this video was helpful🙏
It’s my pleasure.
immediately subscribed. thank you!!!
Awesome! Thank you!
Thank you, liked the video a lot! Will there be another one for babies 4+ month old?
Thanks so much for ur video just what I was looking for to show his dad bc he wants me to keep him up more durring the day but he's only 3 weeks old
I hope it helps!
Wonderful !!!! Many thanks
my pleasure!
I hope this was published 7mos ago! It would really helped me a lot with my new born. It's still helpful though.
OMGAWD the timing of you releasing this video is such a massive coincidence. Thank you 😊
You're so welcome!
So crazy! I’ve been struggling and even researching for help!
Thanks for your videos, it really helps so much, great advices 😍😍
You are so welcome!
I love you and your helpful tips
Ok but what if every time you put your baby down to sleep, they sleep for 5 min and wake up screaming that we aren’t holding them? You didn’t really address that
I’m having this problem 😩
@@rara3768 Me too!!! I have a 10 day old and she will only sleep in her bassinet for like 20 minutes at a time
I am also having this issue
@@jerrianne9885 Probably something else going on? Soiled diaper, hungry, needs comforting, etc. Ours does this and after some white noise and arm swinging she's usually out. Good luck.
Does she have gas, mine does that when she needs to be burped again
Very informative! Thank you
My pleasure!
Thank you very much for these very valuable things
It’s my pleasure!
Great video, thank you.
Glad you liked it!
Thank you for that last comment! With my first baby I stressed out so much because he wouldn't sleep before 10pm. Over time I saw that as he was awake longer during the the day, he went to sleep earlier at night. It was like every extra 15 minutes awake lead to a bed time that was 15mins earlier. Finally at around 5 months he started sleeping at around 6pm, it was like a light switch, boom, asleep. But no one ever said that it was normal! I needed to hear it was normal
⁰
Thank you so much.❤, I am new mom and this video really helps me alot
I'm so glad!
Sincèrement merci
You've helped me so much with your videos (first time mum), both my baby and I are happy because of your many helpful tips 😊 I've recommended your channel to others too 👍🏾
That's so lovely to hear! I am so glad I have been able to help just a little bit!
@@EmmaHubbard more than just a little bit😊
Thank you, really helpful
You're welcome!
Thank you for the video, could u please do a Video for helping 15 mon old to sleep and between nap transitions. Thank u
Thank you . Your video is very helpful
Glad it was helpful!
When it comes to putting them early to bedtime- my baby is now 4 months old, and he's starting to have longer afternoon nap, usually between 2/3pm to 5pm. Then he's awake till 8pm when he starts to feel tired and ready to go to sleep after taking a shower. Then I put him to bedtime sleep and he wakes up after 10min or an hour and is ready to play. I would normally respond to him with turning the lights on and play with him until he is really ready to fall asleep again, that can be at 10pm or 11. But last two nights I didn't turn the lights on, it was dark in the room and I started to sing him lullabies for him to fall back to sleep. First night he didn't like it, was kind of refusing it, kicking arms and legs and I felt sad like I was doing something against his will. But last night I kinda wanted to repeat that and see if there might be some changes, he was again ready to play but I sang to him again and he was calm in my hands, sometimes looking around the room and fell back to sleep. What should I do, should I respond to his readiness to play and turn the lights on, or keep up with this kinda 'teaching him when is the time to go to bedtime' routine? I would appreciate your advice very much❤
Wow so helpful thank you
No worries at all!
Your video is really helpful. Would you do one video about the sleep cycle of babies who are 6-12 mths? My son is 8 mo old, would love some sleeping tips.
I second this!!
Yes please!!
Yes!!!
Pleaseee
Same
Having a half Thai baby and also living in Thailand, the crazy things I’ve heard from my wife’s parents say for home remedies is um... Well, let’s just say as an American they are a bit odd... To say the least. Thank god for CZcams and your channel, I’ve watched a few of your videos and it’s nice to know I’ve picked up on a few things just on trial and error, but the sleep cues you mentioned make a whole lot of sense especially the staring off into the distance and pulling their ears/scratching their face as I’ve just fought getting my 6 week old daughter to bed for the better part of an hour. I thought the scratching her ears meant she was hungry or gassy, but now I know that it probably means she is tired. Thank you again
Yup same experience with my newborn
Hi... Thanks for sharing this information... How long should i wait before picking the baby up if they start to cry while sleeping?
I never had any issues getting my 2 boys to sleep when they were new born, but I see my sister in law make many of these mistakes. She relies on my niece falling asleep while driving or by fighting with an over tired baby until she gives in
Thank you its helpful to me
You are welcome
Just woke up from my first night at home with my newborn. It did not go great. Excellent timing with this video! 🙃
Congratulations on the arrival of your little one! I hope this video helps in the first few months!
Omg this I'd do helpful i am a first time mom and this tips ate great I'll implement them to my one month old baby
Hope it helps!
Thank you so much 😊
You're welcome 😊
